DOH!
The lone Chinese vessel slipped past at least a dozen other American warships which were supposed to protect the carrier from hostile aircraft or submarines.
And the rest of the costly defensive screen, which usually includes at least two U.S. submarines, was also apparently unable to detect it.

According to senior Nato officials the incident caused consternation in the U.S. Navy.
I bet !
Bit disconcerting for the rest of us too.

I wonder what the result would have been if they sank the yank aircraft carrier. Methinks that if it had stayed underwater it'd have got away.

Apparently this was a while ago.. theyve managed to keep it pretty well under wraps for a year..
Uncle Sam's Navy compromised?! Egads! I suppose at least they still have one to be compromised...
