Renheguo and the United States both put defense first. They also have to choose their own interests.

According to the international situation of the four times, even if the war broke out in previous years, that is, the second phase of the London Treaty was successfully completed, the nuclear warheads of the Republic and the United States would cut ships. The total amount was reduced to the Madmouth, and the strategic carriers would be reduced to the persuasion, so that the strategic strike capabilities of both countries were within the upper limit of the interception capabilities of the other party's strategic defense system. However, from a strategic perspective, ensuring local security first and then considering attacking opponents is definitely the only choice between the Republic and the US authorities. In other words, if even local security is not guaranteed, even if it can be defeated or even destroyed, it will not be able to win. In fact, this is also the main reason why the world war is unlikely to break up before the two Western years. After all, under the premise of mutual guarantee of destruction, no one can become the ultimate winner.

The problem is that this is not a good thing for military strategists on both sides, especially senior generals.

When determining the direction of strategic development, Pei Chengyi repeatedly emphasized that even if we must pay more attention to defense, we should actively defend, that is, tactical counterattacks should be the main focus rather than passive defense.

The situation in the United States is also very similar. In the 2009 year, Stark, who left the Pentagon, mentioned in a special interview with the TV station. In the future war, defense will be the main factor in victory, but the United States must not give up its initiative. Only through active defense can it defeat its opponents. With Stark and Duchwi, this can also be seen as Duchwi's military theory. After all, when Duchwi needs to take off his military uniform, it is unlikely to accept public interviews from the public media as a military strategist.

In any case, this transformation is a very painful thing for both parties.

Of course, this is also why both sides need to spend several years preparing.

In a sense, the two sides make strategic adjustments at this time, hoping to drag down their opponents through a comprehensive arms race before the war breaks out, and create a greater chance of winning.

In fact, this is also a very normal thing.

You know, before the first two world wars, the arms race was all "foreplay".

Take World War I for example. Before the outbreak of the war, Germany and Britain had a recent arms race, and both sides invested almost all their national strength in naval construction. In a sense, it was precisely because Germany invested too much in the naval force that the German army was affected and failed to defeat France on the ground.

Before the past year, Germany had a very obvious advantage in the ground battlefield, and even defeated Tsarist Russia on the Eastern Front battlefield, and was only one step away from victory on the Western Front battlefield. If Germany could spend more effort to build the world's most powerful army before the war, the result of World War I would probably be rewritten, and it might even turn it into the Second Franco-Prussian War, thus making Germany the most powerful country on the European continent and even the world.

Ironically, the unvalued German army set off left and right on the ground battlefield. It achieved a victory that was enough for all Germans to be proud of. The navy, which was valued by the German Emperor, failed to achieve any results and eventually became the trophy of the Allies. It can be seen that the arms race before World War I actually became the last straw that crushed Germany. From another perspective, the propaganda of the Allies before the war and the guiding role played by the arms race were also factors that made Germany go astray. The new address of this site has been changed to: Chat the 0, Wei Gong Shan, please read it!

German Emperor William II was the nephew of the British king at that time. The powerful British Royal Navy left a profound influence on the German Emperor, which made the German Emperor pay more attention to the navy in the construction of sea and land, and despise the army that was related to Germany's life and death. According to the situation at that time, Germany was a typical "land power country". Even if it had the strength to compete for world hegemony before the outbreak of World War I, Germany's industrial strength was second only to the United States and its comprehensive national strength was second only to the United States. France in the west and Tsarist Russia in the east should be regarded as the main opponents. Only after defeating these two powerful enemies can they deal with Britain, rather than fighting with three powerful enemies at the same time.

From a historical perspective, Germany was able to defeat France in the Franco-Prussian War because under the correct leadership of Prime Minister Bismarck, he maintained good relations with Britain and used Britain's support to stabilize Tsarist Russia in the east and create an opportunity to deal with France alone.

Of course, these are already national strategic issues and have little to do with the arms race.

In addition to the naval arms race before World War I, the arms race before World War II was also very prominent. Although after World War I, the United States, Britain, Japan, France and Italy and other powerful forces strictly restricted the naval arms race through the Treaty of Washington and the Treaty of London, and Kishi used this to avoid the next World War, but after these treaties expired, the arms race still became the foreplay of the world war. For example, since the year of the thug, the naval arms race between the United States and Japan was fully launched, and it determined the final result of the Pacific War.

Compared with World War I, the biggest feature of the arms race before World War II was that it was equal importance to both navy and land, and the addition of air force.

In a sense, the arms race before World War II was dominated by the air force.

Shortly after the Wright brothers' "Flyer" flew into the blue sky, the Air Force was one, and the war also moved from the plane toward it, and the power became the main and decisive force.

Before the outbreak of World War II, the air force competition marked by the "speed competition" was part of the arms race and the most important part. Several of the best fighters in the early days of World War II, such as the German rioters and the British "Spray Fire" fighters were actually the products of the "speed competition". It can be said that the competition to develop air power was a highlight of the arms race before World War II.

From a tactical perspective, although World War II was a typical mechanized war, and the most representative ground tactics were the blitzkrieg of the German Army and the Soviet Army's large-scale offensive theory, the core force of these two army tactics was not the mechanized troops that were usually called tanks and tanks, but the aviation troops that were mainly fighter jets, attack aircraft, bombers, and especially the tactical aviation troops that were mainly fighter jets and attack aircraft. It can be said that if there were no aviation troops to open the way in front, the German Army's armored troops could not sweep across Western Europe, nor could they come to Moscow, and the Soviet Red Army could not have fought until Pellin and eventually defeated Germany.

From a strategic perspective, the strategic bombing initiated by the United States pushed the war to a new peak. It can be said that it was precisely because of the brilliant achievements of strategic bombing against Germany and Japan in World War II that the US Air Force was born, making the US authorities regard the Air Force as the number one military force. At that time, the US Air Force was still the army aviation company that could dominate the sky during World War II, and it was closely related to the pre-war arms race. For example, the use of airtight cockpits on American fierce bombers came from technological exploration before World War II, and the average supercharged engine was closely related to the "speed race" before the war.

Compared with the previous two world wars, the arms race that began over the years is even more cruel.

Judging from the situation at that time, if the Republic and the United States followed the new strategic idea, that is, to abandon the offensive-oriented military construction method and focus on defense, then the two countries must change their troops before the war breaks out, and at least more than half of the main combat equipment needs to be replaced.

Take the Army as an example, the Republic has to adjust the tactical indicators of the ground main combat platform and the air combat platform. The new address of this site has been changed to: 0南后六后六后六后六后六后六后六后六后六后六后六后六后六后

Relatively speaking, the Army’s problems are not serious. In any case, the ground main combat platform and the air combat platform adopt an open architecture and are designed according to modular standards. After adjusting tactical indicators, only various functional modules need to be redeveloped.

Take the main battle tank for example. After confirming that the defense capability should be increased by % on the original basis and with the ability to resist the armor-piercing projectiles fired by the first generation of spiral electromagnetic guns, the combat quality under the maximum protection standard will be increased from Wu Ton to Feng Ton. The main problem is that the production cost increases by about scammers, mainly to increase the amount of high-strength alloy armor. Second, the protection module is redesigned. After all, after the quality changes, the size data will also change, so naturally the appearance must be redesigned. Third, the requirements for the power system are higher. In the case of increasing the center of gravity, that is, increasing the weight. In order to maintain tactical maneuverability, the power of the power system needs to be increased at least. These three problems have little impact on development work. In the words of engineers from China National Heavy Group, as long as there is enough money, the problem can be solved.

The Navy is really affected.

In any case, the army's main combat equipment wins by quantity. Whether it is main combat tanks or low-altitude attack aircraft, when purchasing a large number of inspections, they are all single in a hundred, or even in a thousand. The navy's main combat equipment is different. Even the anti-submarine ships with the largest number of equipment, the units purchased in batches are only a few, and the number of large warships like aircraft carriers is only a few.

More importantly, the design cycle of the navy's main combat equipment is longer and the change is more difficult.

Although naval ships have long adopted open architecture and modular design, in any case, after the navy sets tactical indicators, they will set a price. The designer will first determine the displacement of the warship and then conduct detailed designs. Take aircraft carriers for example. After determining the number of standard carriers as force frames, continuous combat with the old days, and deployment period of 6 months, the engineer can obtain a relatively reasonable displacement range, that is, whether it is about 10,000 tons or about 10,000 tons. After determining the displacement range, each functional module will be prepared according to actual requirements. In this way, if the navy changes the tactical indicators halfway, for example, requires the number of standard carriers to be thugs for 2 months, the engineer will increase the displacement from 10,000 tons to 10,000 tons, and then adjust the module, which is equivalent to starting from scratch.

In fact, this is the main reason why the "Chongqing"-class aircraft carrier has been tossing for many years.

Of course, the problem is not that simple.

After determining the strategy of defense-oriented, the importance of aircraft carriers is not so prominent. You should know that aircraft carriers are definitely offensive-oriented sea warships, and only offense can reflect the value of aircraft carriers.

The problem is here.

The Middle East War and the previous Indian War have proved that in future naval battles, the attack capability of aircraft carriers is difficult to pose a threat to opponents of the same level in the sea control mission. Taking the "Shanghai" class aircraft carrier of the Republic as an example, when carrying carrier-based aircraft, using the Maximum "Chunli calculation, the Kinbuk fighter aircraft is dispatched: among which the outfits perform escort and starvation air missions, and the other good ones perform attack missions, and each carry 4 anti-ship missiles, and can only be sent! Ost missiles. In a thug cruiser, two multi-purpose destroyers and a battle group that breaks anti-submarine destroyers, the air defense network of more than 0 anti-ship missiles can be intercepted in one defense. That is to say, under the same scale, it is difficult to defeat the opponent.

This is true. In the previous few wars, even in the early days of the Indian War, the Republic's Navy did not rely entirely on carrier-based fighters to eliminate an Indian fleet of similar size.

Affected by this, the aircraft carrier has completely become an active maritime airport. The new address of this site has been changed to: Please read after 0 fetal muscles!

The problem is that aircraft carriers are far inferior to maritime bases in supporting combat aircraft.

In other words, if the issues such as speed are not considered, the maritime base is a more ideal aviation support platform. It can even be said that as long as the magnetic induction propulsion system is mature, the support capabilities of the "air base" developed by the Air Force are above the aircraft carrier. In this way, the value of the aircraft carrier's existence will be greatly affected.

In fact, during the Secret Troopers, some people suspected the value of the aircraft carrier.

Although some people believe that the war before the Year of the Orochi will not reflect the value of aircraft carriers, after all, in wars with limited purpose and scale, the battle for sea control is not decisive. Or the two sides of the war are not active in seizing sea control, so it is difficult for aircraft carriers to perform normally in sea control operations. In a comprehensive war, the sea control capability of aircraft carriers, especially strategic maneuvering and deployment capabilities, will be fully reflected. However, it must be admitted that with the rapid progress of technology, this advantage of aircraft carriers is no longer so obvious.

Of course, when the situation is unclear, neither the Republic nor the United States will easily change naval construction.

.

The reason is very simple. The construction cycle of the navy is the longest, and the impact after the change is the greatest, so there is no major adjustment before the situation is clear. In fact, powerful navies in history have similar development strategies. Take the UK as an example. When the Royal Navy was rampant around the world, it can be said that it was the least aggressive navy in the world. Many new technologies and new weapons, such as steam engines and torpedoes, appeared first among the navies of other countries, and then were adopted by the British navy. With the strong national strength of the UK, it quickly surpassed its opponents. It was not until after World War II, when Britain could not continue to maintain the world's largest navy, that the Royal Navy made a difference in technological innovation, such as catapults that had the greatest impact on the modern navy, oblique flight decks and ski jump takeoff methods were both masterpieces of the British.

That's why the U.S. Navy is not in a hurry to create

In fact, after the Middle East War, the international and regional naval of the Republic's Navy was recognized and became a first-class navy on par with the US Navy. Therefore, after that, the Republic's Navy became more conservative.

At the end of the year, the Ministry of Defense of the Republic approved the construction of the second batch of "Qingzhen, Class aircraft carriers", and approved the improvement design of the third batch at the beginning of the following year.

In other words, the Republic not only did not slow down the construction of the navy, but instead accelerated the construction of new warships and made the decision to rapidly expand the strength of the navy. In fact, this is also the most direct challenge to the United States. You must know that except Canada and Mexico, any other country must first have the most powerful navy in the world. From the standpoint of the United States, the most intolerable one will appear at a sea that can pose a threat to the United States Navy.

.

Affected by this, the US authorities also approved the Navy's expansion plan at the beginning of the year.

Compared with the Army and Navy, the Air Force has the least impact.

Relatively speaking, the Air Force is an "absolute" offensive force. In Du Hei's "air control theory", it is emphasized that the value of the Air Force's existence is to attack. Instead of shooting down enemy fighters in the air, it is better to blow up enemy fighters on the ground. Therefore, a truly powerful air force is definitely mainly bombers, not fighters. Although after World War II, with the advancement of technology, the strike capabilities of fighters have greatly increased, and affected by price factors, the number of bombers is getting smaller and smaller. Even in the United States, the number of bombers is only a few hundred. By the century, it has been reduced to less than a hundred. However, in combat use, ground strikes are still the main task of the Air Force.

Of course, technically speaking, the Air Force needs to switch from offense to defense, mainly structural adjustments, that is, the proportion of heavy air combat aircraft in the fleet. For the Republic and the US Air Force, what we need to do is very simple, that is, spend more money to purchase more and better air combat aircraft to strengthen air defense combat capabilities.

It can be seen from this that whether it is the army, navy, or air force, under the new guiding ideology of combat, the first thing to do is to purchase new weapons and equipment to promote new tactics. In fact, this is the essence of the arms race, that is, the Ran war idea to promote equipment construction, which will have an impact on the country's economy, and ultimately make the country ready for the war during this period and set a foundation for the final result of the war.

The problem is that no one can ignore the influence of the "Fourth Army", that is, the Heavenly Army!
