My favorite quote from the article:

I didn't know that the SCS was 'hostile' unless we are at war or it is meant in the purely 'dark & stormy night' type hostile environment.

Not a very good article, long on conditionals, speculation and irrelevant bits. Short on facts or analysis.

There is something poignant about seeing such a sleek bird of prey thrashing in the sea, all of its prowess consigned to the damp grasp of Father Neptune. Glad the pilot is OK and prayers for swift recovery of all injured.

May be the most beautiful ever written on this forum.

They may have no interest but the humiliation of the Chinese getting it first should be enough to have several US commanders hauled for this newest fiasco. No wonder why we can't seem to do anything right as a country and as a military.
