American General: If we are going to fight tomorrow as we fought yesterday, we will lose

31

At the annual conference on aviation, US Air Force Assistant Chief of Staff for Strategy, Integration and Terms of Reference, US Air Force Lieutenant General Clinton Hinote, said that if the United States military does not change, it will be defeated in the future. He believes that without air superiority, America is unable to protect its allies in the Indo-Pacific.

Breaking Defense magazine reports.



If we are going to fight tomorrow as we fought yesterday, we will lose and this is not normal

- said the American general.

He believes that if the United States tried to project its power in the airspace of the Indo-Pacific region right now, it would fail. China would surpass the United States using its geographic position and concentration of forces and resources in the macroregion.

Duke Richardson, a senior US Air Force procurement official, said at the conference that he sees two aspects that could lead the US Air Force to success. The first is the design and development of new aircraft, and the second is the reform of the military procurement system. He believes that when choosing suppliers of new equipment, the armed forces should focus on those who offer the best technical solutions. At the same time, Richardson made it clear that today the US market is occupied by technology giants with which the Department of Defense has been cooperating for many years. This can affect competition and technological innovations not in the best way.

He was also supported by Lieutenant General David Naom, who oversees the allocation of Air Force resources. He believes that obsolete systems, on which money is wasted, should be abandoned.

It is noted that the US Army needs a "restructuring" of the very strategy of warfare.

      Maybe it's not a navel, but cockroaches in your head rustle with their paws? Why would a country that prints world currency have problems with tension? They will print as much as necessary. Others will pay anyway, including us.

    One out of two.
    Or the generals almost openly admit that bullshit is being supplied to the US army, i.e. accuse the leadership of corruption. Either they have not worked out about carrying with corporations and they are promoting a new potential sponsor who also wants to stick to the bottomless defense order.

        And someone was going to attack them? What have they lost there at foreign shores? There will be no fuss and no "protection" is required. It is not the United States that needs to be defended, but defend against them. ps laughing The Taliban did it well.

      They spend 4% of their GDP on war.
      Israel, by comparison, is 7.5%.
      Russia 4.5%.

    So far, the most effective war is the one the West is waging now. The main means of communication are behind them. The USSR did not collapse as a result of hostilities.

      As Vysotsky has a conversation near the TV - You Zin run up against rudeness, you strive to offend Zin, here in a day you tumble like that, you come home, you sit here. Do not forget that with one stroke of a broom, all Russian money in the United States will become American. But children learn tama, not mulberries, what do they teach them tama, and not mulberries? Kids with barrels of jam and gingerbread? Calm or calm down?

      No
      And that’s the point.
      To confirm its superiority, the United States must completely suppress the very possibility of the emergence of any equivalent enemy.
      Otherwise, you have to fight, and here the result is not guaranteed.
      And if the process gets out of control, as it happened with China, then the battle becomes impossible.

    Yes, but the USA has the most modern and perfect capitalism in the world! How did it happen that the most perfect system gave rise to F 35 and other flying trash, and now requires an absolutely non-market restructuring of the procurement system ?! The best technical solutions will not be the cheapest! But if you give more money, it turns out exactly F 35? Oh no no no....

    Fight? With what fright? Nothing to do in Omerik?

    we will lose and this is not normal

    This is just fine. Millions will breathe a sigh of relief.

    two aspects that could lead the US Air Force to success. The first is the design and development of new aircraft, and the second is the reform of the military procurement system.


    New planes? Seriously? They still haven't figured out the Fu-35, they fly on the old B-52 mammoth feces, now give new ones?
    And right there:
    reform of the military procurement system


    They stole and will steal. Lobby at maximum speed.

    The first is the design and development of new aircraft, and the second is the reform of the military procurement system.
    And this means increasing the military budget to $ 1,5 trillion? And how to reform military procurement if each of the big generals lobbies for a certain military-industrial complex company and strives to ensure that a certain type of weapons is purchased from it. Kickbacks are not for free.
    ... we will fail and this is not normal
    Of course it's okay. Therefore, it might be better not to strive to fight, and even more so with Russia and China?

    Who was he going to ... fight with? But one thing he is indisputably right - the Yankees have not won in the last century. Yes, they fight a lot and not on their territory, but, in the end, they flee from the battlefield, abandoning equipment, weapons and even their ... vassals. No, there are, of course, local ones, their language does not turn out to be victories, the seizure of power and territory, but all this is temporary.

    Clinton Hinote and David Noam feel something, but do not fully understand the day of the war. Even their military action in WWII was STUPID FORCED DESTRUCTION OF EVERYTHING LIVING AND DESTRUCTION OF EVERYTHING!
    They did not fight the threads, they knew how to fight in order to defeat the enemy's army, but simply destroyed everything, both civilians and the city.
    The dumbest war was WWI, where all the generals and strategists (EXCEPT GOD TO WAR VOEOVOEZHIVOIN MISHICH) showed that they did not understand anything about the war.
    It’s dangerous that they can easily read nuclear weapons because they don’t know how to win in a different way!
    But let's not help a potential enemy.
    One of the mistakes in the military logic of the US generals and what says that all their military schools are not worth a spoiled WATERMOON:
    It is noted that the US Army needs a "restructuring" of the very strategy of warfare.

    The military strategy has not changed from Sun Tzua until now, something else has changed, Voevoda Misich understood this to the point, and the Prussians in WWII, WWII understood only the frequent changes, and the Anglo-Saxons did not understand anything; the threads do not understand the threads today!

    The military industry is the fastest growing in the world, it is not surprising that the relevance of many military strategies is constantly changing. In the end, even all new developments are tested for military effectiveness.

    They get poor and nobody knows who needs it. Like uncle give me a ruble? Uncle - don't you want it in the face ?! The boy starts to cry. Then two mordovorota come out of the entrance and say to the uncle - why are you kidding the child? And then the uncle gives everything, even the underwear. Covering himself with his palm, the side streets, the uncle gets home. Like pretending to be helpless, but they themselves cannot wait for their uncle to bite.
