How often do non-nuke warships have to re-fuel under peacetime
situations. How would this vary under wartime conditions?
Is the capacity of re-fueling vessels a major consideration in
warfighting capability? Is the vulnerability of said vessels a
serious problem?
I never hear of such vessels, does the US have enough?
Where do THEY refill?


they replenish at sea as they always have.
most USN ships are non-nukes.

Like COLE?


Peter Skelton

yes, like the Cole

So Aden is an AOR?


Peter Skelton


oh, i thought you were refering to its propulsion.
sometimes ships aren't with fleets and go to ports.
but do you think every ship visits port to top off?

Of course not, the claim was that they always replenish at sea.


i should have realized what you were up to, you love to try to score
with
strawman arguments.

OK show one such case?

Try to be less of a bloody idiot.


Peter Skelton

besides this one"? they are too legion o mention.

I'll take that as a flat statement that you've been caught in a
error, promoted it to lie and have moved on to invective.

so you think all ships refuel in port?

Now that's a strawman.


Peter Skelton

they are your stock in trade. and you began by disputing ships refuel at
sea. so therefore using your own logic no ship refuels at sea.
