China Suddenly Building Fleet Of Special Barges Suitable For Taiwan Landings
(www.navalnews.com)
Nah he's against wars. Well unless he can bullying them like panama or Greenland
It's a shame how much human ingenuity is only deemed viable (from a resource expenditure standpoint) in a military context. A barge with a retractable cable-stsyef bridge is cool AF. Fighter aircraft probably feel amazing to fly - their performance characteristics must be fun AF to experience. But they're so resources intensive to operate that it only makes sense in a military context.
You don't build the world's largest navy because you don't intend to use it.
Well… fuck
