U.S. media ¡°Military Observatory¡± on October 25, 2025 that U.S. Defense Secretary Hergezes had ordered that the U.S. Navy¡¯s latest aircraft carrier ¡°Ford¡± had been deployed to South American waters, preparing to participate in military operations against Venezuela. This is seen by many media as an extremely dangerous war signal, which is the United States¡¯ concentration of forces before taking military action.

According to the comparison of force of the two sides, the U.S. Navy does not need to invest too much force, an aircraft carrier fighter enough to cope with the war situation, so once the "Ford" aircraft carrier is in place, the U.S. military is likely to take action.

Now the determination of the United States is very clear, it wants to fight, and combat readiness is also underway. According to the American media "National Security Magazine", the "Ford" aircraft carrier fighter will give Venezuela five consecutive strikes, that is, five ways to attack Venezuela.

The first strike was the F-35C fighter jet, which was commented by the US media as a "silent reconnaissance aircraft." US media said that the F-35C is powerful. In combat, there is not only stealth advantage, but also situational awareness advantage. It can play a considerable role in combat. It can ambush opponent's fighter jets or sneak into the air defense fire network to attack ground targets.

The second strike, the F/A-18E/F fighter, the US media commented on "heavy class fighter", can carry a variety of ammunition, perform different tasks, the US media even quoted a statement within the U.S. military: it can perform air-to-air attacks in the morning, and can break the door in the evening.

The third hit, escort vessels, or say nuclear submarine launched "war-ax" cruise missiles. The escort vessels in the aircraft carrier battle group, not only the defense, but also have a certain attack ability, especially nuclear submarines, can launch "war-ax" cruise missiles, hit land targets. Water vessels also have the ability to launch "war-ax" cruise missiles, can also use artillery to bomb land targets.

The fourth strike, the EA-18G electronic warfare attack aircraft, was commented by the US media as: Let the air defense system "blink". As an electronic warfare attack aircraft, the EA-18G can not only listen to enemy radars, interfere and deceive, but also carry out soft and hard attacks on radar systems, posing a considerable threat to modern air defense systems.

Fifth, underwater Virginia-class attack submarines.The aircraft carrier battle group is typically equipped with a Virginia-class attack submarine that performs as one of the world¡¯s most advanced attack nuclear submarines.

So, the U.S. Navy is really going to hit Venezuela in five rows?

The US media's discussion of the F-35C fighter jet is a complete mistake. Everyone knows that the USS Ford is the first ship of the U.S. Ford-class aircraft carrier and the only ship of this class to serve. However, few people have noticed that it is an imperfect aircraft carrier and has so far been unable to carry the F-35C fighter jet, just because its electromagnetic ejection system cannot hit the F-35C fighter jet. However, this point was ignored by the American media, and they still wanted to include it among the carrier-based aircraft of the USS Ford so as not to affect military operations against Venezuela.

The performance of the F/A-18E/F fighter jet is also quite good, but compared with the Su-30MK2 fighter jet of the Venezuelan Air Force, it does not have any overwhelming advantage. Both sides are fourth-generation aircraft, so there is no absolute advantage.

The firepower of the escort ship across the shore is a bit exaggerated, and the number of "Tomahawk" cruise missiles that can be carried is insufficient, making it difficult to play a big role. The proportion of EA-18G electronic warfare attack aircraft in aircraft carrier-based aircraft is limited, and it is impossible to clearly judge how much threat it can pose to Venezuela. Virginia-class attack submarines are of little use except launching "Tomahawk" cruise missiles. The opponent does not have a strong naval force. In submarine ground operations, after all "Tomahawk" cruise missiles are fired, they are useless.

Now the United States is shouting and killing Venezuela. The American media CNN quoted three American officials as saying that US President Trump is considering a plan to launch a strike against targets in Venezuela, only calling the targets "cocaine facilities and drug trafficking routes", but he has not yet decided whether to advance these plans. This is where the United States is looking for excuses for its own war acts. How can the United States distinguish the so-called "facilities and routes" from Venezuela's military facilities? Or simply blame Venezuela's military facilities and even the presidential palace, which meets the definition of such goals. These are the "war techniques" used by the United States before.

A large-scale buildup of U.S. troops in the Caribbean has begun, and in the name of "combating drug trafficking", it has attacked ships at sea. It is known that 10 ships have been attacked, and 43 people have been confirmed to have been killed. Trump even authorized the CIA to carry out secret operations in Venezuela in an attempt to launch a coup. All this makes Trump's statement that "diplomatic means are not excluded" a joke.

The reasons for the U.S. war are ridiculous, linking Venezuela to drug trafficking, official U.S. reports, and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime did not list Venezuela as a cocaine producer.

Now it has begun to speculate that the time for the United States to launch a military operation, but we must also see another situation, the United States is verbally quite tough, has interrupted the dialogue with Venezuela, but the United States in military action is quite slow. At present the United States gathered in the area around Venezuela is very limited, the total force is 10,000, mainly for the naval force, except for the special forces, no concentrated ground-to-face combat units, obviously not like launching a direct invasion.

Now to assert that the United States is going to war, further evidence may be needed.
