This is literally how the US budgets its defense spending. How many of x do we need to fight China and Russia at the same time at their front door.
Edit: I should probably say equipment reserves (planes and shit) because there's a lot of dark money shit in there.
“Dark money” I think is a hopeful euphemism for waste, graft, overcharging, etc.
When the DoD fails every audit, it's that shit.
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I recall reading something like "only 39%" of the Pentagon's defense budget can be accounted for.
Articles like this are just prepper wanking oil.
The US is not duking it out with any of these countries. China is too busy making all the world's plastic shit, and Russia's only weapon is the ghost of Cold War past.
So, enough for a war with China.
Plus like 10 guys with pointy sticks.
What is Russia going to do? All of their best military units are already dead both in terms of hardware and personnel.
The Russians have already gone up against Western hardware and lost so we've essentially had a preview of the war except no Western forces have been engaged in that war. So apparently Russia is going to attack an enemy who is at full fighting strength when they themselves are severely depleted and are actually at this very moment relying on drafting.
America is more than ready, considering how much we spend on the military. This article is a few years old, and definitely sensationalist, but is still an interesting read-
And on top of that, the US Army just started deploying robotic troop carriers, and is finishing up remote combat vehicles for the front lines so that first contact isn't with soldiers. Yes, we're going to have killer robots on the front line. And soon.
Lol, America spends enough to take on just about the whole world
