America takes a lot more tankers like a state empire, waiting to remove the fuel with the Red Hill

As President of the United States Donald Trump is hosting South Korean President Lee Jae Miung for a wide meeting this week, about $ 150 billion for American investments in connection with the shipwreck is on the line. And with the US / Korea defensive alliance and a package of $ 350 billion for discussionSouth Korea can deal with several challenges focusing on the construction of Korean medium-sized tankers in the United States, ensuring that the US army remains encouraged and ready to go.
Where the fuel is in question, the logistical situation of the Navy in the Pacific Ocean is at best dangerous. 2022 year, after years of bad governance in the Navy Fuel storage of red hills It set fire to the contaminating supply of Hawaii water, the Defense Department excluded the outdated obsolete, Depot Srbtir Vart II-Era. With about 250 million gallons of backups, the storage of fuel ready, the United States is to articulate warfighting strategy, which makes the lost fuel warehouse or for urgent fuel to move freely at the time of the crisis.
The answer is easy-to-more ships. At the basic level, the US Navy requires many more tankers. Using Korean aid, the United States can build several tank products, guarantee that the US military will not end up stranded in the central Pacific, and the lack of fuel ships and aircraft must determine China, Russia or, on that issue.
35 Korean Cisterns – Mobile, Hard-to Target Fuel Warehouse From Red Hills
As I wrote 15 years agoThe US Navy accepted the logistics challenges of the disputed Pacifica in slow. Instead of returning in 2022. Year to alleviate the lack of America in the central pacific reversal, the Navy did not do anything.
But the Ministry of Defense has never clearly announced the goal for replacing the lost fuel of the red hills, preferring, instead of engaging in a small bureaucratic legerdemain try To the “reposition fuel stored on the Red Hill by using commercial infrastructure”, including us marked and crews “on Afloat warehouses”. A good part of the red hills fuel ended abroad, in Japan, Singapore, Australia or Philippines, while the others ended on the west coast, in California or Washington.
Another fuel red bridged in the Department of Defense Departments and outside the title, the US Navy put a logistical challenge to become fuel in the pacific struggle behind her. Despite the prolonged concern from the United States Command, which America needs access 86 tanks During the future Chinese conflict, the Navy has not accelerated any tank programs, and the American Maritime Administration did a little to encourage interest in American troops. Defense leaders were sitting on their hands, refusing to recognize the need for it, racing tank cisterms.
Instead of using Red Hill crisis to press multiple tanks, that the Navy has considered an alternative to contracts several lazy, indirect fuel storage, which has abolished “economical and responsible use of taxpayers’ resources.”
Today, the defense department that operates in the central Pacific without much in the way of significant fuel reserves. To move 250 million gallons of refined fuel, the Navy must fight, the fleet will require at least 23 tankers. Use Defense DepartmentNaval needs 23 “Mid-range type conflicts that are about 600-ft with a capacity of about 11 million gallons.”
In order to compare and wear, America will probably need about 40 middle sizes tanks to recover the flexibility to the sacrificed loss of the red hills fuel warehouse. In order for America to keep in crisis, America will need hundreds of tanks in American markings – and the only way that America can get them is through the design, advanced production and development of large shipyards in America.
The Navy must move rapidly to ensure Korean tanks:
The Navy is reluctant to direct funds away from the fighting fleet. Despite Largesse from “One Big Nice Account Account”, tanks have yet to find their way to any Pentagon budget. This can all change quickly if the Navy becomes real about their fuel requirements, it will recognize that the silent patience will be disputed and faced the logistics challenge of storing huge numbers of autonomous Corvetes and other small supports.
Certainly, America has little shipbuilding to build Korean tankers, moving to support bilateral trade agreements in USAs, can easily use their billions to establish a strong industrial industry to America but new shipyards are long-term investments. They do not “turn on” overnight and can only be built completely during many presidential administrations. In order for Korea to become investments in shipbuilding in which long-term, Korea, new shipyard in Korea needs a job. They need real, long-term contracts.
Navy Navy can monitor their new head of Navy Operation and the White House – quickly moves to purify, propose back sincere fuel mobility strategies. Addressing the sending supply of red Hill, with the possibility of long-term fund, the new Korean shipyards can produce Korea, rolling on and progress to the new Korean shipyards in the first 40 tank products.
Help is at hand. American capital capital holding patriotic investors – it was never more willing to help in the waterfront. If the Navy undertakes that the long-term (twenty-year-old) lease for the first 40 practical masks produced in the Korea agreements, the US financial views, the guaranteed orders needed to be installed in a modern shipologist in modern shiphouse.
Regardless of how much technology or the American security situation is developing, America will need small korean tankers in medium-sized dimensions – and a lot of them. If we wait an urgent situation to realize our logistical shortcomings, it will be too late. It was never a better time to try to build Korean tankers here, in America.
