Recently, the drama on the stage of the western Pacific has been extremely exciting, and the reality of the five-aircraft carrier fleet plan that the United States once boasted about has come very quickly, and now there is only one of the five US aircraft carriers that roars at China! It's jaw-dropping, but what's the situation?
The United States has been hotly discussing recently that the magnificent scene of five American aircraft carriers in the western Pacific is about to appear. They claim that three American aircraft carriers are already cruising in the western Pacific and that two more are on the way. This news caused an uproar in the spread, and people are speculating about the purpose of the United States** to hype it up.
Some believe that the U.S. move is intended to project its strong and unshakable image, while at the same time putting pressure on China by displaying combat equipment. Subsequently, a professor at a British university also expressed a similar view, pointing out that the US Navy's deployment intention is very obvious, which is to deter China.
However, just when the heat of the US aircraft carrier group has not subsided, reality has given the United States a resounding slap in the face. What is surprising is that the five US aircraft carriers that were originally prepared to roar at China in the western Pacific are now only one left! What's going on here?
According to the disclosure of the world, the situation of the five aircraft carriers previously advertised by the United States is not true, but false information fabricated by the Americans out of thin air. Indeed, some time ago, three US aircraft carriers were operating around China, namely the USS Carl Vinson, the USS Roosevelt, and the USS Reagan. However, the number of aircraft carriers has not increased, but has decreased, and now only the "Roosevelt" aircraft carrier is still in the western Pacific, while the "Carl Vinson" has left Pearl Harbor on the 19th of this month, and the "Reagan" needs maintenance and may leave the port of Yokosuka and return to the mainland of the United States.
As for the aircraft carriers that the United States called the "Washington" and "Lincoln" to arrive in the future, the plan has never been fulfilled. The fact is that the "Lincoln" has returned to its home port as early as the middle of this month, and the "Washington" is not a reinforcement but a possible replacement for the repaired "Reagan", the so-called "replacement." Therefore, the number of American aircraft carriers, diametrically opposed to American ** propaganda, will only decrease, not increase.
This incident once again demonstrates the tendency of the United States to deliberately exaggerate in order to exaggerate American power. However, with the rise of China's naval power, the bravado of five American aircraft carriers in the western Pacific is no longer surprising. The situation is no longer what it used to be, and as China's navy grows, even eleven U.S. aircraft carriers moving side by side could end up in the Western Pacific. Perhaps, the United States also understands this, and the more aircraft carriers are dispatched, the more likely they are to face a substantial threat of complete bankruptcy.
This time, the US aircraft carrier strategic plan has been dealt a severe blow by reality. On the stage of the Western Pacific, the American performance was not as wonderful as expected, but became an embarrassing farce. For China, this is undoubtedly a victory and a powerful riposte to American arrogance. In the future, with the development of the international situation, the battle of aircraft carriers may usher in a new chapter, let us wait and see and witness the changes of history!
