We can't live under the threat of a c*nt because he's threatening nuclear Armageddon.

It definitely has limitations, but it is a generational leap in China's carrier capability and the next hull will be nuclear powered.

Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

on paper its better then what theyve had so far but still a far cry from a US carrier.
more importantly Im still not convinced that the chinese have the experience or expertise to conduct long term blue water carrier operations.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

According to the video, that's not their intended use for this ship. It's defensive to protect their assets close-in, the 'First Island Chain' region. For that it looks more than capable especially as more are on the way.  :hide:  I'm wondering why their ships and planes look so much like ours? Can't they steal tech more original-looking?

If I remember correctly doesn't this new one use more modernized deck catapult technology too?

yes, their version of Emals like we have on the Fords.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.
