Hypersonic missiles could destroy every major city in the US in 20 minutes. Just have to put a nuclear warhead in them. The US is deploying hypersonic missiles too. This doesn’t change anything except that in the case of Armageddon we will have half as much time to find someone to bang before we die.
Why does this feel like they want to throw even more money at the military industrial complex?
Exactly - they can’t use Russia’s military strength as the boogie-man any longer.
This guy can’t even name a single country in ASEAN but is giving advice on china, a neighbour of ASEAN. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/commentary/trump-defence-secretary-pete-hegseth-cannot-name-asean-country-4862576
Russia can wipe out US in 15mins using all their nukes in a suicide attack. worry about Russia first. Defeat russia in Ukraine first.
Him not being able to name a single ASEAN country should have instantly destroyed his career. It’s literally in the name so it just means he doesn’t even know what it is and then that absolute moron continued to name all other neighboring countries that are not part of ASEAN lmao.
America will never recover from this. It secured its image as a disgruntled band of intellectual retards for the next several decades at least.
From now on you must view all of their words and actions through the lens of a fascist dictatorship. This is almost certainly propaganda intended to increase fear of Chinese supremacy and using that fear as an excuse to invade Panama.
I hard doubt the US doesn’t have classified hypersonic missile tech, and even if they don’t, this admin won’t stop maintaining, building, or deploying these “vulnerable” billion dollar aircraft carriers. Everything conservatives and DOGE cut is everything that benefits the working class, and increases their quality of life and economic mobility. They never cut anything that enables their authoritarian capabilities.
Don’t forget how they were able to slap a basically poor-only tax with their tariff bullshit.
How the hell would this guy know? He’s not qualified to run a game of RISK much less comment on anything that really involves defense
Hegseth himself is a bigger threat to the US than China will ever be.
Why would they bother when Trump is going to sink the whole country?
and that is putins plan essentially, needs USA out of the way so russia can reclaim former soviet states.
Never interrupt the enemy when he is making a mistake.
“We need to enslave and control the population to survive against a perceived or projected foreign enemy.” Translation from Trump cabinet language to English.
I think the correct question here is:
“Why? They couldn’t before you were in charge.”
Biden didn’t leave the keys to the anti sink plugs I guess.
Thanks Obama
I’ve heard bullshit before. This sounds exactly like that
China watching the Houthis fail to hit a single ship with a 30 missile salvo:
Even with supersonic anti ship missiles, successfully attacking the US navy is notoriously difficult, to the point that they’ve actually averted invading Taiwan unless some golden opportunity falls into their lap.
This article’s been here for almost an hour, are the aircraft carriers still okay?
Press X to doubt.
To be fair, he was completely hammered when he said that and doesn’t remember it at all.
I just imagine that almost all large military vehicles are sitting ducks to drones and such. Just look at Ukraine vs. Russia’s navy.
Not a great comparison when you consider Russia’s navy hasn’t improved much from the Cold War days. Their tech is old.
