Could have imagined this happening as little as 3 years ago.
An ally sending a nuclear deterrent into our waters as a message/warning to the US. This normally happens to countries like Iran or North Korea
Still hasnβt happened. This was a sales pitch for a Canadian defence contract.
Hey. Guess what? At the moment, we're the bad guys...
At the moment? When was there ever a time the US weren't the bad guys?
Briefly the us was the good guys when we killed a bunch of slavers and then when we killed a bunch of fascists. Those were exceptions to the rule though.
Looks at founding fathers... Yeah killed the slavers. Puts blanket over Native Indians. Hides Chinese rail workers under rug. Renames Irish "Indentured workers"
They also killed the Nazis, except for the ones that were useful, of course.
I kinda root for them in the war of independence
Yup
To be accurate, this is a nuclear propelled attack submarine. It does not carry nuclear warheads and is not what we normally call a "nuclear deterrent".
I believe you, but do you have a source? That's a pretty big distinction when you're calling it a "nuclear attack submarine"!
I used to look for submarines for a living. But you don't have to believe me:
