Chapter 704: The Ambitious U.S. Navy

Dogs will jump over the wall when they are in a hurry, let alone the dignified American hegemon.

Many international media and commentators, as well as many think tanks, have attributed the abrupt shift in the United States to the stimulus of future technology groups.

None of the top levels of the U.S. government objected to this.

And a series of actions of the US Air Force are not only on the project of fifth-generation aircraft.

Boeing's Globemaster bomber production line, which had been shut down, started production again, because the U.S. Air Force placed an order for the production of another 80 Globemaster transport aircraft.

At the same time, the production line will be restarted with the American B-1 Lancer Bomber, which will produce an upgraded version of the Lancer Bomber.

All kinds of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and aircraft with different roles, a large number of Air Force orders, have snowfallen into the hands of all US arms companies.

In just a few days, some media have made detailed statistics, and the United States has placed orders worth more than $500 billion in a few days just to expand its air force strength.

The U.S. Air Force, once all this order can be completed without discount, the combat effectiveness of the U.S. Air Force will be increased by at least four to five times.

To this end, Jane's Defense Weekly also conducted a special analysis:

Although countries in the Middle East have begun to have fifth-generation aircraft, in terms of overall military system confrontation, even if the countries in the Middle East have fifth-generation aircraft, they will not make the United States so nervous.

Future Technology Group is completely different, although Future Technology Group is not a country, but in terms of military system, it is more sound than most countries in the world.

With a complete range of arms and a large number of advanced weapons and equipment, and the military strength of the future science and technology group, there are almost no shortcomings.

In the face of such an adversary, it is difficult for the United States to have too much advantage by relying on its current military strength.

The conflict of interests between the two sides in the Middle East has also made the United States thoroughly feel the huge threat from the Future Technology Group, and the interests of the United States in the Middle East are facing the greatest challenge in history, which is difficult to deal with in terms of the current global military deployment of the United States.

This move by the United States is not only to improve its own military strength, but also a political warning and deterrent to future technology groups

As for whether this deterrence will be effective, it is still unknown, and the advanced industrial level of the future science and technology group, the United States is actually not easy to ......."

Finally, Jane's Defense Review also analyzed the domestic economy of the United States, specifically pointing out that with the reckless development model of the US Air Force, there may not be results in the end, and the seemingly huge number of orders is very likely to be cut a lot in the end.

And the analysis of Jane's Defense Review is also widely recognized.

Everyone believes that the current finances of the US government simply cannot afford such huge military spending.

However, the day after this comment came out, the U.S. Navy broke another major story.

The U.S. Navy is in discussions with the largest U.S. naval shipbuilding company on how to build four aircraft carriers at the same time in one go.

When the news came to light, the eyes of the world focused on the U.S. Navy.

The news that has been exposed has also been confirmed by many aspects, and the US Navy has already held discussions with two or three naval shipyards, and although the content is not all the same, they all reveal one constant news at the same time, that is, when the US Air Force has made a big move, the US Navy is not lagging behind at all.

At present, after the USS Ford aircraft carrier that has been put into service in the US Navy, the second Ford-class aircraft carrier is about to be launched, and the third Ford-class aircraft carrier is also under construction in the shipyard.

Although launching multiple aircraft carriers at the same time is very conducive to the construction schedule and reducing construction costs, does the US Navy have so much funds for launching four Ford-class aircraft carriers in one go?

Moreover, in many military shipyards in the United States, there have also been many new orders for Arleigh Burke III destroyers, and sharp-eyed media have found that the keels of destroyers are being placed in many empty docks, increasing the number of destroyers built by more than a dozen destroyers at one time.

Obviously, the US Navy is not playing haha, but is really going to carry out a large-scale explosion of ships.

And when the US Navy was preparing to build ships on a large scale, the US Army was not willing to be lonely, and many orders for army equipment were also placed in the hands of various arms companies.

For a time, all the arms companies in the United States were constantly recruiting employees and increasing factories and production lines to meet the needs of the US military.

Some people say that this is the second rejuvenation of all American arms companies, and such a crazy construction plan has not even appeared in the Cold War, and has even caught up with the large-scale production period of the United States during World War II.

This makes people wonder, what is the United States going to do?

However, there is no doubt that in the face of the crazy actions of the United States, it is not that the future technology group is not calm, but that other countries are not calm.

At the same time, Russia has also agreed to negotiate with the Future Technology Group on the issue of cooperation with domestic aircraft carriers, and announced that it will start construction of Russia's first domestically produced nuclear-powered aircraft carrier Storm in Russia's Northern Shipyard.

It seems that in order to catch up with the global aircraft carrier boom, India, which has been criticized and ridiculed as an aircraft carrier country, has also achieved very good results this time, the second domestic aircraft carrier, with the help of the future technology group, the Indians finally launched the second Indian domestic aircraft carrier in a real sense, and successfully completed the outfitting, and is about to conduct the first sea trial.

As soon as this news came out, many people were frightened, and they did not expect that even India would soon have two nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, each with a displacement of more than 100,000 tons.

On the same day, two British Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers returned to the shipyard for overhaul because of water ingress inside the hull.

This made the British Empire feel humiliated, and the British government hated the media that exposed the news.

At the same time, France, as the second nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in the world, seems to be unable to rhythm the situation that the world has nuclear-powered aircraft carriers for a while, but the arrogant French did not continue to choose arrogance this time, but quickly ordered a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier from the Future Technology Group.

Because the French who have had one experience know very well that by the time France develops the reactor for a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the whole world will be nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and it is really troublesome to build a ship, and it is cheaper to buy than to build it yourself, so they naturally made the right choice.
