Hi Jay,

I'm wondering if these Stratfor pontificators are worth the big bucks. Seems to me that Asia Times covers much the same topics with much more verve and with much less reliance upon the subscriber's shekels.

All you need to know is this. Recently one of the twelve U.S. strike force carriers was tethered to a oiler dispensing jet A and roaring below the radar and barely above the deck was a Sukhoi visitor:
sukhoi.ru

With a friendly wag of the wings, this bogey just told the Admiral that he was dead. Figuratively speaking.

Then the Sukhoi disappeared below the radar in an instant.

The whole episode lasted less than 70 seconds.

It was simply a proof-of-concept exercise. In less than a minute, 8% of the U.S. Navy's Carrier Strike Force could have been stricken.
