Large numbers of fighter jets and electronic warfare aircraft are on standby, with signs indicating that action will be taken 10 days later. The White House is working late into the night!
Various signs indicate that the U.S. military operation against Venezuela is entering a countdown — from air force deployment, the establishment of logistical support systems, to the abnormal operation of the command center, all actions point to a possible time window: around December 25.
The U.S. military has not only moved F-35A stealth fighters to the Caribbean region, but also deployed the EA-18G "Growler" electronic warfare aircraft of the VAQ-132 squadron. This combination is a typical "knock-on-the-door" configuration: the F-35 is responsible for penetrating the enemy's air defense system for precise strikes, while the EA-18G suppresses or disables the enemy's radar and communication networks.
This combination has been used multiple times in the Middle East, but its appearance at the doorstep of South America carries a completely different significance.
According to internal U.S. military dispatch information, some combat rescue assets originally under the Central Command and the Indo-Pacific Command, such as the HH-60W "Happy Green Giant II" helicopters and the HC-130J special mission aircraft, have also been urgently transferred to the Southern Command area.
This means that the U.S. military is not preparing for an exercise, but rather deploying in advance for high-risk operations such as pilot rescue and casualty evacuation during actual combat.
Meanwhile, the White House's military operations room has been brightly lit all night for several consecutive days. Usually, only when a major military operation decision is about to be made, the national security team will enter a 24-hour shift state. Combined with the fact that the Pentagon has concentrated high-value combat assets to the Southern Command, this "pre-war coordination" rhythm almost confirms that the U.S. military is making final preparations for a possible military intervention that could break out within the next 10 days.
