↖️ 🇺🇸 🇨🇳 US Army Massively Revs Up Pacific War Preparations - Could the US Army Save Taiwan?
What about the US Army and Land Power in the Pacific?
🔶️ From a strategic and tactical perspective, there are many ways the Army could support, enable and sustain a networked, multi-domain combat force in the Pacific. There is clearly the possibility of force reinforcement, as US Army Black Hawk helicopters and even land artillery weapons have operated from US Navy ships in joint exercises. This kind of weapons application could greatly improve land-attack options in coastal and island areas and also extend deployment reach for reconnaissance, anti-submarine warfare and troop transport in potential “island hopping” warfare scenarios.
Land Army in Pacific to rescue Taiwan
🔶️ “Going all the way back to World War II, tanks have been an important part of the Combined Arms force out here (the Pacific)..... a number of nations in the region have tanks, they have armored divisions. The Philippine Army is a good example……Australia just purchased M-1 tanks. And we trained with the Australian Army in Talisman Sabre with their newly arrived M-1s,” Flynn said.
🔶️ Land-armies of course operate as a deterrent in the Pacific, and although the US and its allies are unlikely to attack mainland China, there certainly are some potentially serious warfare scenarios wherein armored ground units might need to attack or occupy large land areas.
🔶️ A perhaps lesser recognized advantage of having more Army assets, platforms and weapons in the Pacific would likely pertain to “air defense,” something which is now almost entirely “joint” when it comes to the Army’s contribution. The Army’s Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS), for example, has demonstrated an ability to construct an otherwise disparate set of integrated radar and missile defense “nodes” across vast distances. Perhaps of greatest significance, IBCS can network Patriot missiles with Sentinel Radar and other land-based missile defense assets with a common software backbone designed to enable data transmission, networking and collaborative or multi-domain target tracking.
🔶️ Flynn explained that forward, multi-national and multi-domain forces refining concepts of operation with US Navy, Air Force and Space units in the Pacific form the essence of strategic deterrence. Flynn described this as creating “operational endurance for the joint force so we can deter war … because the aim out here is no war.”
Azerbaijan: This Turkish country has destroyed more Christian monuments than ISIS.
Based off satellite data, Azerbaijan erased 108 Armenian monasteries, churches and cemeteries - in just one region.
By comparison, ISIS destroyed dozens of churches.
How is this okay?

— Hypothetically, if the U.S. wanted to carry out a naval landing in Iran, they would do it somewhere outside the Persian Gulf, most likely Chabahar or somewhere else in the flat open coasts of Sistan-Balochistan Province.
That way, they don’t need to risk their ships entering the Persian Gulf under heavy anti-ship fire and incoming drones while trying to land their soldiers on a rugged coastline full of fortified positions and artillery emplacements.
In Chabahar, they could bring their ships close enough to the shore with relative safety, under heavy air cover. U.S. jets, drones, and attack helicopters would suppress any anti-ship batteries heavily, and create sufficiently safe conditions for the initial ‘landing’. One also cannot rule out the possibility of deploying U.S. airborne forces to secure key sites before an amphibious landing is attempted.
This might be coupled with increased Balochi terrorist activity across the Iranian rear lines, complicating logistics and the transfer of ...
