Navy to Add New Subs

The United States Navy will add new submarines by 2045.

According to Fox News:

New Virginia-class attack submarines are being built with a massive increase in firepower, much more sensitive and with powerful sonar detection and a new generation of computing, navigation, and command and control systems … and the Navy does not have enough of them.

It is a challenge that the Navy’s recently released 30-year shipbuilding plan seeks to correct, by calling for an increase in submarine production and acquisition in coming years to address emerging threats, meet growing requests from Combatant Commanders and greatly expand the mission scope for attack submarines to include more reconnaissance and clandestine undersea patrols.

The prospect of a rapid uptick in attack submarine production has been discussed and advocated now for several years by both members of Congress and senior U.S. Navy leaders who have for quite some time voiced concerns about the size and reach of the service’s submarine fleet in coming years.

As more Los Angeles class submarines, which have functioned well for decades, retire, there will be a fast-evolving and pressing need for larger numbers of submarines to replace them and also advance the technical curve by engineering a new generation of attack submarine capability.

Congress and the Navy appear committed to build 3 per year starting in 2025-2026.

Worse, they will use it against the entire world (see my comment elaborating on that)!

The Democrats won’t pay for it. “30 year plan”??? The only thing JoeBama will endorse is the purchase of a “Welcome” mat…in Mandarin.

SUPPORT THE REAL PRESIDENT. BIDEN IS PLACEBO MAN.

TRUMPETEERS ARE LAW ABIDING PEACE LOVING FAMILY PEOPLE WITH REAL CHILDREN. THIS WAS A COMMUNIST STUNT AS WAS CHARLOTTESVILLE VA, ORCHESTRATED BY THE MAYOR AND THE GOVERNOR. WHAT FOOL ALLOWS RACISTS AND THEIR OPPONENTS TO MINGLE. THE COMMUNISTS CALL THAT A POLITICAL STUNT.

THE OUTCOME WAS PREDICTABLE. ONE VEHICLE BLOCKING THE NARROW STREET WOULD HAVE SAVED THAT POOR GIRLS LIFE. WHAT LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER SHOOTS A DEMONSTRATOR IN THE HEAD AND NECK. NO COP DOES THAT. THE PEACEFUL DEMO WAS INFILTRATED BY COMMUNIST DEMOCRATS WEARING TRUMP GEAR. HITLER DID IT FOR YEARS. ASK HEINRICH SCHUMER. TODAY GEORGIA TOMORROW THE WORLD. SIG DEMOCRAT

Our EXCEPTIONAL Nation has been that which prevents as in our Bible. With our United States of America in the world, the Luciferian Global Governance could not happen, but with it’s awesome power at the control of these Globalists, no nation has the strength and power to resist it being imposed upon them. Before I said that the fate of the world would be decided by the small percentage of undecided “low information voters” as the rest of us largely cancel out each other’s votes. But, now I see the fate of the world will be determined by those who cheated by thwarting the true count of President Donald Trump who really got well over a hundred million votes yet the votes were switched and both sides know it. One side is fine with that believing in their wishes and fantasy (see the Wonder Woman 1984) of all the bribes promised to them for their vote while those who would have won know of the hostile takeover.

Gee whiz that will never happen. Remember Bite Me promised no one making $400,000 per year will pay more taxes.

And if believe that, I will sell you the winning Mega Millions numbers for tonight for only a million bucks.
