First of all, I don’t think this Chinese sub surfacing near a US fleet is a big deal, and people in the know seem to agree.
But I do have to wonder — how many of the people who have spent the last few years peeing their pants over how much dolphins and whales don’t like active sonar — the only kind that can reliably detect a modern diesel sub running on batteries — are willing to take this as proof that maybe effective sensor usage in our military is more important than whale comfort?
