  1. The First Island Chain consists of over 10,000 islands. China's coast is literally surrounded. All of their warships are within range including their shipyards

  2. Industrial prowess will be rendered useless if China's production lines and shipyards are targeted. There are thousands of islands in the first chain, Japan is deploying 1,000 km range anti ship missiles. All of China's warships and shipyards are within range. China is stuck in a box

  3. But it seems like mankind is destined for this to happen. There is no way out of it

  4.  @lkknhhhb  Japan is deploying Type 12 with 1,000 km range anti ship missiles. The missile will soon be upgraded to 1,500 km

  5.  @lkknhhhb  I am very well aware that China might want to take revenge because of WW2. However, 1,000 km range anti ship missiles hidden and defended on hundreds of islands is a problem.

  6.  @lkknhhhb  In a nuclear war, both the US and China will lose. I am talking about conventional war. What underground barriers are you talking about?

  7.  @lkknhhhb  But seems like China is in prison. China is stuck within the first island chain not the other way around, 🤣

  8.  @lkknhhhb  When was the last time China went to war?

  9.  @lkknhhhb  The US could block China. The US has a blue water navy and have warships on every corner of the globe, the US navy could starve China but blockading the choke points around the world. This is a fact, however it might lead to a nuclear war because of this.

  10.  @NoobNo-eb8ut  China will have the advantage if it does a pre-emptive strike on the forward islands to take out air defense systems and anti ship missiles. But this complicates the matter because China will have to choose if it wants to attack multiple different nations which could and will form a coalition against China. China will have to attack Japan, the Philippines if it decides to do a pre-emptive strike. It will be a dilemma for China whether it wants to involve multiple nations.

  11.  @lkknhhhb  All of China's major shipyards are within the reach of the US and Japan. They are located on the east coast of China. They are literally sitting ducks. China's industrial might will be useless if these were targeted. 1. Bohai shipyard: capacity 4-5 Submarines at a time 2. Jiangnan shipyard: Type 055, Type 052, aircraft carrier 3. Hudong Zhonghua shipyard: Type 075 Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD) 4. Wuchang shipyard: construction of submerged and surface vessels 5. Huangpu Wenchongshipyard: first AI-powered drone mothership–Zhu Hai Yun 6. Dalian shipyard: Type 055, Type 052. Repairs more than 200 vessels annually. 7. Hudong-Zhonghua shipyard: Type 071

  12.  @altoria-yhy  I am aware that when experts talk about the US and China, they are debating whether China could defeat US locally(East China Sea) since China have the home ground advantage. This means they are comparing China's entire military with only a portion of the US navy in the region near mainland China. And it is very obvious that China's green water navy lacks the logistics, technology, air power, firepower and experience to fight the US in the open ocean.

  13.  @lkknhhhb  China can't fight the US conventionally. What I mean by this is if the US decides to hit mainland China, China will have little options to retaliate back at the US' mainland. Yes the US forwarded bases in Guam, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and Taiwan will be hit, but not US' mainland. China has 1,200 conventionally armed short-range ballistic missiles, 200 to 300 conventional medium-range ballistic missiles and an unknown number of conventional intermediate-range ballistic missiles, as well as 200-300 ground-launched cruise missiles. The US have an inventory of 4,000 JSSM-ER with the range of 900 km, 4,000 Tomahawk cruise missiles 2,400 km range. All of China's "Hu line" is within range.

  14.  @活摘台蛙的蛙腦  The Korean war is nothing to boast about. At the end of the war, South Korea gained more land than what North Korea gained. In other words South Korea and the US won the war. China's tactic was human waves after human waves jumping into the line of fire. Not impressive. What is more is that the US came from 10,000 km while China was at the border of Korea.

  15.  @lkknhhhb  Does China have air to air combat experience? No. Does China have air to ground combat experience? No. Does China have target acquisition combat experience? No. Does China have real time detection and tracking projectile experience? No. Does China have air defense interception combat experience? No. Does China have amphibious warfare experience? No. Does China have the logistics to invade Taiwan? No. The US have all of the above experience, the US have carrier operational experience for 100 years. China's domestic carrier hasn't even operated 5th generation fighters jets, non nuclear power, and only operates 30+ fighters. The US carriers operates 5th generation fighters, nuclear powered, carries 90 fighter jets. The US destroyers are capable of intercepting ICBMs while China's destroyers are only capable on paper to intercept aircrafts which is not even battle tested as of today.

  16.  @活摘台蛙的蛙腦  At the end of the day, North Korea and China's forces were pushed out of South Korea. This was the objective.

  17.  @活摘台蛙的蛙腦  Industrial might becomes useless when the production lines are targeted.

  18.  @活摘台蛙的蛙腦  I am not talking about nuclear bombs. I am talking about conventional war. Everybody will lose in a nuclear war
