This is sad.
I guess it's because aerial warfare now completely dominates all advanced fighting. Why would you make a massive target that if you send outside your range of protection, virtually invisible planes that fly at the top of the atmosphere can simply rain hell on it until it floats no more.
They still never had anything on the same level as the Yamato
Most navies are shit these days, and the UK no longer owns like a third of the world, so they have less reason to project power across the globe like that.>>996see, this is why the US navy operates how it doesthe power projection capabilities are mostly the result of carriers
China built a huge navy.
>>1004And you still think it stands a chance?
>>1004>>1015huge navy vs waifuz with gunswwwwwwwwwww

>>1038Hopefully it retruns under Hellenistic control
>>1004>>1015JMSDF is respectable.
>>1055Embarrassing that it is dwarfed by China. Japan needs to get their shit together if they want to take taiwan before chuugoku.
>>1058, my man, the mass majority of the tonnage in the Chinese fleet is FISHING BOATS.
>>1001An unexpected assist from Sweden?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dfh1aSdxr9U
Somehow, this ship is classified as a "destroyer", even though it's larger than the Soryu and the Hiryu
I'm a fan of their new もがみ frigate.https://nitter.net/AyakashiKamo/status/1928598548834062668
>>1208I'm not sure if it will be able to defend itself if it's doing an un-escorted recon mission

The Royal Australian Navy just celebrated their 125th anniversary with a big international fleet review.https://www.navy.gov.au/community-engagement/125th-anniversary/fleet-review-ships-vantage-pointshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4Li9FG98XU

The Royal Navy is in bad shape.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYkbhf_qxrM
>>1423Terrible quality image, but I hope whenever they fight somebody they use that 300 year old sailing warship at the top.
>>1425It might be old, but it could still ruin some turd worlder's day.https://www.facebook.com/richpatterson.leeonsolent/videos/hms-victory-64-gun-broadside-18th-september-2009/341483047139941/
It would be awesome to be apart of that ship's crew.
>>1427I regret posting this video. It's so loud that it damaged my earphones. Beware.
>>1208>>1220Australia and Japan have signed a contract for the export of 3 upgraded Mogami frigates. The deal is worth about $10 billion dollars, and it's Japan's largest arms export since WW2.https://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2026/04/australia-signs-contract-with-japan-for-three-upgraded-mogami/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07jddVm92k4
>>1440I would prefer them to be importing, but I guess it makes money
>>1444South Korea has been making a fuckton of money being an arms dealer recently. They're selling artillery, tanks, ships, and planes all over the world. I saw a joke that said if WW3 breaks out, it'll be fought with Korean weapons. Exporting weapons is something Japan was not allowed to do until very recently.
>>1446Hopefully Japan can get back on track. What will the money go to?
>>1447
