I think America becoming a litlle bit more "irrlevant" would save us alot of money and lives. Most of what we do just gets us a reputation for meddling or being biased, and even more enemies, if thats even possible any more.
China has much to be bitter about...the Japanese kicked their arss in the past and were absolutely brutal. They have not forgotten the rape of Nanking.
Just as the Jews have not forgotten about the Holocaust.
In any case, the Japanese are tough and will defend themselves...we just need to supply them with the tools....might be good for our war based economy.
Big war ships can be sunk easily with radar evading missiles launched from land or small boats. Example - French exocet missile and the HMS Sheffield in the Falkland war.
BAM!...there goes several hundred million dollars!

not really, the British didn't have the Aegis Combat System. almost every major battle group in the U.S. Navy has the Aegis system.
The British also did not have the Phalanx CIWS (Close In Weapons System)
which we ('merica) sold to Japan's Navy a long time ago. So the Japanese Navy is fairly well protected.
These systems not only work, they work astonishingly well
Formidable in the sense that there is a billion of them or so. Human waves don't work anymore though, as we have mini guns, vulcan cannons and cluster bombs for this.
In the Korean war, our GI's couldn't shoot fast enough and would urinate on their machine guns to cool off the barrels.
The Chinese were not good strategists or even good warriors. The Japanese and the Mongols kicked their a$$ all the time...thats why they built that ridiculous wall.
