This American Strategy Didn't Work On the Soviet Union and It Won't Work On China Either
*Michael Peck* *Cold War History, * The lesson is don't overestimate your opponent. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* If it turns out that China’s naval power has been overblown, and American defense dollars were better spent elsewhere—perhaps on aircraft, or drones, or cyberwarfare—then the Chinese navy will have won a victory even before the first shot is fired. Back in the 1980s, a war with the Soviet Union seemed like a naval nightmare.
