#9 It is acceptable to quote part of an article under copyright law. Sometimes I'd like to have an idea of what I'm going to click on before I click on it. Kind of, to know what's going on and to see if it's interesting or not. Sort of the "head line" of the article, if you get my drift. This "head" should be descriptive text. Anyway, crazy idea I had. |

#7 Among the interesting tibits in this article is that the Chinese now have their own LCAC. (Air cushion landing vehicle). Pictures of it at the link. This makes the threat of invading Taiwan much more credible. An 18,000 ton amphibious assault ship is pretty formidable as well. |

#6 Gromky - I don't want to put Fred into a copyright violation situation so rather than re-mis-write some article I just post the link. |

#5 It would be nice to have an article instead of a cryptic headline If you click the cryptic title inside the Rantburg article it will open up the original article that the title was taken from in another browser. In this case, it will probably answer all your questions. |

#4 Or is their intent to get in the way to make an attack on Iran a little more complicated? |

#3 Naval prOn at the link, also. It means the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy may be for fighting, unlike the US Navy. |
