      Bro!! Wishful thinking!! It would go nuclear ☢️ before this could happen. The reason it would go nuclear is because China would have nothing to close but to destroy the other countries that participate in the invasion of China. Japan and some parts of the United States would cease to exist. China has too many attack submarines and missiles to sit and let their country be taken over.

    What I've learned from watching a lot of Binkov videos is that most countries can't successfully invade other countries without taking massive losses unless they are many times more powerful.

    Hi Binkov. One important factor that should go into your model is oil. As was shown in WW2, oil limitations severely crippled Nazi Germany's ability to maintain both wartime production and fuel for its fighting vehicles and planes. In peacetime, China's economy consumes 13 million barrels per day (B/D) of oil. Of this amount, 5 million is produced domestically (largely concentrated in Heilongjiang province); 1.8 million B/D is sent from Russia by pipeline, which totals 6.8 million B/D. That means that 6.2 million B/D...roughly 48%...is shipped in by sea route via the Malacca Strait, a serious choke-point. Within a month of the assembly of US Navy assets in that area (an area free from Chinese defense), the US could simply cut off half of China's oil supply.

    • @SkinnerBeeMan
      @SkinnerBeeMan 4 роки тому +4

      Food is a much larger issue. If you'll read half the reason for genocide in ww2 was limited food stocks to continue the war. Farming then was more manpower intensive tho, and stalin had destroyed agriculture in Ukraine. Add in drafting all the farm help and out see this is a slippery slope. In 1944 corn was $7 a bushel. It's 3.50 today. But the point to make is I don't think China could survive a long drawn out action as their biggest asset (population) is actually their biggest weakness. Can they survive without protein imports? I don't know. But if they all cross the ocean to get there the american navy is in a stronger position to disrupt trade on deep water than china is to secure those routes outside of shallow water. Add in the british ex empire navies, nato, local navies etc, I just don't know where those soybeans will come from or how they can expect to get to china.

Every thing not military related would be shut down or severely rationed. Plus with China operating in their own region they would not be a great increase consumption of fuel. One of many great failures of the German war effort was how far they operated outside of thier own country.

I don’t think South Korea would jump in, but the US would immediately withdraw our combat units from South Korea AND verbally weaken our commitment in defending South Korean from a North Korean attack, which would place South Korea in a jam since she would have to basically go onto a war footing to protect her own borders. As for Canada, she currently doesn’t have enough combat power, Naval and Air power to really matter. France, Germany, and most of Europe would stay out, but we would pull our combat units out of Europe and telling them not to count on a 100% commitment or an immediate and massive American forces to be deployed to NATO to beat back a Russian attack. We would match French and German numbers that they commit to the fight. In a war, there is no need to invade China since the US can sink her Navy, mash her Air Force, destroy her coastal missile/radar defenses and cripple her harbors and ports. Plus, the US would attack her satellites as well. Yes, China would put up one hell of a fight and would cripple the US military in return. As for those Chinese manmade islands in the South China Sea, they would be attacked and cut off from Chinese reinforcements AND I would bet that Filipino Marines and Rangers, along with Vietnamese Naval Infantry will seize these islands that LEGALLY lay within areas under their control before being stolen by the Chinese. Both the Philippines and Vietnam would receive American Naval support, but they would not join in any other operations or attacks. The wild card is India, but doing the math, India would sit it out. Any fight between the United States and China would mainly be a Naval and Air fight. Both the US Army and Marines would play a minor role unless the mistake was made to invade.

      sir, things changed, China currently has the most lethal missiles and better radars than USA
      I’m not bluffing but in fact Chinese military is extremely good when it’s doing a defense, it seems to believe that its missiles are future, so now we all know that it will lunch hundreds of hypersonic missiles from its mainland and they will destroy military bases in first island Chain and SK, Japan in minutes
      (actually they even have some naval based hypersonic missiles)
      and I believe that the US won’t take advantage in air combat either, the F/A 18s can not outcompete J16 (basically SU27+filled with Chinese techs and engines), and F35s also have problem: they can not arrive in the battlefield quickly enough before J20 wipe out the tankers and awacs(Chinese awacs are also more advanced now, why don’t you guys update weapons more often?????)
      But a brutal and costly damned war won’t happen if the US don’t intervene Taiwan affairs militarily…

      The US cannot afford to let China take Taiwan, despite not having a defense treaty. The US/Quad alliance is the only country that can stand up against China. The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) is on the verge of global domination. If the US/Quad alliance dos nothing other countries will say the US ether could not or would not stop the CCP and so they cannot. They would have to aqueous to all the CCPs demands and eventually be controlled by the CCP. This used to be called the domino effect. In time the CCP would become so powerful the US would have to do so too. The CCP would spread its propaganda/censorship/surveillance state all over the world and no one would have freedom or democracy. Freedom of speech would disappear globally. Concentration camps would proliferate worldwide.
      > IT WOULD START LIKE THIS: The CCP assumes the US will help Taiwan. The PLA (People’s Liberation Army) attacks Taiwan, the US Navy, and US basses in and around the SCS (South China Sea) preemptively. The US/Quad alliance destroys china's navy, takes the artificial military islands, and lays sedge to mainland China with the hope of regime change or at least containment. The US maintains constant military and economic pressure on the CCPs” Military Industrial Complex” with standoff weapons. In time the CCP anti-aircraft capability might be degraded to the point where less expensive and more effective gravity bombs could be used. With their massive numerical advantage invading mainland China is not an option as it would result in massive casualties and if the CCP elite felt threatened risk a nuclear exchange. The CCP would welcome casualties to trim their population. This would only make them stronger as they already have more people than their land will support (1.4 billion, four times the US population and four times the number of mouths to feed with the same amount of land). China is not self-sufficient in oil, food, iron ore, rare earth ore and many other things. China would become another North Korea. A negotiated peace or even a cease fire would not work as the CCP would not honor any deal it made, rearm, and try again. The only thing that would stop the CCP is the inability to attack. To stay in power and preserve their luxurious lifestyle the CCP would become even more vicious and repressive then they already are. Hopefully, this would result in a revolt that brings down the CCP, vastly improving the quality of life of the Chinese people. The war might go cold in time all by itself without any type of agreement or declared end. There would be no exit strategy. Containment would be the order of the day or maybe the decade or even longer, leaving The Quad free to attack specific targets whenever necessary and close the Strait of Malacca to the CCP. With all deference to Binkov’s Battlegrounds the object of the exercise would be to protect Taiwan, stop CCP expansionism, keep the international sea lanes open, and eliminate the threat to and theft of resources from other countries, NOT the conquering of china. The CCP is watching the US military now free of INF Treaty restrictions reorganize, build capability and alliances in the SCS. Maybe this will be enough to deter them.

    So, China is not the threat that the western media likes to portray.
    Secondly, the Chinese government could easily and quickly increase the amount of military spending, and they are investing many billions into advanced weapons like hypersonic glide missiles, anti carrier missiles, laser weapons, very long range SAM and AAM, anti satellite missiles, anti radar missiles, advanced sensors, Stealth aircraft, etc etc, so they are serious about not being in a weak position ever again.
    They have the money, industrial capabilities, technological skills, etc that allows China to design, develop, build, deploy and operate large numbers of very advanced weapons and equipment, if they feel the need to do so.
    Thirdly, the whole of China's military is concentrated in China, they have a massive and very modern coastguard (bigger than most navies), a very strong armed police force, a large border guard, civilian police force and various other paramilitary forces, they would be a very tough enemy by anyone's standards.

This is where UN forces learned how to fight the PLA, made adjustments and pushed them back just north of the 38th, fighting a numerically superior enemy to a stalemate. The US helped do this with an extended supply chain over 5000 miles long. PLA combat deaths = 180,000, US combat deaths = 33,739. Yeah I believe that takes determination.

    It would be so bloody and costly that the war would never even happen to begin with, even when putting nukes aside. See, China's military doesn't *need* to be as strong as the US's; as long as it's strong *enough* to make costs unacceptable, it can deter a war in the first place, essentially winning without firing a single shot. The US has only gone to war with much weaker opponents who have no capabilities of striking the US mainland in return. And seeing how China fought the US to a standstill in Korea with inferior technology, the US has even worse odds of winning now.

And if we destroy their economy it’s going to affect us as well since they’re our second biggest trade partners. We really don’t want to escalate things with Russia too. If countries like Japan can interfere then countries such as N.K (almost a puppy state of China) would definitely help them. Of course if there was ever a war I certainly volunteer, but I don’t want to invade into China crossing 5000 miles of mountains and jungles when we couldn’t even take the Vietnam.

    Am I the only one who said, "What?!?" when the A-10 was listed with the fighter planes?? I mean it's in the name: the "A" in A-10 means "Assault" as in "ground assault" (just like the "A" in F/A-18). A-10s are extremely capable low-altitude anti-tank, anti-materiel, close combat support, low-level bombers which were essentially built around their enormous (over 20 feet long) Vulcan Cannon. They are NOT, nor were EVER meant to take on other planes (although they would have done great against WW2 and even Korean War planes, had they existed back then). Just cause some people use them in a fighter role in some video games, does not mean that such things in anyway reflect actual military reality.
    I know you do a lot of research for these, but details like these really make one question things.
    Also, because of the extremely cautious nature of US combat, due to risk-averse popular support, there is no way we'd engage in any kind of aerial combat that would lead to losses of 12 fighters a day for even a few days, let alone long enough to whittle us down by thousands of planes. That simply is not believable for US combat. Not because we're invincible or so amazing, but because the US populace would never stand for it, unless there was truly no other choice, and even that would take a great deal of convincing, and an enormous deal of confidence in the convincer.
    You should take that into account in any follow up videos.

    As a Chinese, I don't think this war is even possible at least in 50 years. First, China and US are mutually first trading partner even during ongoing trade war and global epidemic, and there's just no pragmatic incentive from both side to start a war. Secondly, don't underestimate the production capacity of either country as what Germany thought of Soviet and Japan thought of U.S during WW2. U.S is currently spending way more budget than China both in value and percentage to total GDP, but balance may change if countries shift focus to military equipment, and both countries know it. Lastly, both countries has nuclear weapons and long ranged missiles that can cover major cities of the opponents. A mutually destructive war is not in anyone's favor, and maybe the doom day of human civilization.
    The only possible "war" is that politicians, in attempts to divert public tension, vilify their theoretical rival country to gain support from the citizens.

    the answer is yes, very easily. this is only because there are 1.5 billion chinese people who are waiting for prime opportunity to overthrow the CCP. if a war does break out with a strong country like USA, there will be nationwide civil disobedience in china as well as tons of regional rebellion and armed revolution against local government. CCP central government in Beijing will struggle to hold on to power, and they will certainly not have the resources to continue fighting for long, due to large scale civil disobedience and nationwide revolt against their dictatorship. America will basically walk into an easy victory after minimal firefight, because oppressed chinese citizens will do most of the heavy lifting removing CCP.

    The Chinese Airforce now has 250 x J-20 stealth fighters, not the 40 that they had just a few years ago. Each year, the Chinese Airforce gets more new planes than most airforces have in total. The Chinese navy gets more new ships per year than the French, German or Spanish navy's each have in total.
    The video states that China has just 2 carriers, with the US having 11 x CV carriers and 10 x LHD/LHA.
    But in 2023, China has 3 x CV carriers and 3 x LSH medium carriers, plus more being built as we speak, yes a lot less than the 21 x USN CV and LHD/LHA but 6 CV/LSH with at least 2 more being built equals 8, many more than the 2 carriers back when this video was made.
    China has the technology, the industrial capabilities, the raw materials and the financial resources needed to build up their military quickly.
    Another example is the number of aircraft carriers that China had just 10 years ago, they had just one carrier, now they have 3 carriers and 3 medium helicopter carriers (which are bigger than the carriers of Italy, Spain, Australia, Japan, etc) plus more are being built.
    The number of DDG destroyers used to be less than 25 not so long ago, now they have 50+ modern destroyers, with at least 10 under construction at the moment, and another 50 modern FFG frigates with 20 more being built or ordered and 50 light ASW frigates, not to mention the hundred plus CCG coastguard destroyer and frigate sized vessels that are all modern.
    The PLA Navy and the CCG have around 250 large ships (300 to 600 feet long) that are classified as combat vessels, not including the literally hundreds of medium sized ocean going vessels and the hundreds of smaller ships, this combined fleet outnumbers every European navy combined (70-80 x submarines/150 x major surface vessels/6 carriers (CV and LSH)/40 large amphibious vessels/100+ missile attack craft/hundreds of PLA Navy support ships and 1,200 x CCG and 850 x MSA maritime safety agency vessels).
    The Chinese naval aviation has more advanced jet fighters than most countries airforces have!. And despite what some people like to believe, the ships, aircraft, tanks, missiles, etc that are built in China are far from being cheap and shoddy, they have the second biggest defence budget, nearly $300 billion last year alone. ($300,000,000,000 ).

    There is no way that the US, alone or even as part of a coalition, would want to undertake an invasion of the Chinese mainland. It would be madness.
    Back in the 1920s and 1930s, US wargames tried scenarios of an invasion of Japan following a successful advance across the Pacific (including defeating the Japanese navy). The results were always the same: the expeditionary force would be wiped out before it could be reinforced.
    Even "Operation Downfall," the planned invasion of Japan in late 1945, would have failed as planned. The navy had withdrawn its support for MacArthur's original design, because Japanese troop strength on Kyushu was twice what the plan anticipated, and no alternative had been agreed on when the A-bombs fortunately made an invasion unnecessary.
    It would be even worse attempting an invasion of China. Insanity.
    A US-China war would likely be a replay of what happened in World War II: choke off China from key resources it almost totally lacks and must import by sea, oil in particular, and food. Starve its economy and people until it collapses.
    But invasion? No way.

    The Chinese understand that money talks, which is why they have so much invested all around the world, and have become the biggest trading partner to most of the whole. They know that wars are fought for economic reasons, and wars break out when the aggressor believes that the potential gains in economic, financial and industrial power, policy influence and international image and status are worth the possible losses and costs involved in fighting and winning.
    If the aggressor decides that the gains are would the costs and effort, then the likelihood of a victory that is viable and even possible, if the targets country is too large or likely to be hostile to occupation that is a major deciding factor, then the likelihood of victory and potential of defeat needs to be calculated.
    China is in the position of being too hard to defend on the battlefield, too big to be occupied and pacified by the invasion forces, and is too vital to the rest of the world economic for the aggressor to get much support from its allies, neutral countries as well as domestic and international business leaders etc.

      Gr33ny TheRevengemaster I think Russia would want to stay neutral. When the war is over, the damage to the worlds economy would be immeasurable. If Russia doesn’t participate, they can possibly become the number one world power no matter who wins the war. And, they might sell equipment to either side of the war, similar to the us before they joined both of the world wars. It would just be much more advantageous for the Russians if they stayed neutral.

    Pretty much agree with the videos conclusions that the US invading China just isn’t practical without other nations help. The manpower disparity, the distance to invade, and the amount of land to invade is just to much for the US to conquer from a nation not to far behind tech and equipment wise. I think if the US wanted to it could probably contain China to its borders on the ocean fairly easily which one of the many reasons I think Tawain remains separate at the moment. Basically there isn’t much of a chance of either nation ever succeeding in an invasion on the other but at the moment the US could probably hurt China pretty bad and possibly cause a coup or rebellion but the US as a democracy runs a similar risk of the war stalling out like Vietnam.

    Binkov kinda already covered this, but A smarter US strategy instead of invasion would be this: Don't invade china, focus on interdicting China's trade and isolating it from the international community: Get India, Korea, and as many other nations as possible on your side and use your military to strangle China economically instead of wasting lives on a *very* tenuous land invasion. Even if India, Vietnam (if the CCP is willing to loose Russia's suppourt), or other nations were in a land war with china, a US invasion is asking for nuclear escalation. Instead, drag the war on for decades in a geopolitical siege until the CCP collapses under its own weight, since they now can only rely on themselves and a very small number of nations willing to brave international sanctions and a naval blockade for supporting them.
