Trust me, we’re not divided like the world thinks. We may seem divided during “peace time” bcuz our freedom isn’t at jeopardy, but the moment we face outside adversity, we come together.
It’s like the Orks in Warhammer lol. They’re genetically bred to grow at alarming rates and also produce fully self sustained societies. Their born from spores, and these spores create dozens of mushroom species with different purposes for the Orks, different animals for them to eat and use, and then eventually Orks to grow and fight. When there’s no external threat, Orks fight amongst themselves in brutal conflicts; but the moment an external threat comes in, they band together and become a green tidal wave of destruction that will wipe out all life throughout the stars if possible.
@@rottenbutter360 I have thought long and hard on that... I believe North Korea must turn the canoe over and walk on the ocean floor. Plus they get to then count one piece of equipment as two ships!!!
Hundred of millions. We have a current projected population of 341 million people. They're not all citizens. As of 2022, the U.S. was projected to have 393 million privately owned firearms. A true number is unknown because of these weapons aren't registered. Invading this country is the worst thing you can do.
Happened before with the twin towers. I remember the national pride and unity that came from that event. However, it must be said that there are a lot of people who were not born yet and know nothing of unity other than unity for whatever trend is popular on social media and will get them clicks. There are American citizens inside this country that hate it to its very core (yet still don't want to leave, go figure). There most certainly are people who would oppose that national unity as they have been completely demoralized by psychological warfare... If tragedy were to strike, I hope we have what it takes to fight off the enemies of our great country... both from outside and within.
The one thing that America has, we always stand together, when an enemy messes with us as a nation we will come together. America loves freedom to much to give it up. We actually aren’t divided, the media, our own media, likes to put it out like that. Which is crazy, our own media throwing us under the bus, giving this idea that we are divided and weak. “We the people”, not the government. We the people stand strong, always have and always will.
@jonathanbirch2022 stop regurgitating main media BS. You and those that think like you do, are the reason people think America is divided. I’d rather be poor or a person of color (POC) in America before being any of those two in another country. If your born poor here in America a you don’t have to die poor. But that’s how it is in most other countries, your born poor, you die poor. You have a way of making a living to better yourself mentally, physically, and monetarily. POC, 🙄 highest paid athletes are black, most famous movie actors and actress are black, the top of top brain surgeon in America is black (grew up in a single family home, not rich but poor, mom working hard to provide, urban areas, and push and pushed for her son to go to a better school then the one he was going to), there was a black president, most popular and richest musicians and performers are black, most successful tv shows, talk shows are hosted by a black person, most watched and grosses the most money are black, the list goes on and on. How do you think they got there, it wasn’t by only POC pushing them to the top, I know that because POC only make up 13-18 percent of America. Who else do you think got them to where they are? All the other non-POC that supported them also. Nice try.🤣
@@shaylablueangel Your comment clearly shows just how simple you really are. We are divided in a very big way and sadly morons like yourself add to those divisions.
Also daily people are leaving military service and being replaced by new fresh people, so there are about 5 million former service members running at any given time with military experience and a lot of them are armed as well.
What she failed to add to number of personnel serving is that China, India, Russia, and N Korea is that they are required to serve, whereas in the USA we have an all volunteer military, that would increase in time of war

If you go find out what that word means there is a slight chance you will understand what is being said in plain English.
@@paulmartin2348 This. Two of my sons spent many years in Afghanistan and Irag. Abrams and infantry. I asked the 11B about starting up the draft. He gave me the "here's your sign" look and promptly told me, "I don't want a guy near me who doesn't want to be there." Mind you, both of these men enlisted while we were at war. It was deliberate.
As a veteran of the cold war (1983-1987), I re-enlisted in 2005 and can tell you first hand how trained we are. The first time I received my M16, having not seen one in 20 years, I broke it down and re-assembled in about a minute (I didn't time myself, but we used to have speed drills on disassembly and assembly). Then for driver's training, I got in the biggest vehicle and drove it around as if I have been driving it for a while. Got licensed on all the vehicles after that. Point I'm trying to make is that if needed there are hundreds of thousand veterans in the US, from Korea to present. We still have a couple WWII vets but they wouldn't be able to fight. The vets are as deadly as the military.
As an American (retired) soldier, I was sent to fight for the freedom of others to preserve the freedom that Americans believe in. In my active years it was hard to see people who clearly loved freedom but were unwilling to fight for it. I find it rejuvenating to see people like the Ukrainians fight so hard to remain free and hope more people will adapt this mentality. For most of my life people have thought we were the beacon of freedom, but today they stand on the frontline to defend it. They have my prayers and my respect.
Thank you for your service Hypothetically if there was a war In attack on America half a million of the enemy solider wouldn’t even land near the beaches or anything if your a true American born or not raised and America if u love your rights and constitution in your founding father u will pick up a FUKING gun in go crazy in thats that’s U can be 30s 40s 50s u gone fight for your land rights ppl family etc then we got Mexico canda Brazil down there shi
Everything you see about North Korea is that they have a lot of stuff. But it's so old. It was from the Korean war. Their subs are old diesel units and boats are small old coastal boats
@@RAL0981 they have a hell of a lot of weapons though, including nukes. there's a very good reason they haven't been invaded, they can defend themselves.
The question on the aircraft carrier, 11 are the largest aircraft carriers. Those carry fighter jets. The others are smaller, but still huge. The smaller ones are for dedicated helicopter transport or can be used to carry mixed equipment. The only planes that can use the smaller carriers are planes that allow for vertical takeoff & landing. The Osprey operates as, both, a plane & and helicopter. Also, though there are 20, not all are constantly active, but most can be in service quickly. Lastly, outside of Neuclear powered ships that can go constituously for a year or more with no need for fuel or maintenance issues.
read about the Battle of Gettysburg - 3 day battle, approx 43, 000 dead. Across 3 days they didn't have time to clear the fields of the bodies, so they were fighting across mounds of dead.
Did a Gettysburg Battlefield tour with a personal guide, Mike Rupert (look him up on the web he’s a licensed Battlefield Guide) with my son a couple of years ago. It was an awesome experience. What those men went through is nothing short of amazing. Our spoiled citizens have no idea what our country has gone through to fight for Justice in our country and around the world.
Us here in the United States was falling apart but as soon as 9/11 happened you have 300 plus million Americans ready for war. That is one thing about us americans if anybody tries to attack like a famous quote from a Japanese commander on pearl harbor said we've awakened the sleeping giant. So at the if or when that would ever happen again one thing is a certain Americans would rally up again fight.
This is a different generation of Americans, addicted to their cell phones, video games, luxury lifestyle, tattoos, and self indulgence. Not like the old days buddy.
The channel was adding Amphibious Landing Ships with a flight deck as aircraft carriers. All of these channels talk of weapons and personnel, it's refreshing to see one that gives a good account of logistics. WWII forced America to master logistics in order to project our power across the Pacific and into Europe at the same time. American logistics have only improved since.
An Amphibious Assault Ship’s primary role is to carry a Marine Expeditionary unit with their support aircraft and ground vehicles. They don’t fit the criteria of “Carrier” in the US classification because of their Jack of All Trades approach. But, other nations classify them as carriers because they’re similar in tonnage and role to other nations’
@@lucashenry6281 The Wasp and America classes are designed to carry ~1700 Marines. They do support their ground forces with aircraft, but their primary goal is to get the MEU where it needs to go
We are surprised you did not go to San Diego, California or Fort Hood, Texas while in the U.S. It should also be noted that Veterans from past wars, although not in the Ready Reserve, could be considered to be pre-trained for combat.
The extra 9 "Aircaft Carriers' are not considered aircraft carriers by the US Navy. They are Amphibious Assault Ships intended for landing marines on an enemy beach. The helicopters and STOVL airplanes that they carry are intended to transport marines and provide fire support for landing operations.
@@haydencohn2746 hahaha, bud that is not even true. And is easily debunked, if that was true, don't you think the US would deploy massive force to Israel to defend production of the armor. Make your own thoughts, don't listen to your dad who listens to goofy ahh propoganda.
That blurred part of video was to match what she was saying. How the future of USA is not easy to see. As for having less tanks.. Well that's because our tanks can fire accurately at a much greater distance. I've had military buddies that were in major battles tell me how they could zip along pretty fast in the tanks and accurately fire without slowing down. Basically, our tanks can take theirs out long before they could get close enough to fire.
@@blackberrythornswhat 3rd world country have we lost too lol😭 and we could walk in your tiny country and change the way you live for the rest of your life buddy
1:25 the U.S. has 1.4 million ACTIVE military. but it's estimated that there are 2.5 million in reserve AND if a draft was every pushed, they would be able to conscript up to 75 million (men only). This also doesn't include the former military personal that now works as para-military for companies that contract to the U.S. government. those people are all highly trained military people that can also be contracted as possible mercenary for the U.S. government or military. 1:44 the U.S. has the largest AND second largest airforce (Airforce & Navy) additionally, EVERY branch of military has it's own 'airforce' (Army, Marines, Coast Guard, National Guard). 4:28 even though the U.S. is 4th in number of navy vessels, they other 3 nations are using very old and very poorly maintained vessels, thus they might as well not even use them or be counted. 5:07 as the Ukrainian war has shown the world, Russia's equipment, including tanks, are woefully outdated and mostly scrap that can still barely move. it's estimated that up to a 1/3 of their tanks can't even move on their own.... same for China and NK. meanwhile, the U.S. has a strict maintenance and upgrade policy for their equipment. 5:59 the U.S. has the 'star wars' program and they are constantly training and testing the ability to shoot missiles out of the sky, so the likelihood that a country could launch a nuclear attack from a ground based silo and actually strike the U.S. is extremely low. AND no other country had this capability, even though they keep trying and spending money to try and build their own systems. 9:17 the U.S. pays over 90% of NATO's budget and has been carrying all the other countries for decades. ALL NATO countries are required to pay 2% of their GDP to NATO, but a majority of countries FAIL to do this, and yet they criticize the U.S. on a variety of things like 'universal health care' (which isn't actually 'universal' and not 'free' to it's citizens, they are just taxed at a higher rate and that money is used instead of them paying out of pocket when they use services), foreign polices, ect... www.usnews.com/news/best-countries/articles/2024-02-12/only-35-of-nato-countries-meet-the-groups-defense-spending-target 10:24 I love seeing the U.S. military marching alongside other nations. it's humorous to see how crazy they do their marching and how inefficient their marching is. 11:06 it's up to $848 BILLION in 2023. this is MORE than the next TEN countries COMBINED!!!! 13:26 American culture and education is also instrumental in undermining the culture and traditions of countries that are oppressive and tyrannical. Additionally, American technology in the hands of enemies can be easily turned against them or shut down completely. robbing them of the ability to communicate or coordinate, giving the advantage to the U.S. military in that war. 13:58 we're seeing the results of a low 'Will to Fight' in the Ukraine war where Russian troops are fleeing the battlefield, going AWOL instead of being called up to be deployed, and surrendering to the Ukrainian troops instead of fighting.
I've never heard of any one in Britain that has not gone to hospital beacause they can't afford it or been in debt beacause of our NHS . The way you come across is extremely arrogant and pretty insulting to other countries . But hey your the greatest country on planet earth so I guess you have bragging rights .
@@claregale9011 There are lots of misconceptions about our healthcare system. I won't go into all of them here, nor will I say we have a great system. It's not as bad I've heard friends abroad state it is. We do have socialized healthcare for lower income, free medical advice via counties; the ability to be treated regardless of ability to pay for emergencies... Sometimes it's cheaper to bypass insurance or go through the Affordable Car Act. I'm not gonna say our system is great--because its not. But there are good healthcare options. Our prescription costs are a big problem.
The 2nd largest would be the Army if you're including the 5000 or so helicopters they have. So the US has the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd largest Air Force technically.
Beesleys. Some other countries may have more of this and that. The biggest difference is the technology of the U.S. equipment!! WE have several treaties with many nations that we will honor!! Our military these days is all professional and volunteers with great training & a good educational foundation to build on! You two should find and watch five reasons not to mess with the U.S. military. Parts of it are scary!! Check it out!!! Take care you two!!!
Another big difference in addition to the technology is how well trained our military is. When not in war; we train like we are. Or at least we did when I was a Paratrooper in the US Army.
Can you imagine how supportive millions of people in the USA would be of The UK people if they where attacked in any way? I was in the 101st Airborne when the Falklands happened. UK military had our unwavering support...
I am surprised you did not see much military around San Antonio, as there are several major military bases in San Antonio. There used to be 7 or 8, but in recent years some of them have merged into joint bases. This includes Lackland AFB, Randolph Joint Base, Ft Sam Houston ...
5:36 The numbers for Russia are now outdated. But Russia has long believe in "quantity has a quality, all it's own" philosophy towards its equipment. They still have ww2 equipment in storage for "potential" use.
Everyone has old equipment in storage for "potential" use. The US has M-113 APCs that were designed in the 1950s in storage. The USAF has B-52s flying today that first flew missions over Korea, and are expected to remain in service for another 20+ years. ...and never forget that any statistics that measure "total" US Navy strength, are factoring in the USS Constitution since it is still a commissioned vessel!
In the U.S. military, Sargents can make on the spot, battle field decisions that in the Russian military can only be made by colonels or above. This makes the U.S. much more agile and quicker to react.
We have numbers but it's not just about the numbers. Old vets like me will talk crap about the military we see now but our training and technical ability and the fact that everyone is there because they want to be is what keeps us on top. It is our chosen profession!!......SPARTANS
When counting raw assets, a lot of context is needed. The submarines from North Korea for example, are basically tiny 1950's or 1960's diesel subs. They are nothing but food for a Virginia class.
We’re like a drunk Mexican birthday party , we might have a fight with each other in the middle of the party but if an outsider crosses the line with the family you gonna feel the full wrath of everybody here for sure
Quote by Lockheed Martin Director Ben Rich right before passing away at the hospital in 1995 "We already have the means to travel among the stars…Anything you can imagine, we already know how to do...
@@tor4472 For example the F-117's development began in 1975. Developed by Lockheed Martin under the code name "Half Blue" program was kept secret, It wasn't until 1990 that the F-117 made its first formal public appearance. The public will know about what Ben Rich was talking about in a formal announcement when there is a reason to know about it. Ben Rich gave a speech at Wright Patterson airbase and UCLA in 1993 also right before passing away at the hospital in 1995.
I'm a US citizen and I love your reaction to this video. One thing they didn't mention is that not only do we have the strongest military, we have the heaviestly armed citizens in the world. If by some chance you're lucky enough to make beachhead on American soil, you are going to be looking down a barrel from behind every tree.
8:06 well they would probably lose supply and freeze or have to fight locals in Alaska which could make them fall back because usually lots of people hunt so they could have a gun also good video had fun watching!
North Korea counts their "national guard equivalent" water craft in their navy. however these are small waterway craft and are not for open ocean. at most these craft would be shoreline patrols and recognizance.
I forgot who said this joke but it went something like “The Afghanistan conflict was just to keep USA and its allies match fit ready in case the Germans wanna try a third time.” 😂
I'm a blue collar worker and pretty much everyone I know and work with own and shoot firearms, many collect them, so already have small arsenals. I've seen non military trained farmers use various rifles and hit targets at 1000 yards with each one. A land war would be incredibly difficult with the number of rifles civilians own. We're just comfortable with guns here. Foreign soldiers would be taking fire constantly from militias while trying to move from one location to another.
after watching so many videos about any one subject i would be like F dat ... i aint watching anything related to that again ... respect for the grind, thank you for always seeming open and curious in your videos ... and hope you achieve the results you want for the work you are putting in.
Before the Ukraine War, we had Russian coworkers come to Texas for training. Took them to the shooting range with our own weapons, and the surprised look on their faces when they see how many rifles and handguns each of us brought. They understood why attacking the continental US is a losing battle.
I'm so glad to be an American....we protect every country in the world that are bullied on...we are not bullies...even though we are in wars all over the world...we want to protect country's that cant protect them selfs...
Will to fight . .. that's how Brits survived WW2 due to their grit. And the video overplays the division in the US. We had internal crisis during the civil war and we held together we had internal conflict during world war II and we held together we had severe internal conflict in the 60s and early 70s due to Vietnam but we held together and nearly won that war anyway. JS
It’s not just how updated the equipment is, it’s also how well maintained. A lot of what the US has is still old but has been well maintained and modified with new tech. Which though not always more in number is certainly better in quality.
A lot of people don't realize how insanely overpowered the US Military is. This is my favorite stat. The most powerful air force in the world is the US Airforce. The 2nd most powerful air force in the world? The US Navy. The 3rd? Russia. The 4th? US Army Aviation. The 5th? US Marine Corp.
Don't let anyone tell you that the US is divided. The division among parties goes all the ways back to our beginnings, with the Federalists vs Antifederalists, Democrats vs Whigs and now Democrats vs Republicans. The only difference is now we live in a time where that division can be thrown in your face every moment. If anything is true, it's among the disagreements, Americans will always rally together to face any adversary.
I've had family members fight in every war going all the way back to The War of Independence. Fighting in service to this nation seems to be in my family's blood. There's a level of unity in America that many of our enemies and even some of our allies do not understand. To the rest of the world, we can seem terribly divided. To be honest there has been a level of moral decay especially these last few decades. Sure we argue about politics, and we disagree sometimes and have internal conflict. Just like any family who has disagreements among themselves. But the second another nation threatens us we are unified. I feel a great swell of pity for any country or organization that decides to make the United States of America their enemy.
Russia uses a very outdated soviet era tank that they tried to modify with those cage things but they were just ripped to shreds by drones and hi-mars. We use the very modern A1 Abrams with reactive armor that can easily wipe the floor with any Russian tank. Even if they managed to fire something the reactive armor instantly destroys the incoming projectile if it even gets close. They also fire the precision munitions that we developed meaning they are screwed. The battle at conaco oil fields proved this fact.
@@RAL0981 russia is rolling an enormous amount of new tanks off the assembly lines these days, way more production capabilities than you since you deindustrialized.
We are many different people from all over the world working together for freedom. Unfortunately with our freedom we all have big mouths and we argue because we are brothers and sisters. Now, push my brother or sister and find out. United we stand divided we fall.
@@blackberrythorns And? WTF does that have to do with warships? Our capacity to build huge, advanced warships is light years ahead of China. After 2 decades they are still having a hard time floating a completely inferior aircraft carrier. China's sub can be heard half an ocean away. LMAO
They didn't even talk about military communications and information. The US military has superior command and control aircraft as well as satellite observation and communication capabilities. They also have a major advantage when fighting at night or in any adverse weather conditions.
Handling a Ruger Mk.IV (guessing) and an AR, is nowhere near being trained. Edit: yes that handgun was a .22LR which means it’s the least powerful handgun in open production.
Interesting discussion and the video was a good try at analysis. A critical factor where the us dominates is space forces. Leave his out and you’re missing a gigantic power differential from all other countries. Consider also what would happen if its systems were attacked, especially systems like GPS that is central to most financial trades, gas pumping, etc.
Actually...the largest air force in the world belongs to the United States. The SECOND largest air force in the world belongs to the United States Navy.
When it comes to our politics it is nothing new. We’ve been bickering amongst ourselves like this for 200 years and it will go on for 200 more. we have always been divided. When terrorist attack they believe it will divide us but you see were never really that divided Pearl Harbor 911 US come together real fast. and I do not agree with the last two minutes of this video. We will debate and fight about a topic until we come to conclusion, and then we will fight about a new topic until we conclude that and then the next and the next. Our enemies might see us as tearing ourselves apart, but attack us and find out how together we really are.
I know it’s been 2 months since post but also here in the us the guns the us are really good compared to others, and the armor made for the soldiers are better than anyone else because Russia was seen using cardboard because they were out of plates
When a carrier group pulls into a small island nation, that nation becomes short on bacon and eggs, and i dont mean the shelves on storea is empty for a day. The whole nation is just out of bacon and eggs.
This video failed to mention each branch of the military has reserves, who can be activated at any time, and each state has a National Guard that can also be deployed overseas if needed. And they all voluntarily joined. You also need to factor in 32-44% of citizens are also armed (depending on the source).
"Helicopter Carriers", not mini carriers. In WWII the smaller carriers were called "Light Carriers" The USA has the largest Navy by tonnage (20 Carriers).

Point I'm trying to make is that if needed there are hundreds of thousand veterans in the US, from Korea to present. We still have a couple WWII vets but they wouldn't be able to fight. The vets are as deadly as the military.
Very few allies can effectively fight alongside American forces. The British or UK forces are among the few that can.
Russia has far less tanks now thanks to Ukraine
True
have you seen how many they're currently producing? massive production.

@@RAL0981 i'm telling the truth, your hubris is going to be rewarded with further failure. big time this time though.
As an American (retired) soldier, I was sent to fight for the freedom of others to preserve the freedom that Americans believe in. In my active years it was hard to see people who clearly loved freedom but were unwilling to fight for it. I find it rejuvenating to see people like the Ukrainians fight so hard to remain free and hope more people will adapt this mentality. For most of my life people have thought we were the beacon of freedom, but today they stand on the frontline to defend it. They have my prayers and my respect.
Thank you for your service
Hypothetically if there was a war In attack on America half a million of the enemy solider wouldn’t even land near the beaches or anything if your a true American born or not raised and America if u love your rights and constitution in your founding father u will pick up a FUKING gun in go crazy in thats that’s
U can be 30s 40s 50s u gone fight for your land rights ppl family etc then we got Mexico canda Brazil down there shi
Everything you see about North Korea is that they have a lot of stuff. But it's so old. It was from the Korean war. Their subs are old diesel units and boats are small old coastal boats

The question on the aircraft carrier, 11 are the largest aircraft carriers. Those carry fighter jets. The others are smaller, but still huge. The smaller ones are for dedicated helicopter transport or can be used to carry mixed equipment. The only planes that can use the smaller carriers are planes that allow for vertical takeoff & landing. The Osprey operates as, both, a plane & and helicopter. Also, though there are 20, not all are constantly active, but most can be in service quickly. Lastly, outside of Neuclear powered ships that can go constituously for a year or more with no need for fuel or maintenance issues.
I'm a Marine and it always fascinates me every time I see a reaction on our military from another countries people. LOL

Israel thanks you for your service.
read about the Battle of Gettysburg - 3 day battle, approx 43, 000 dead. Across 3 days they didn't have time to clear the fields of the bodies, so they were fighting across mounds of dead.
Did a Gettysburg Battlefield tour with a personal guide, Mike Rupert (look him up on the web he’s a licensed Battlefield Guide) with my son a couple of years ago. It was an awesome experience. What those men went through is nothing short of amazing. Our spoiled citizens have no idea what our country has gone through to fight for Justice in our country and around the world.
56,000 I believe dead...
Us here in the United States was falling apart but as soon as 9/11 happened you have 300 plus million Americans ready for war. That is one thing about us americans if anybody tries to attack like a famous quote from a Japanese commander on pearl harbor said we've awakened the sleeping giant. So at the if or when that would ever happen again one thing is a certain Americans would rally up again fight.
This is a different generation of Americans, addicted to their cell phones, video games, luxury lifestyle, tattoos, and self indulgence.
Not like the old days buddy.
The channel was adding Amphibious Landing Ships with a flight deck as aircraft carriers. All of these channels talk of weapons and personnel, it's refreshing to see one that gives a good account of logistics. WWII forced America to master logistics in order to project our power across the Pacific and into Europe at the same time. American logistics have only improved since.
Remind me what aircraft carriers have that make them unique? Oh it’s a flight deck isn’t it? Ok.
are helicopters and VTOL not "aircraft"???
An Amphibious Assault Ship’s primary role is to carry a Marine Expeditionary unit with their support aircraft and ground vehicles. They don’t fit the criteria of “Carrier” in the US classification because of their Jack of All Trades approach. But, other nations classify them as carriers because they’re similar in tonnage and role to other nations’
@@rossponding incorrect. All USN amphibious assault ships are designed to support their expeditionary forces. They do that by fielding aircraft.
@@lucashenry6281 The Wasp and America classes are designed to carry ~1700 Marines. They do support their ground forces with aircraft, but their primary goal is to get the MEU where it needs to go
The worlds second biggest airforce is actually owned by the USA too. It’s the US Navy, they even took top gun from the airforce lol.
I believe it's like 4 of the top 5 Air Forces are the different US branches
the navy🎉 has ots own airforce
the navy has it's own army (the marines)
there is also the coastguard plus the national guard
USA has the #1 Air Force kid not 2nd
We are surprised you did not go to San Diego, California or Fort Hood, Texas while in the U.S. It should also be noted that Veterans from past wars, although not in the Ready Reserve, could be considered to be pre-trained for combat.
You really want them to go to the cesspool that is Fort Hood?
The extra 9 "Aircaft Carriers' are not considered aircraft carriers by the US Navy. They are Amphibious Assault Ships intended for landing marines on an enemy beach. The helicopters and STOVL airplanes that they carry are intended to transport marines and provide fire support for landing operations.
Our military's tech is way more advanced since we invent pretty much everything military related.

That blurred part of video was to match what she was saying. How the future of USA is not easy to see.
As for having less tanks.. Well that's because our tanks can fire accurately at a much greater distance.
I've had military buddies that were in major battles tell me how they could zip along pretty fast in the tanks and accurately fire without slowing down.
Basically, our tanks can take theirs out long before they could get close enough to fire.

the U.S. has 1.4 million ACTIVE military. but it's estimated that there are 2.5 million in reserve AND if a draft was every pushed, they would be able to conscript up to 75 million (men only). This also doesn't include the former military personal that now works as para-military for companies that contract to the U.S. government. those people are all highly trained military people that can also be contracted as possible mercenary for the U.S. government or military.
1:44
the U.S. has the largest AND second largest airforce (Airforce & Navy) additionally, EVERY branch of military has it's own 'airforce' (Army, Marines, Coast Guard, National Guard).
4:28
even though the U.S. is 4th in number of navy vessels, they other 3 nations are using very old and very poorly maintained vessels, thus they might as well not even use them or be counted.
5:07
as the Ukrainian war has shown the world, Russia's equipment, including tanks, are woefully outdated and mostly scrap that can still barely move. it's estimated that up to a 1/3 of their tanks can't even move on their own.... same for China and NK. meanwhile, the U.S. has a strict maintenance and upgrade policy for their equipment.
5:59
the U.S. has the 'star wars' program and they are constantly training and testing the ability to shoot missiles out of the sky, so the likelihood that a country could launch a nuclear attack from a ground based silo and actually strike the U.S. is extremely low. AND no other country had this capability, even though they keep trying and spending money to try and build their own systems.
9:17
the U.S. pays over 90% of NATO's budget and has been carrying all the other countries for decades. ALL NATO countries are required to pay 2% of their GDP to NATO, but a majority of countries FAIL to do this, and yet they criticize the U.S. on a variety of things like 'universal health care' (which isn't actually 'universal' and not 'free' to it's citizens, they are just taxed at a higher rate and that money is used instead of them paying out of pocket when they use services), foreign polices, ect...

American culture and education is also instrumental in undermining the culture and traditions of countries that are oppressive and tyrannical. Additionally, American technology in the hands of enemies can be easily turned against them or shut down completely. robbing them of the ability to communicate or coordinate, giving the advantage to the U.S. military in that war.
13:58
we're seeing the results of a low 'Will to Fight' in the Ukraine war where Russian troops are fleeing the battlefield, going AWOL instead of being called up to be deployed, and surrendering to the Ukrainian troops instead of fighting.
I've never heard of any one in Britain that has not gone to hospital beacause they can't afford it or been in debt beacause of our NHS .

Way too long, you get 3 sentences.
@@claregale9011 There are lots of misconceptions about our healthcare system. I won't go into all of them here, nor will I say we have a great system. It's not as bad I've heard friends abroad state it is. We do have socialized healthcare for lower income, free medical advice via counties; the ability to be treated regardless of ability to pay for emergencies... Sometimes it's cheaper to bypass insurance or go through the Affordable Car Act. I'm not gonna say our system is great--because its not. But there are good healthcare options. Our prescription costs are a big problem.
Technically we have the largest Airforce in the world with the second largest airforce belonging to the US Navy heh.
yep. And they still cannot track the F22 :)
The 2nd largest would be the Army if you're including the 5000 or so helicopters they have. So the US has the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd largest Air Force technically.
@@E-1337 That's a good point. A lot of airframes in the Army.
Beesleys.
Some other countries may have more of this and that. The biggest difference is the technology of the U.S. equipment!! WE have several treaties with many nations that we will honor!! Our military these days is all professional and volunteers with great training & a good educational foundation to build on! You two should find and watch five reasons not to mess with the U.S. military. Parts of it are scary!! Check it out!!! Take care you two!!!
Another big difference in addition to the technology is how well trained our military is. When not in war; we train like we are. Or at least we did when I was a Paratrooper in the US Army.
America has to protect the Beesleys there for must protect Britain.🇬🇧🇺🇸🙌🏼
I agree
Can you imagine how supportive millions of people in the USA would be of The UK people if they where attacked in any way? I was in the 101st Airborne when the Falklands happened. UK military had our unwavering support...
I am surprised you did not see much military around San Antonio, as there are several major military bases in San Antonio. There used to be 7 or 8, but in recent years some of them have merged into joint bases. This includes Lackland AFB, Randolph Joint Base, Ft Sam Houston ...
The 9 smaller carriers are Troop Transport ships. Such as the USS WASP. It's a flat deck ship for rotary vehicles.
5:36 The numbers for Russia are now outdated. But Russia has long believe in "quantity has a quality, all it's own" philosophy towards its equipment. They still have ww2 equipment in storage for "potential" use.
Everyone has old equipment in storage for "potential" use. The US has M-113 APCs that were designed in the 1950s in storage. The USAF has B-52s flying today that first flew missions over Korea, and are expected to remain in service for another 20+ years.
...and never forget that any statistics that measure "total" US Navy strength, are factoring in the USS Constitution since it is still a commissioned vessel!
@@bobprivate8575 bit they are still in use in active service. Russia has already replaced stuff from ww2 and Korean eras.
...and they now pulling out T-52 tanks from, just after WW II, welding some plate on the front and sending them out in Ukraine.
Always take quality over quantity
Fun fact: china has good trade relations with the USA so if there is conflict it china might not get involved. The USA also has boston dynamics
They didnt mention the US Space Force!
In the United state ppl!
In the U.S. military, Sargents can make on the spot, battle field decisions that in the Russian military can only be made by colonels or above. This makes the U.S. much more agile and quicker to react.
We have numbers but it's not just about the numbers. Old vets like me will talk crap about the military we see now but our training and technical ability and the fact that everyone is there because they want to be is what keeps us on top. It is our chosen profession!!......SPARTANS
When counting raw assets, a lot of context is needed. The submarines from North Korea for example, are basically tiny 1950's or 1960's diesel subs.

Quote by Lockheed Martin Director Ben Rich right before passing away at the hospital in 1995 "We already have the means to travel among the stars…Anything you can imagine, we already know how to do...
Did he give a reason why we don't use it then?
@@tor4472 For example the F-117's development began in 1975. Developed by Lockheed Martin under the code name "Half Blue" program was kept secret, It wasn't until 1990 that the F-117 made its first formal public appearance. The public will know about what Ben Rich was talking about in a formal announcement when there is a reason to know about it. Ben Rich gave a speech at Wright Patterson airbase and UCLA in 1993 also right before passing away at the hospital in 1995.
The difference is our soldiers willingly fight it’s a great honor they are resilient don’t give up .
I'm a US citizen and I love your reaction to this video. One thing they didn't mention is that not only do we have the strongest military, we have the heaviestly armed citizens in the world.

A comedian's take on that exact circumstance..
8:06 well they would probably lose supply and freeze or have to fight locals in Alaska which could make them fall back because usually lots of people hunt so they could have a gun also good video had fun watching!
North Korea counts their "national guard equivalent" water craft in their navy. however these are small waterway craft and are not for open ocean. at most these craft would be shoreline patrols and recognizance.
I forgot who said this joke but it went something like “The Afghanistan conflict was just to keep USA and its allies match fit ready in case the Germans wanna try a third time.” 😂
I thought y'all had done this video already, based on the thumbnail. Good thing I actually started to watch and see it's not the same video
Don't forget the advanced technology that the U.S. has.
We Americans do argue amongst one another as families do... but if a stranger hurts one of us we all stand as one. As demonstrated on 9/11.
As demonstrated at Pearl Harbor
well said.
I'm a blue collar worker and pretty much everyone I know and work with own and shoot firearms, many collect them, so already have small arsenals. I've seen non military trained farmers use various rifles and hit targets at 1000 yards with each one. A land war would be incredibly difficult with the number of rifles civilians own. We're just comfortable with guns here. Foreign soldiers would be taking fire constantly from militias while trying to move from one location to another.
He’s enjoying the video but the girl is bored lol
after watching so many videos about any one subject i would be like F dat ... i aint watching anything related to that again ... respect for the grind, thank you for always seeming open and curious in your videos ... and hope you achieve the results you want for the work you are putting in.
Before the Ukraine War, we had Russian coworkers come to Texas for training. Took them to the shooting range with our own weapons, and the surprised look on their faces when they see how many rifles and handguns each of us brought. They understood why attacking the continental US is a losing battle.
I'm so glad to be an American....we protect every country in the world that are bullied on...we are not bullies...even though we are in wars all over the world...we want to protect country's that cant protect them selfs...
You are wonderful people.
I wish these two people would be quiet so we could hear the whole video
Will to fight . .. that's how Brits survived WW2 due to their grit.
And the video overplays the division in the US. We had internal crisis during the civil war and we held together we had internal conflict during world war II and we held together we had severe internal conflict in the 60s and early 70s due to Vietnam but we held together and nearly won that war anyway. JS
It’s not just how updated the equipment is, it’s also how well maintained. A lot of what the US has is still old but has been well maintained and modified with new tech. Which though not always more in number is certainly better in quality.
She said "They have 11" get used to saying "we have 11" you're part of the club now guys.
Our politicians have divided the younger people...they had better wake up or we may be doomed!
A lot of people don't realize how insanely overpowered the US Military is. This is my favorite stat. The most powerful air force in the world is the US Airforce. The 2nd most powerful air force in the world? The US Navy. The 3rd? Russia. The 4th? US Army Aviation. The 5th? US Marine Corp.
Its not the military you have to worry about in America. Its the over 80 Million armed citizens.
Don't let anyone tell you that the US is divided. The division among parties goes all the ways back to our beginnings, with the Federalists vs Antifederalists, Democrats vs Whigs and now Democrats vs Republicans. The only difference is now we live in a time where that division can be thrown in your face every moment. If anything is true, it's among the disagreements, Americans will always rally together to face any adversary.
Do you have Black Ops, navy Seals, army Rangers, green braes 82nd and 101st airborne. Division to made their name all over the place
I've had family members fight in every war going all the way back to The War of Independence. Fighting in service to this nation seems to be in my family's blood. There's a level of unity in America that many of our enemies and even some of our allies do not understand. To the rest of the world, we can seem terribly divided. To be honest there has been a level of moral decay especially these last few decades. Sure we argue about politics, and we disagree sometimes and have internal conflict. Just like any family who has disagreements among themselves. But the second another nation threatens us we are unified. I feel a great swell of pity for any country or organization that decides to make the United States of America their enemy.
"I feel a great swell of pity for any country or organization that decides to make the United States of America their enemy." Well said!!!!

It is still in 1st.
It is also practically impossible to invade the US with any kind of ground force.
you guys are awesome.. :). i looked forward for a new video all the time. thank you for doing this kind of videos.. means alot. U.S.A/U.K. :).
Russia uses a very outdated soviet era tank that they tried to modify with those cage things but they were just ripped to shreds by drones and hi-mars. We use the very modern A1 Abrams with reactive armor that can easily wipe the floor with any Russian tank. Even if they managed to fire something the reactive armor instantly destroys the incoming projectile if it even gets close. They also fire the precision munitions that we developed meaning they are screwed. The battle at conaco oil fields proved this fact.
why are there so many destroyed a1s then? they took them off the battlefield because they're useless.
why are so many of your tanks being destroyed then? they even took them from the front as they're useless.

We don't need the US MIlitary. We have you both trained with weapons now! 😂
Handling a Ruger Mk.IV (guessing) and an AR, is nowhere near being trained.

All reasons as to why the UN should be paying us for protection
They said ONLY 65B because Lockeed earned 60B on its own. 1 company made 5B less than Russian annual spending.
Interesting discussion and the video was a good try at analysis. A critical factor where the us dominates is space forces. Leave his out and you’re missing a gigantic power differential from all other countries. Consider also what would happen if its systems were attacked, especially systems like GPS that is central to most financial trades, gas pumping, etc.
What day to fight on other than the fourth of July?
Actually...the largest air force in the world belongs to the United States. The SECOND largest air force in the world belongs to the United States Navy.

Only takes one action to solidify this country’s resolve.
This video failed to mention each branch of the military has reserves, who can be activated at any time, and each state has a National Guard that can also be deployed overseas if needed. And they all voluntarily joined. You also need to factor in 32-44% of citizens are also armed (depending on the source).
"Helicopter Carriers", not mini carriers. In WWII the smaller carriers were called "Light Carriers" The USA has the largest Navy by tonnage (20 Carriers).
When I was in Kaiserslautern, Germany I saw row after row of US tanks in the hundreds at a US armory.
