Comment on Nato says Western civilians should prepare for 'all-out war' with Russia
jimbolauski@lemm.ee 11 months agoThe closest the US will get to fighting China is a Taiwan proxy war. We’ll still get to see how well their stealth aircraft work, probably not that well considering they just figured out how to bury the exhaust nozzle inside the airframe. We’ll get to see how well their missiles work, an area they are closer to the US, as long as they don’t use water as fuel. We’ll get to see how well their ships anti missile/drone tech is really only the US and Israel have had to defend against those kinds of attacks.

China hasn’t had a conflict in years. I suspect their units will not do well in a war. None of their equipment is battle-tested and most of them appear to be poorly constructed. Their J-20 is underpowered. Where their real advantage is manufacturing which was our advantage in ww2. China can out produce the US if it came to a war and that is concerning.

I agree. The best equipment and training can be offset by basic equipment and sheer numbers. The US found that out in Korea, and the Germans found it out in the Eastern front
