Experts predicted the defeat of the United States in a military conflict with China in the Asia-Pacific region

The United States is unable to confront China in the western Pacific and will be defeated in the event of an open conflict. This was stated by specialists from the US Study Center at the University of Sydney in Australia.

Experts predicted the defeat of the United States in a military conflict with China in the Asia-Pacific region




According to Australian experts, the United States has lost all its advantage in the western part of the Pacific Ocean and is no longer able to resist China, which is constantly building up its forces in this region. Experts call the cause of the loss of superiority a financial crisis that arose due to "constant delays and unpredictability of funds."

The US defense strategy in the Indo-Pacific is experiencing an unprecedented crisis. This is basically a crisis born of a mismatch between Washington’s strategic goals and available funds

- says the study.

Experts point out that because of this, the Pentagon has no opportunity to increase the size of the army and purchase new weapons, and the cancellation and delay of the introduction of new programs led to a lag in the modernization of the armed forces. Also, the lack of funding, according to the Australians, is influenced by the continued involvement of the United States in military conflicts in the Middle East, lasting more than 20 years and distracting funds that could be directed to "confrontation with superpowers."

In connection with the loss of US positions in the western Pacific, experts urge Washington, as well as its allies, Japan and Australia, to revise their military budgets upwards, in order to counter the rapidly developing China. According to reports, the Chinese armed forces have already deployed about 1,5 thousands of short-range ballistic missiles, 450 medium-range missiles, 160 intermediate-range missiles and hundreds of long-range ground-based cruise missiles and continue to build up forces.

Previously, the Pentagon announced that they intend to mark out missile launchers in the Asia-Pacific region for medium-range missiles "to counter China’s aggressive plans."

    Well, that’s the answer to why the US withdrew from the agreement on medium-range missiles. Russia has nothing to do with it at all. And if the states do not deploy such systems in Europe, then this assumption will be confirmed.

      Who knows what is already deployed there, i.e. what is actually in the missile defense silos.

        Some "experts" expressed their opinion

        The fact is that the USA, withdrawing from the agreement, noted that its participants were the Russian Federation and the USA, and China, having the appropriate technology, was not included in it. So they came up with the idea to withdraw from the agreement and sign it again, expanding the number of participants, China refused. Now the US moves are predictable.

          The idea is simple, demonizing Russia, mattresses are squeezing out of the EU an increase in contributions to the NATO budget, and Japan and Australia are not included in this gang, hence it is necessary to demonize China, so that allies in the Asia-Pacific region can be encouraged to increase military budgets and, as a result, to buy mattress mattresses. weapons. And any expert opinion is ordered by the paying one ... Therefore, IMHO, the main message in this "expert" opinion:
          experts urge Washington, as well as its allies, Japan and Australia, to review military budgets upward

    but I’m wondering how the deployment of coastal defense complexes of its coast and short-range missiles suddenly became aggressive plans.
    Of course, China has aggressive plans, but why summarize all its activity under them?

    US Center for the Study of the University of Sydney in Australia.
    Even in Australia, they doubted the power of the United States. The Americans did not understand that it is impossible to grasp the immensity. It is not as easy as it seems to be everywhere and at once, and even to threaten with one's military "might". Having once swung to conquer the world, tomorrow you can lose what you have. And such examples are enough in world history. Even with the American economy "not a cap for Senka."

      They conducted an objective analysis. The pace of building fleets, missiles.
      Americans are also soberly assessing the situation. China has become an economic
      superpower and military power number two in the world. Russia is supported
      only ICBMs, while China has everything in large quantities.

          Maybe only in the land component. In the fleet, they are still significantly behind the United States. And on aviation too. According to the combat experience, the gap is significant. They also have little ICBMs. But the Chinese armed forces are growing (qualitatively) very quickly.

    The message is clear - the military is hungry for more money. When will they be enough? It’s truly said that there is never much money. Or maybe another .. Each empire has a moment when it’s pay, don’t pay, and not feed the horse .. maybe right now? Yes, no-her, just the greed of those snickering. and they take on a lot of things ..

    "in the beginning there was a word" and it sounded, the China-America conflict is inevitable like a sunrise. There is nowhere for the world economy to develop in its current form, the markets vacated after the collapse of the USSR have been consumed, and the population's credit is higher than the roof. Stimulate demand, write off debts and shovel the structure of the world economy can war.

    Is not a fact!!
    The Chinese are also not supermen (not in essence, not in spirit).
    And if you look into history - the great Chinese armies defeated other Chinese armies, and China always lost to strong external enemies. And if someone won, it was only with our help.

    It is strange that experts did not take into account the combat experience of the United States in that region.

    2 MB with Japan, Korea, Vietnam.
    And all these are very large conflicts. And supply, and logistics, and the transfer of an armada of aircraft, soldiers, ships, etc.
    Repair and maintenance in the same areas.

    China has no such experience.
    It’s impossible to cover missiles with all targets, even for political reasons.
    It’s just to incite the whole region and get a sea blockade.

      but China doesn’t need everyone. He has strategic control plans for Southeast Asia. Having created a total military advantage, he will be able to dominate any possible enemy in the region and at the same time make the United States think about the need to intervene in the problems of the allies (for example, Taiwan).

    Honestly, China does not know how to fight, and their notorious number is a weak argument. What Japan has proven. My personal opinion is that China is the worst enemy for us than the United States. In the Far East, there is a so-called "Tor" google what it is ... Just the sale of our lands to China. There can be no union between the Russian Federation and China, it is not our friend at all. Look at their cards, everything will become clear. The most acceptable result is the collapse of China. It will be good for Russia.

      Stupidity.

      Partly true for the Far East.
      The most acceptable result is the collapse of China. For Russia it will be good.

      No doubt, but disintegrating the PRC is now much more difficult than destroying the power of the Fed owners.

    This is called - "I walked widely and tore my trousers". In fact, the crisis there is not in the weakness of the US Navy, but in the absence of an aggressive proxy to create tension. There is no one for the Americans to carry the "banner of democracy", and the general concept does not allow themselves to get involved in a global open conflict.

    Of course, the Chinese are stupid more. if every Chinese man over 12 years old is given a submachine gun ... then any attack by the coolest marine corps will be drowned. and without an infantry attack, not a single territory has yet been captured. there can be no victory in superpower wars. only damage (up to total damage) is possible. even the Vietnamese on the basis of the states ass kicked ... and even China will simply bury their army.

    Another nonsense about the military confrontation between the United States and China. The expansion of China is aimed primarily at Russia, Kazakhstan, Siberia, the Far East, and with luck, the Urals will continue. Attempts to present the USA and China as military rivals and participants in a future war are a distraction from China’s threat to Russia first of all. Daman is not enough?
