For the Pacific forces to dare prosecute a blinding campaign or lightning war or fast blitzkrieg against the defence

force of the PRC (in the event of an outbreak of hostilities), it must be absolutely sure of victory. Thus the Pacific forces with the very powerful backing of the secretive clique or conspiratorial group that consists of the war-loving Congress, the big defence establishment, the Pentagon minders and the intelligence agencies has come up with the perfect battle plan to ensure victory. Their plan is to overwhelm the PRC defence via saturation attacks starting Zero hour of Day 1 (0H1D). Aircraft consisting of fighters, bombers, EW attackers, and combat drones (1,2) will mass in the air to launch crippling attacks. Conventional ICBMs and cruise missiles (3,4) will neutralise all anti-air locations including the ones located at sea. Hypersonic aircraft will hit inland missile sites and other vital centres to reduce the PRCs strategic defence assets to complete rubble. With anti-air / attack missile defences out of the picture, STOVL and helicopter carriers, stealth submarines and landing craft (6,7,8) will press ahead with amphibious assaults on the coasts with littoral warships and destroyers (9,10) providing covering fire. Rotor transport planes like the Osprey and C-130 turboprops based in Japan and Korea will bring along allied paratroopers and commandos to help the amphibious assault forces. Total or utter defeat is dead certain in the face of such a powerful force and therefore the PRC cannot escape the 0H1D plan by the Pacifc forces. But the PRC is no ordinary foe or some ordinary helpless victim. To slow down and eventually neutralise 0H1D, the PRC must now prepare huge reserves of missiles, guns, planes, men for use to wear down this enemy !
