On August 3, 2025, local time, the U.S. think tank, the Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies, publicly released their simulation of the U.S. military's logistics support when the U.S. forces are attacked in the Western Pacific during an intervention in the Taiwan Strait conflict. The U.S. think tank believes that the key to the U.S. military is drones, the necessity of coordinated operations, partial penetration strikes, and fighter jets used for destructive air combat. However, according to the simulation results published by the Mitchell Institute, the U.S. military's intervention in the Taiwan Strait scenario even suggests that a mere dozens of U.S. Air Force fighters could gain control of the airspace over the Taiwan Strait.

Is this U.S. think tank out of its mind? Not to mention whether the U.S. Air Force's airfields will be hit by Dongfeng ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and small motorcycles. The U.S. think tank actually believes that 32 F-35A stealth fighters plus 32 F-15EX fighters can break through China's tight air defense network, escorting B-2 and B-21 stealth bombers to attack targets deep within eastern China. Even if these numbers of aircraft arrive, they won't be effective at all. Is this treating China like Iran? I hope the U.S. Air Force really thinks so and does so during the Taiwan Strait war.

U.S. netizens also couldn't stand it, commenting: "Remind the U.S. think tank is operated by stupid people who think 32 F-35A and 32 F-15EX can break through Chinese airspace." "The Washington people have a very high level of blindness about the PLA's capabilities in anti-stealth, electronic warfare, electronic intelligence, sensor fusion, and command and control." "There is a big gap between U.S. intelligence agencies and U.S. think tanks that get huge payments from defense contractors to justify policies promoting conflict."

The U.S. think tank doesn't consider that if there are 50 J-20/J-35 stealth fighters using anti-stealth radars, J-16D, new-type electronic warfare aircraft, and 20 early warning aircraft and drones supporting, how would the U.S. Air Force conduct its strike, and how would the U.S. Air Force formations survive? At that time, there might be more than 50 J-20/J-35. In fact, the most difficult part here is the 32 F-15EX fighters. The U.S. should first increase the production of F-15EX fighters beyond 055万吨 (055-class destroyer) before talking about anything else. If the U.S. military only sends F-35 and F-15EX fighters, they will experience what it means to be at a complete disadvantage in quantity, quality, and system. Without a system, the U.S. Air Force cannot even fight against the J-10 fighter jet, let alone win.

Now, the U.S. military is dreaming of military intervention in the Taiwan Strait. Even if the U.S. Navy gathers five nuclear aircraft carriers and 20 Arleigh Burke 2A destroyers, that would only be five aircraft carrier battle groups, totaling 220 F/A-18F carrier-based aircraft, 20 E-2C early warning aircraft, 20 EA-18G Growler electronic warfare aircraft, with a total of 1,920 missile vertical launch systems. These U.S. carrier-based aircraft and VLS cells are not even as numerous as the strike firepower of the Chinese Rocket Force, the Chinese Air Force, and the Chinese coastal defense forces within a 2,000 km range. Moreover, the Chinese military power has a crushing advantage over the U.S. military in the Western Pacific. The problem is, do they believe that the U.S. Navy can gather five fully equipped Nimitz-class nuclear aircraft carriers, and 20 Arleigh Burke 1A and 2A destroyers, which can be mobilized at that time? Does the U.S. Navy have the current strength and logistical support capability to directly deploy such a large military force during the Taiwan Strait war?

J-10C can shoot down U.S. F-35 fighters with system support

Will the U.S. military face the air force of the Chinese Air Force, including the KJ-3000, KJ-700, KJ-600, KJ-500, J-20S/J-20A, J-35/J-35A, and J-16D, and dare to intervene? If the U.S. military dares to step in, we can reenact the operation of the "small Huaihai" developing into the "large Huaihai" during the Liberation War, launching a large-scale Taiwan Strait campaign to eliminate Western influence in the Western Pacific, clearing the way for our future eastward, westward, and southward expansion.

China has established the strongest air defense system in Asia

When the U.S. think tank was working on these plans, the premise was that the U.S. B-2, F-22, and F-35 could not be detected by our long-range reconnaissance, and then these stealth fighters would be used to strike our air defense equipment and long-range radar and navy first. Then the B-1B strategic bomber would follow up to attack our naval fleet.

If the U.S. military only sends 64 aircraft to intervene in the Taiwan Strait, what awaits them is being slaughtered by J-20 and J-35 fighters

Three years later, China's air power in the Asia-Pacific region will definitely surpass the U.S., with 500 J-20 series, 150 J-35 series, 500 J-16 series, 500 J-10 series, plus 200 early warning aircraft, refueling aircraft, and new-type aircraft, etc. What kind of combat power can the U.S. military send?

China's nuclear forces are the last cornerstone to deter the U.S. military from acting recklessly

Face with U.S. threats, therefore, our H-20, new nuclear-powered submarines, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and the number of our nuclear weapons must be increased quickly. First, we need to increase the number of nuclear weapons to 1,500, then to 2,000 in the second stage, and finally to 3,000 in the third stage. Among these 3,000 nuclear weapons, 2,000 are strategic nuclear weapons, and 1,000 are tactical nuclear weapons. They need to be equipped as soon as possible.
