It made the Pentagon look both imperial and incompetent at the same time,”

Hogwash. It was clear to me it was facilities and since I knew we do this and they train here, and we do training with them over in other countries too, that's just bunk.

One time the Navy was having an exercise in the computer on the Mediterranean. Some of the ships and arms were actually in the sea in the area. The results of the exercise would assist your career. Well, the opponent (another American Officer) decided to take everything he had and fire it simultaneously at the aircraft carrier. Just focus on the one target. He took it out (on the computer).

The result was an upset, and somehow the effect of the games didn't affect anyone's career, but it was a big deal. And the Chinese took notice.

After that, the Chinese strategy over in Lake China (Southern China Sea) was to have hundreds of launchers and rockets. They're gonna have a thousand rockets, etc., headed for each ship - that seems to be the plan. An effective plan. AFAIK we still don't have any really good defense for that. Anybody?
