    USN Missions around Taiwan

    Agreed that the most likely next step after a blockade is an amphibious assault. Which is why 7th Fleet and SUBPAC are keeping a close eye on what's going on. Declaring a blockade would probably very quickly result in SUBPAC declaring unrestricted submarine warfare.

    Virginia block III/IV vs Astute

    I would like to make a comparison of these two submarines. I mean sonar system, acoustic technology , speed and overall technology comparison. I would also like to know what is amazing about ssn 790 south dakota that everyone writes about some acoustic advantage over other subs.
