U.S. strategists have known for years that a conflict with China would be disastrous for America. In every single Pentagon war game scenario, the United States is decisively defeated. In these simulations, America’s missile stockpiles are exhausted in days, thousands of U.S. servicemen are lost, and entire fleets of aircraft carriers and ships are wiped out. All without achieving any meaningful U.S. objectives.

The war in Ukraine has already demonstrated the realities of the modern battlefield, which will be fought primarily through drones, electronic warfare, and advanced missile systems. These technologies are shifting the balance of power, with quantity overtaking quality. The advantage is now going to countries that can mass-produce low-cost drones and missiles, rather than those who focus on building the most expensive, state-of-the-art technologies. The U.S. is lacking in two key aspects of modern warfare: the right type of weapons and the ability to produce them in large quantities.

The U.S. may have the best aircraft carriers, tanks, and helicopters in the world, but they are essentially useless in a conflict with China. Hypersonic missiles, launched in mass, would easily sink an aircraft carrier before it even gets close to China’s shores. The most advanced tanks are powerless to being overwhelmed by a swarm of explosive suicide drones. This shift in technology was clearly demonstrated during the parade, where 80% of the displayed equipment was shown for the first time.

Beyond advanced technology, China also has the ability to mass-produce these weapons in far greater numbers than the U.S. With the world’s largest manufacturing capacity, China accounts for 35% of global gross production, more than the next nine largest manufacturers combined. In the event of war, this industrial capacity can be redirected to the war effort, much like the United States did during World War II, when it was the undisputed manufacturing superpower of the world. But that manufacturing capacity has long been shipped overseas, and today, the U.S. lacks the capability to sustain a prolonged conflict with China.

The U.S. has abandoned any pretense of adhering to a “rules-based order” or upholding human rights. Instead, it has fully embraced a 19th-century mindset of imperialism, plundering other nations for resources and influence. Early on in the administration, there were threats to annex Greenland for its rare earth materials and take control over the Panama Canal. Most recently, the U.S. has focused its attention on Venezuela, openly pursuing regime change and forced access to the country’s vast oil reserves.
