Should look at the maps with that in mind when you see where Chinese vessels have gone down. I quote you here "extent of unconventionality they are willing to go to in order to subdue a technologically superior foe". I've written before about the USN's unconventional-warfare cell that is working hard to come up with the devious in order to develop countermeasures. Now, the good news is that Northrop Grumman and someone else are working on LIDAR that triples that and yet has it all in a low observable housing for exquisite UAV (as well as a giraffe-necked system that is for surface combatants.)
My nightmare fuel is a long-dwell seaborne mine-type attack with the device popping up after 3 to 4 years sat on the sea bed inside a rusted out sunken trawler that went down with a mayday.
