Putting it bluntly, the IN faces some major geographical challenges in dealing with the Chinese threat; namely, the confined waters through which it must pass to access the Pacific (unless it takes an impractically long route). With the US-DoD being hard-up for cash over the next decade or so, perhaps we should see if India is interested in leasing some space or facilities on Guam. Obama's "Pacific-Pivot" is fine by me; but we need to unload some of our security burden vs China on others if we intend to last them out over the long-haul. Giving India a piece of this process would be a good place to start.
