"How is the US military going to fight this war?" According to Japanese sources, the U.S. Navy's New Orleans amphibious transport dock ship had already caught fire on August 20, 2025, local time in Japan. The U.S. Navy's San Antonio-class New Orleans amphibious transport dock ship reported a fire on board while it was off the coast of the Ryukyu Islands. The U.S. Navy's New Orleans amphibious transport dock ship has a full load displacement of 24,900 tons and is the mainstay of the U.S. amphibious landing operations, mainly using stealth hulls and stealth masts. Earlier in 2009, it collided with the U.S. Navy's Hartford nuclear submarine, causing damage to the command tower of the U.S. Navy's Hartford nuclear submarine. The U.S. Navy's New Orleans amphibious transport dock ship is equivalent to China's 071-type amphibious transport dock ship. The current situation is that as of the time of writing, the U.S. Navy and the Japan Coast Guard have mobilized a large number of fire-fighting forces, but they still haven't managed to put out the fire. For the U.S. Navy, the good news is: the U.S. Navy's New Orleans amphibious transport dock ship is not far from the shore, the bad news is: after burning for several hours, it has burned completely through, with seawater everywhere in the compartments. The U.S. Navy may lose its main amphibious transport dock ship in the future.
The U.S. Navy's New Orleans amphibious transport dock ship has been destroyed by fire or the fire has made it irreparable, which is a nightmare for the U.S. Navy. It is well known that the reason why the United States can act recklessly around the world is closely related to the U.S. military power, among which the U.S. Navy is the main part, known as "the top one," not only has 11 aircraft carriers, but also a large number of amphibious assault ships and amphibious transport dock ships. If the U.S. military wants to start a war, it must rely on the U.S. Navy's aircraft carriers, amphibious assault ships, and amphibious transport dock ships. It can be said that each aircraft carrier, amphibious assault ship, and amphibious transport dock ship, these huge ships are treasures for the U.S. military.
The main threat that the U.S. poses to China is the U.S. Navy. Obviously, before the Sino-U.S. conflict even starts, a major large万吨 amphibious transport dock ship of the U.S. Navy could self-combust, how is the U.S. military going to fight this war? The U.S. military is clearly aware that today's Chinese strength, not to mention an amphibious transport dock ship, an amphibious assault ship, or an aircraft carrier, if any of these appear near Chinese waters, they would face the risk of being sunk at any time.
