Antiship missiles can be captured by moderrn air defence systems. China destroyers have sophisticated defence systems against aerial attacks. Not all missiles will find the targets. Moreover, as China has numerical superiority, their number of missiles will overwhelm ours.As of today, our 228 anti-ship missiles launched from air, surface, sub surface are more than enough to sink their entire South Sea Fleet. By 2016, our 396 anti-ship missiles launched from air, surface, and sub surface are more than enough to sink their East Sea Fleet and South Sea Fleet together. Their operation in the Spratly relies heavily and mostly on surface ships; we can easily counter that with salvos of anti-ship missiles.
Do you guys realize that had we bought 50 Su-30 instead of 6 submarines, we have extra platform that can launch an extra 200 anti-ship missiles? I'm not too sure about the decision to buy the 6 submarines.
I am a fan of submarines. Subs armed with cruise missiles and torpedos are a better choice. Once locked, the torpedos have a higher chance to hit the targets. In the WW II, the Germans subs were a nightmare for the British fleets. The Navy should buy more Subs.
by the way, why don´t you select country flags?
