Chapter 1157: New Threat Theory

Of the 500,000 troops, there are 350,000 ground troops, and among the ground forces, in addition to the 200,000 garrison troops, the remaining 150,000 are the elite Red Guard armored corps.

The armored corps has more than 3,000 main battle tanks and more than 5,000 armored vehicles, as well as tens of thousands of other ground combat vehicles.

Such a huge force structure, plus all of them are advanced third-generation main battle equipment, and even fourth-generation main battle tanks.

The combined strength of the Iraqi and Syrian navies, land, and air forces is not inferior to that of the world's military powers.

At this moment, all the heads of state have also reacted at this moment, a regional military power is rising from the Middle East, and there will be another powerful seat in the world.

As long as Iraq and Syria combine their forces and complement each other, they can leap into the top 10 military powers.

Even Israel has to lose a lot of color.

With such a huge number of troops, even if the United States looked up and down, they were all shocked.

Looking at Iraq alone may not be a big deal, and the same is true for Syria alone, but the results of the combination of the two deserve the attention of all the powerful and great powers in the world.

Both Britain and France can feel the strong military pressure from the Middle East.

Britain, which was originally very proud to have two second-class aircraft carriers ranked second in the world, could only hang its proud heads after seeing the four Baghdad-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.

Now, the only place that can make them feel proud. Perhaps there are only 36 Lightning carrier-based aircraft that can be carried on each of the two aircraft carriers.

And for the British, they regretted it even more, because when designing the new Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carrier. Due to financial problems, the design drawings were changed from the original nuclear-powered all-electric propulsion system to a conventional-powered all-electric propulsion system.

This change directly lowered the combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier by a level, but this is also a result of financial reluctance for Britain.

Sixty percent of the world's aircraft carrier technology was invented by the British. There is no doubt about that.

Even if it's an American aircraft carrier, the technology on it. Sixty percent of them followed the design ideas of the British aircraft carriers of those years.

Britain has always adhered to its own heritage in developing aircraft carriers, and at the same time, Britain is also capable of designing nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and it is not a defective product like the French Charles de Gaulle.

If it weren't for the funding. The Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carrier is indeed following the United States. The second largest nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in the world.

Without money, nothing can be done, and now, although the British regret it very much, for the aircraft carrier, it has been built and cannot be changed.

For the aircraft carrier owned by the Future Technology Group, Britain can only shake its head. I can't tell if I have bitterness in my heart.

As soon as it was designed, it seemed backward, and it originally wanted to restore the glory of the world's second aircraft carrier country. But it was immediately taken away.

The ranking is about to reach fourth in one breath, which makes Britain how can it calmly face the global military pattern.

This is especially true of France, which is the most maverick of NATO, and its original armament system is all different from NATO, and it can even be said that it has no relationship with NATO at all.

Therefore, France has always insisted on the originality of its own weapons and equipment, and there is a little contradiction between France and the United States at this point, and it has left NATO several times and rejoined, which also makes the United States not trust France very much.

Therefore, France has always insisted on the domestic production of weapons and equipment, and the Phantom and Rafale are the best successes of the French military industry.

Originally, France has always been proud of being the second country in the world to have a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, but as a result, the Charles de Gaulle did not bring much glory to France, but there has always been bad news.

Of course, all this bad news can disappear with the passage of time, but now, a country that France looks down on so much, has a much more advanced and powerful nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, even twice the size of the Charles de Gaulle.

This made the French Gallic chicken, who has always been very arrogant, suddenly have a faint sadness, and the world has become too strange.

Now, before the storm is over, the world has become eerily calm.

Even a normal person can feel an unusual aura, and no one knows what will happen next.

But one thing is certain: all countries, for Iraq and Syria, need to reassess, and of course, the defense capabilities of the entire homeland.

That night, a large number of think tanks in the United States all quickly published a large number of analytical reports.

The results of the previous analysis of these think tanks were all aimed at exaggerating the threat theory, and the results were all aimed at specifically referring to what kind of tragic outcome the United States would have when facing China.

The publication of such an analysis is all deliberately done by the US Department of Defense to exaggerate the pressure on the US military force, and then show it to the people and tell all Americans that China is on the rise and the US military will lose the ability to protect the people.

China's thousands of missiles are capable of leveling the entire United States in more than ten minutes.

The results of such analyses can be found everywhere in the United States, and in fact, the so-called think tanks are all tools in the hands of politicians, used to guide public opinion, and used to demand more military spending from Congress.

Now, however, the US military is really feeling tremendous pressure, and according to the US Navy's operational program, in order to ensure that it can comprehensively surpass military superiority in order to ensure that it can surpass the enemy country or contain future competitors.

In this regard, it can also be seen from the strategic eastward move of the United States. 、

The USS Truman aircraft carrier battle group of the Fifth Fleet was mobilized to the Far East, and the USS Ford, which had just been commissioned, was placed in the Seventh Fleet stationed in Yokosuka, Japan.

Such a force, for a Huaxia with only one training aircraft carrier, does have a comprehensive suppressive power advantage.

For the allies of the United States in the Far East and Southeast Asia, the United States' move is to give them courage and reassure their little brother that the old brother is very powerful, go and make trouble with China! My brother will always support you in the back.

But now, the United States really feels that it is tricky, and at once it has two heavy nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and the balance of power is reversed all at once. (To be continued.) )
