Really puts things in persepective.

I have had that page saved for some time. It is direct and concise. When you see that chart with the 12 USN CV's & 12 LHA/LHD type ships..Well simple math tells you that by the worlds own standards the USN has 24 carriers. Besides a nuclear strike how would any nation fight that?

Personally I think the PLAN is planning or building a CV. I also think the PLAN is re-fitting the Varyag. It will probaly be a LPH. Just my guess. when we "China Watchers" will ever see it..Who knows??

Sorry for it being VERY LATE, but Varyag might not be it
