The Red Sea crisis has prompted the reform of the U.S. Navy, and China remains on high alert

In military operations, actual needs and actual combat experience often drive the reform and upgrading of military equipment. Recently, the U.S. Navy's events in the Red Sea have exposed a number of problems that have forced them to revisit and adjust some of their shipbuilding strategies. According to reports, the US Navy faces a dilemma of insufficient firepower, especially when dealing with drones and anti-ship missiles from the Houthis. Despite the fact that the existing equipment is equipped with close-in defense guns and lasers**, its limited range makes it difficult to effectively intercept incoming targets at long distances. In the Red Sea incident, U.S. ships had to undertake a large number of interception tasks, but the number of carriers** was limited and could not meet the defense needs, especially in the face of a large number of drone swarm attacks.

This reality has caused the U.S. Navy to re-examine its equipment and combat strategy. They realize that traditional equipment configurations and tactics may no longer be suitable for the current and future war environment. In particular, in the face of a possible conflict with China and other major powers, the U.S. Navy may face a more complex and high-intensity form of warfare, and traditional defense methods are no longer up to the task.

Against this background, the US Navy began to pay attention to the importance of reloading capabilities at sea. They realized that the lack of an effective reload capability would severely constrain the Navy's combat capabilities, especially in prolonged operations and high-intensity conflicts. At present, only a few submarines in the U.S. Navy have reloading capabilities, and the number is limited, making it difficult to meet the needs of the war.

Although the United States faces multifaceted challenges on a global scale and its national strength is being depleted, they are not inactive. The experience of events in the Red Sea is pushing the U.S. Navy to reform and adjust to new patterns of warfare and real needs. This requires us to remain vigilant, especially in the Pacific, where U.S. actions could have repercussions for countries such as China.

We need to pay close attention to the changes and adjustments of the U.S. Navy and make timely preparations to safeguard our national interests and security.
