jgn persoal, AMDK said it was intentional

i read before in some article by an ex US navy general or something ranting abt US Navy's ASW capabilities, he said in actuality US never cared nor focused on ASW so while on paper all their ASW gear looks impressive and stuff, but none of them performed well during training exercises against fellow NATO subs

he mentioned that few years ago there was an ASW training exercise where the US carrier fleet and escorts are tasked to detect, track and defeat the opponent's sub. suffice to say the US carrier fleet failed badly and apparently the Norwegians who were tasked as the opponents, snuck in undetected and "sunk" the carrier unopposed
