America Prepares for China War by 2027; China is Prepared Now! By Charles Taylor (Florida)
As incredible as it sounds, it seems that the US navy has taken time away from the transgender agenda and thought a little bit about communist Chinese aggression against Taiwan, which is occurring daily. The Navy has released a strategic document aiming to get the US ready for war with China by 2027. They think that communist China will be ever-helpful and invade in that year giving the US some prep time. That is going to be a stretch as the Chinese now have a bigger navy than the US. The US Congressional Research Service (CRS) report titled, China Naval Modernization: Implications for US Navy Capabilities—Background and Issues for Congress states:
"China's navy is, by far, the largest of any country in East Asia, and sometime between 2015 and 2020 it surpassed the US Navy in numbers of battle force ships (meaning the types of ships that count towards the quoted size of the US Navy). The overall battle force [of China's navy] is expected to grow to 400 ships by 2025 and 440 ships by 2030. The US Navy, by comparison, included 294 battle force ships at the end of FY2021, and the Navy's FY2024 budget submission projects that the Navy will include 290 battle force ships by the end of FY2030. US military officials and other observers are expressing concern or alarm regarding the pace of China's naval shipbuilding effort and resulting trend lines regarding the relative sizes and capabilities of China's navy and the US Navy."
As the US has allowed its military to rot, like everything else, it seems likely that the US will be defeated by China in the Taiwan conflict. There is thus a need to get the chip factories out, or at worse, bomb them when the time comes so that they do not fall into communist hands. Yes, what a way to go.

The U.S. Navy on Sept. 19 released a new strategic document centered on countering communist China's aggression in the Indo-Pacific.
It directs the Navy to develop "readiness for the possibility of war with the People's Republic of China by 2027," pointing to China's preparations for a possible invasion of Taiwan in the same year.
"The Navy emphatically acknowledges the need for a larger, more lethal force," the document, titled "Navigation Plan for America's Warfighting Navy," states.
"By 2027, the Navy will be more ready for sustained combat as part of a Joint and Combined force, prioritizing the People's Republic of China as the pacing challenge and focusing on enabling the joint warfighting ecosystem."
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which rules China as a single-party state, claims that Taiwan is a part of its territory that must be united with the mainland through any means necessary.
However, Taiwan is self-governed by a democratically elected government and has never been controlled by the CCP.
CCP leader Xi Jinping has nevertheless ordered the communist regime's military wing to prepare for war and to develop the capabilities required to invade Taiwan.
The regime has since engaged in a more than decade-long shipbuilding spree, massively expanding its fleet, drone capabilities, and nuclear arsenal.
Most importantly, for a Taiwan invasion scenario, it has also launched its own advanced aircraft carriers and destroyers.
That poses a problem for the United States, as the U.S. Navy floats far fewer ships than the Chinese, and must spread them more widely to maintain its global military presence.
China, meanwhile, can position the vast majority of its naval and coast guard units close to home, where they can receive cover from land-based units and where it is easier to maintain their supply lines.
A congressional report published in July found that "the U.S. military lacks both the capabilities and the capacity required to be confident it can deter and prevail in combat" against China.
The July report also said that China is likely to increase its hostile behavior in the coming years to "normalize unlawful behavior" around Taiwan as it seeks to take advantage of the United States' lack of ability to deter conflict.
Key to the new Navy document's goals, therefore, is the fulfillment of Project 33, a naval initiative aiming to ready the force by eliminating delays in maintenance, scaling the use of autonomous and robotic systems, and increasing navy recruitment, among other things.
"We cannot manifest a bigger traditional Navy in a few short years, nor will we rely on mass without the right capabilities to win the sea control contest," the document reads.
"Nearer-term operational challenges demand that we integrate proven robotic and autonomous capabilities as soon as possible.
"We must do so with a focus on how we will use these systems in war. By 2027, we will integrate proven robotic and autonomous systems for routine use by the commanders who will employ them."
Scaling the deployment of autonomous systems is just part of the puzzle, with the document underscoring that the United States' grim position in the Indo-Pacific "goes well beyond just the size of the PLA [People's Liberation Army] Navy fleet."
The document notes that China's joint forces are developing into an integrated fighting force "specifically designed to defeat ours" and are backed by China's massive industrial base.
The document also calls on the Navy to work with Congress to secure critical supply chains and lays out a vision in which all fleet headquarters in the service will field their own maritime operations centers.
The goal of the latter directive is to ensure that the U.S. Navy can continue to maintain superiority in command and control, military intelligence, and maneuvers, even against a numerically superior foe in a vast and distributed region.
"We must meet all the objectives in this Navigation Plan to field the people and capabilities needed to fight and win today, in 2027, and beyond," the document states."
