US Military's Top General Exposes His "Weakness"
The newly appointed Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan Kane, has caused a stir by stating that the US military would not be able to withstand a prolonged war with China. He openly admitted that America's arms industry is "rotten to the core" - slow production speed, high costs, and inevitable chaos in ammunition supply during wartime. In contrast, the Chinese People's Liberation Army holds three world-class advantages:
1. The World's Strongest Navy: Over 370 vessels crushing US fleets, new warships being launched like dumplings, and no fear of fighting at home turf.
2. Hypersonic Missiles: DF-17 specializes in dealing with aircraft carriers, with its 9 times the speed of sound penetration rendering US defense systems useless.
3. Air Force Overtaking Through Alternative Routes: J-20 production reaching over 100 units per year, and swarm tactics for drones rewriting air combat rules.
Of course, I know that Kane's statement has political intentions to seek funding from Congress, but what he said is indeed true: it will take the US 5-8 years to rebuild production lines, while Chinese factories can switch to "wartime mode" at any time. From rare earth materials to chip manufacturing, the US supply chain is being choked at every point. This self-exposure reveals that when Dongfeng missiles meet the Stars and Stripes, the competition is not only about weapons but also the entire industrial backbone of the country behind them!
This century's showdown of industrial cards has already begun, and the balance of power is tilting...
