B.C.
Arctic-Specific Challenges:
Ice & Cold: Traditional U.S. surface ships, including escorts, lack ice-hardened hulls and systems to counter ice buildup, unlike Russian vessels.

Escort Vulnerability: Smaller escort ships (destroyers, frigates) struggle with heavy ice and rough seas, facing greater risk.
That can change .

Might be an idea to beef up security on Baffin Island for a bit. Maybe add a night shift.

Thinking it would be hard to tell the difference from Greenland once you were there and what difference would it make to the Chinese?

There was a DEW line station at Fox Bay back when, but unsure what is there now.
