Franz-Stefan Gady contends that the US military's current approach to a potential war over Taiwan is flawed, relying heavily both on achieving rapid information superiority and on a decisive victory. This is unlikely to succeed and may increase the risk of nuclear escalation between the world's only genuine superpowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA US-China war would more likely be characterised by prolonged attrition across multiple domains (cyber, space, air, sea, and land) — a conflict for which America's military and society are ill-prepared. The US also lacks a viable blueprint, the military forces, or the industrial capacity for a long war of attrition. This deficiency stems from a military culture prioritising advanced technology over mass, and the lack of political will or public readiness for the sacrifices such a conflict would require.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGady's research and analysis, both of the highest order, reveal the significant risk of strategic defeat for the United States in a potential conflict with China, whether in the 2020s or 2030s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47486117708012,"sku":"9781805263760","price":57.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/1914718c2e3adab89a1de9c46c650421.jpg?v=1775780934","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/how-the-united-states-would-fight-china-by-franz-stefan-gady-9781805263760","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
