The British Economist named 5 vulnerabilities of the US army. The publication explains that the state has focused on the production of armored vehicles and drones, having stopped working on new technologies.
Journalists also draw attention to the fact that while the Americans were inactive, China and Russia modernized their armed forces and pose a real threat to the United States.
American technology has become more advanced, but at the same time more accessible to others.
At this time, the PRC managed to quickly catch up, created missile weapons, electronic warfare systems, anti-satellite weapons, submarines, fighters, and air defense systems. The third problem is that it is becoming more difficult for US aviation to detect mobile missile launchers. American reconnaissance satellites are also not protected from attack.
According to Pentagon chief Chuck Hagel, the United States must urgently develop its military technology, otherwise another country will drop the challenge to America.
