Since China is topical and tensions have been at the highest since the 1950s, lets have an SBF challenge on the likely scenarios that will likely unfold. Its open to everyone but those military background will certainly have an advantage but they will bring a sense of realism to this game. Winner will get a points voucher from Sam.

What are the likely consequences if the US 7th Fleet sinks the Chinese Aircraft carrier Liaoning next to one of the recently built man made islands in the contested South China Sea.

Note:
1. This is a war game and hypothetical, so do not come back with comments that US will not sink the Chinese carrier.
2. No nuclear weapon was used in the sinking, just conventional weapons
3. Leave it to the imagination on the immediate and localised events that led to the sinking but do not spend too much time on its analysis as the focus is on what would take place next.
4. Points to consider
a) Chinese psyche
b) Chinese military capacity vis a vis their opponents
c) Chinese appetite to engage in warfare

Good luck.
