As global tensions increase, a detailed simulation has illustrated how the United States might respond if it were to face an invasion. Concerns about the onset of World War III are growing, especially after President Donald Trump ordered a US strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities in June, prompting Iran’s foreign minister to warn of ‘everlasting consequences’ for America.
In Eastern Europe, tensions persist with President Biden meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin to seek an end to the invasion of Ukraine, though no ceasefire was achieved. Additionally, Trump has initiated trade conflicts with Canada, Mexico, and China, the latter posing a significant threat due to its vast military and ongoing disputes.
The YouTube channel ‘The Infographics Show’ has developed a simulation detailing how the US might respond to an invasion by Russia and China.
The scenario begins with Seattle under attack, as airstrikes ignite the city, and a Chinese amphibious force lands troops on US soil.
“The president is urgently awakened and rushed toward a secure bunker as aids relay the staggering news,” the simulation describes.
Just seven minutes later, Air Force and Air National Guard units nationwide mobilize in response.
“At least 16 air bases have fighters on strip alert under ‘Operation Noble Eagle’ – the post 9/11 Homeland Air defense mission,” it details.
“In Fort Worth, a pair of F-16s take off even before their pilots are fully awake.
“From Massachusetts to Hawaii, ready alert jets F-15 Eagles, F-22 Raptors, and FA18s from Navy stations are airborne within minutes, vectoring toward potential threat vectors.”
The simulation continues: “Their immediate task is to intercept enemy aircraft, shoot down inbound missiles, and identify any possible follow-on threats.
“NORAD (The North American Aerospace Defense Command) and the FAA (Federal Aviation Association) jointly issue a national ground stop on all civilian flights 9/11 style, but this time to clear the skies for what may become a prolonged air war over US soil.”
It suggests that ‘all 50 state governors activate their Army and Air National Guard units,’ encompassing nearly 325,000 soldiers and almost 105,000 air personnel.
The video proceeds: “With the West Coast stabilized, the Seattle invasion contained, the United States pivots into the next phase – sustained defense, overwhelming industrial mobilization, and the methodical dismantling of any remaining threat.”
The US then imposes a financial strain on its adversaries, a tactic Trump has mentioned previously.
The video notes: “Global sanctions obliterate the invader economic lifelines – even formally neutral nations freeze trade, expel diplomats, and join in coordinated cyber and financial strikes.
“In the enemy’s capital city, empty store shelves and rolling blackouts cause unrest – the war they thought would break America is now breaking them.”
