      The USN has literal fleets of underway replenishment ships. It’s a concept they pioneered and essentially perfected, and it’s been done for decades. Logistics is hard, but the pentagon used to be world-beatingly good at it. Turns out that when you have absolute fuckwits running the show, they can ruin the whole logistical pipeline pretty fucking quick, though.

      Look at you giving the USG the benefit of he doubt. Logistics were handled in WWII, yet this much smaller conflict cannot be handled?

      Get your heads out of the asses of the establishment, of both parties if you accept their excuses and projections of blame. We have all the wrong people in charge, it’s a lack of will and incentives, not a lack of capability that has led to this shit show.
