Well I hear you spent a gigantic shitload of your money on buying their subs. Which they will actually man and use so I wasn't sure of the sarcasm. You're on the other side of the globe so why worry? Unless your gov feels the need to be the US spearhead against the evil Yellow Peril. Then you and Taiwan can become the next Ukraine. I'm sure the Americans will also sell you all the arms they can from a safe distance and support you in spirit. /s
