They will delay the invasion from breakfast to early brunch.

Oh. So you’re a moron. Fair enough.

This is beyond stupid, fighting trillion dollar defense countries with a pea shooter.

We aren’t fighting trillion dollar defense countries, son. We are readying for anything. The subs aren’t just to deter, they are mostly used for recon.

Knowing what others are doing is quite important in any battle/situation. You can’t know if you don’t have the tools. Would you prefer us to be uninformed?

If we had about a dozen nukes across the country, not one would touch us, but the US won’t ever let that happen.

Agreed. Mutually assured destruction is the best deterrence. However thinking the US will stop us from having nukes if Britain/Europe provides them or if we step it up and make our own, is extra sad. We have the 8th largest uranium deposits in the world. US is 55th. Out of 59. The US doesn’t have that power. Stop giving it to them. We have everything we need here.

Your mentality is a reason our military is in shambles. Defeated before you ever start a fight.

We have a northern border. Northwest passage will be opening up soon due to climate change. Arctic ocean is already full of subs (Ruskies, Yanks, Brits, etc). Once the passage opens it’s a new front to defend.

The arctic is packed with minerals and oil. They (everyone) want those resources.

God damn right subs will help.
