you put the kilos and yuans and songs in strategic positions so the carriers dont go there, not to ambush them.

Are you talking about making a perimeter with subs that USN won't risk crossing? While a pack of subs can pose a threat to USN fleet, a lone sub (And theyd have to be pretty lone to establish such a wide perimeter) is more or less a sitting duck, no matter how silent it is. It will get detected before USN gets in range to be threatened by its torpedoes and since its one lone sub, the fleet will be able to dispose of it promptly.

So far as I know, no conversions are completed yet. So, SSBN.

The Ohio will be going to sea for initial SSGN trials in October. The Florida is right behind her.

I think that is the SSGN Ohio. The US will not forward deploy one of its strategic nuclear assets

Once completed with SSGN conversion, the boat will no longer be considered a strategic nuclear asset. The conversion is complete and the Ohio is going to sea in October. The USS Florida conversion will be following very soon.

I guess the USN got their arsenal ship with the SSGN.
I think those ships carry more than 200 tomahawk cruise missiles.

One hundred fifty four (154).

errr.... wow and this has been around for only a day or two...

China should increase conventional use of Missile Destroyers and Submarines, nail as much as you can and ambush all the othes you cant go head to head with... so yea it'd would be like the long march on the sea... China still have homefield advantage but China needs to work on organization or a use for everything piece of equipment instead...

you can see a sub from hundreds of miles away with sinar, but can you do anything about it untill its within a few miles?

You cannot see even old subs from hundreds of miles away. New quieted subs can get in within a few kilometers without being detected! And generally, subs can detect sufarve vessels before surface vessels can detect subs.

A US CV(N) won't be sunk by the PLAN. It can be put in flames, and be knocked out of commission, if everything goes well with the PLAN tactics, and there are no equipment malfunctions, but with the build of a carrier, sinking it would require dozens of torpedoes and missiles.

Make that hundreds dude. A US carrier is pretty damn big. The best the PLAN could hope for is to make sure the carrier is operational killled. If the PLAN wants to sink it, then they might as well hit the carrier group with a nuke warhead since that is the easiest way to eliminate it. And that is not a good idea at all. So instead of sinking it, how many Moskits and C-803's would it take to disable the carrier for several days?

Hit it with a very small nuke, and tell them it was a newly devleoped top-secret warhead that is nonnuclear.
