U.S. Revives WWII Airfields to Counter China with 'Scatter and Survive' Tactics
Oct 20, 2024, 12:40 PM
The United States is reviving and upgrading remote World War II airfields in the Pacific to counter the threat posed by China. This initiative, known as 'Scatter and Survive,' aims to prevent China from crippling U.S. air power by dispersing aircraft across various airfields, including full-fledged allied bases, lone airstrips on remote islands, and civilian airport runways. The strategy is designed to deny China 'big, juicy' targets, making it more difficult for Chinese missile barrages to inflict significant damage.
