    I think when he said “no nuclear weapons” he meant atomic bombs. Not nuclear powered subs. That’s not a weapon. It carries weapons but the sub itself is just nuclear powered

      Jason ryals is right, the video said no nuclear weapons.......
      Not nuclear powered vehicles........
      Though these vehicles do have the capability of launching nuclear weapons this hypothetical war would not use the nuclear weapons themselves but that does not mean we would not use nuclear powered ships or submarines..,.....
      Heck all of our super carriers are powered by nuclear power and can remain on the ocean so long as they have food and ammunition....... Of which during wartime can easily be resupplied through air power....
      The majority of missiles on our submarines aren't even nuclear weapons, but instead ballistic missiles.......
      Which would allow us to hover outside of enemy Waters launching attacks on enemies with impunity....
      But one should not ignore the nuclear weapons on such vehicles for a nuclear war...... For every single nuclear powered submarine is set up with targets already designated to attack if nuclear war breaks out...
      And even if every human being on American soil is wiped out during this war every single soldier within these nuclear powered ships and submarines would be alive and would continue wiping out all enemies on the planet using nuclear weapons they have until America is finally safe to rebuild........
      It is one of the major parts of our contingency plans involving nuclear war.......
      We may suffer immense casualties but we will win no matter what........
      Heck we have contingency plans for if every single human in the us both military or land is wiped out to continue the legacy of America for the next generation of humans that shows up and decides to occupy the land........
      Of which will guide them and give them the power to recreate America in the image it once had......
      This is also designed to apply even if all humans on Earth are wiped out and a different intelligent being takes their place.....
      America is not a people, a place, or a single organization, but an idea..... A way of life intended to be protected and carried on even if all humans go extinct........

      @@huntergermany5909 My undergrad degree capstone class was centered around gun control and gun ownership in America. I’m not an expert but I know a bit more than the average person and I’m betting a bit more about you. Read the Gun Debate by Goss and Cook and see how little defense the US would had if it just relied on its citizens that had guns. Remember that percentage about 38%-40% are people who live in a house with a gun! Not people who owns and can operate a gun. So that number of 122 million would be drastically reduced since include people who just so happen to live in a house where a firearm is present. And then you have to reduce it further to people who may know how to use their weapon but not in a military style combat. This weird militia fantasy y’all have is really weird and not practical! Especially since other countries have access to weapons that would make any semi-automatic firearm look like a play thing. So yeah, if the US came to the point where they had to rely on citizens to fight, it’s not going to look that great!!!!

    It doesn't get mentioned really in the video, but one of the things that helps the US is that it is actually one of the least integrated economies in the world. US exports trade-to-GDP is only about 12%, one of the lowest national percentages in the world, and a third to nearly half of the foreign trade the US does do is entirely internal to North America (Canada and Mexico). This means that the US doesn't rely on foreign trade to sustain itself with very few exceptions.
    It IS true that the US buys a lot of consumer products from overseas (China in particular), but none of it are things that the US is incapable of producing on its own, particularly as much of the things that the US buys from overseas are designed in the US in the first place. The US is fully capable of manufacturing those things, but chooses not to out of convenience and cheaper labor costs. Incidentally, the US is currently going through the greatest period of re-industrialization in US history due to numerous factors, including changing global demographics, American geopolitical attitudes, and of course Covid too.
    Another major factor is the Shale Revolution, which is allowing the US to become entirely energy independent for the next half century at least, meaning international politics has even less influence on US energy policy than it used to. It has also dropped US energy prices down to some of the cheapest in the world, with Natural Gas selling almost at cost because it is a 'waste byproduct' of the Shale Oil that they're actually trying to get. As a result of American law, the Oil companies have to build Natural Gas infrastructure alongside the other infrastructure they build, which gives the Natural Gas an automatically usable system to be used for domestic energy consumption, making it the cheapest in the world.
    There are numerous other factors that makes the US highly self sufficient, but the short of it is that the US COULD disengage from the rest of the world without too much sacrifice in living standards. It seems a little crazy, but it's true.

      This is not true. The ONLY weapon system the US can POSSIBLY do this to is the F-35. The F-35 needs special maintenance codes for the software that the US generates. However, the UK is a Tier 1 partner in the program so they can ALSO generate these codes. All other weaponry that is sold is sold as is. There is no backdoor to shut down the weapons. The US would never build this feature into a weapon because if it exists, it can be hacked.

    The biggest thing holding the world back would be the lack of unified command, lack of a common language, and each country looking after itself.
    In world war 2 the US and the UK had huge issues deciding what strategies to focus on and how to distribute limited resources, most notably fuel after the Normandy landings.
    If 2 countries with a shared language had trouble coordinating, how would 10+ countries with as many languages do. Without an ability to concentrate their forces against the US, the US could defeat in detail it's opponents.

    @thesarcasticliberal Před 2 lety +34

    This video gives a pretty decent overview of part of such a war, but neglects a couple key factors.
    First, in a total war scenario like the one proposed, the US would have the power to not only choke off the world's oil, but also destroy the water treatment plants and farmland that make wide swathes of the world livable (while producing its own food, much like the oil situation). It is virtually impossible to continue an offensive war if your nation is imploding due to famine, and the US in that kind of war could use this to its advantage by tying up soldiers to keep order in their home countries rather than attacking. This is a massive advantage that there is no easy way for most of the world to avoid (eg. what can the Saudis do when their power plants and water plants are bombed from the air and any support is blocked via the US navy--they are suddenly in the same situation they put Yemen in, and millions are at risk of dying within the year).
    On the other hand, a key intangible factor to such a war that would make operations significantly more complicated for the US is the fact that we are a nation of immigrants, and have citizens who have family in literally every other nation on earth. These connections mean that such a war would be politically impossible to sustain for any amount of time, as domestic political pressures in the US would force a peace deal.
    Also, while I get that it isn't part of the hypothetical, there isn't really a world where the US would lose all of its alliances. At an absolute minimum, Canada, the UK, Israel, India, South Korea, and Japan would side with the US, which would basically be the end of all opposition. Israel alone can beat the rest of the Middle East in a fight, which would enable the US to more effectively control the oil supply, India, Japan and South Korea would act as forward operating positions for containing China and Russia, and the UK would be a forward operating position for the European theater, as well as a source of navy assets who could lock down Western European waters while the US dedicates resources elsewhere; Canada would contribute to the oil and food supplies that would sustain the war effort, and potentially help intercept Russian planes and missiles aiming at the US.
    Fortunately, this type of war is just a thought experiment, as there is little doubt that the US would win, only in that it would be able to declare itself a victor while sitting on top of the wreckage of human civilization (ie. it would "win" by virtue of being the least destroyed in a world where most nations are rubble).

    The #1 advantage the US has is geography and the ability to control supplies. The US is resource secure in the Western Hemisphere where as other countries can be controlled through trade choke points, particularly oil. You saw the impact of this in full effect when that huge cargo vessel blocked the Suez Canal and messed up world wide trade. The US has the ability to easily dismantle those types of systems if they wanted to. The US being the #1 producer of oil in the world plays huge as well.
    EDIT: I think you would find Dessert Storm stuff interesting. In the First Gulf War, Iraq had the fifth largest army in the world and the US/Allies thought it could be a costly war. What ended up happening was a textbook case of modern warfare showing how outdated older tactics were. That war pretty much wrote the book on how large military's fight in the 21st Century.

    What happened in Desert Storm? We didn't destroy any oil refineries really, that was Iraq under Sadam Hussein. They set Kuwaiti oil wells on fire as they retreated.
    What we did was deny their use of Kuwaiti oil assets, destroy their air defense and anti-aircraft capabilities, their Scud missile sites and other long range missile systems, their armor and artillery assets, their logistics supply system, their airfields, and performed strategic strikes against Bagdad and important infrastructure targets. In no time at all we had neutralized his military and sent what was left of it packing back to Iraq.
    I was there, eight months total including a couple of weeks of air war to kick it off and only two days of ground war. Sadam underestimated the coalition led by the United States, and we kicked his a**. This was 1990-1991, perhaps you weren't even born yet.

    It’s not nuclear weaponry. They’re nuclear powered subs. Just means essentially infinite fuel

    To answer your question about what happened in desert storm I strongly urge you to react to “the air campaign Desert storm” 1&2 followed by the ground war. It will show how effective the US was at surgically removing a nation’s military network and crippling them. It is so satisfying to watch

    Russia and India went in together on th Su57 "Felon" which is a great looking fighter and would promise to be a great adversary in 5th generation fighter action. Problem is funding, I think India pulled out after awhile in development. Boeing offered F15ex cooperation and russia offered su57 again. It's mostly an issue of funding. Funnily enough india wants their own 5th generation fighter to maintain parity with China after they revealed the chegdu j20 which is also dealing with a combination of funding and development issues.
