US fought lengthy wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and even opened fronts on the side like in Libya and Syria to eliminate its enemies but it is not exhausted.
They need capable shipyards and a large skilled workforce to repair, maintain current fleets and build new ships, but now they lack both, which makes their naval might unsustainable in the future and China with both unrivalled capability is catching up at a lightening speed.everything you said is right...
but little disagreement at bold part, just visit US and you'll see how badly their infrastructure need reconstruction and repair.
back to back wars had a great effect on people's lives.
wars created fewer jobs lack of spending public education and health care.
infrastructure such as roads and public transit were lacking funds.
financed by debt those war spending cause higher interest rates either it is business borrowers or homeowners.
school infrastructure did not grow at the pace it is required.
they talk about China rising so rapidly is only because they are finding it hard to keep pace with it.
so yes, they are exhausted and they have to re-pay a huge debt besides short and long interest on war borrowings and it will impact their future war preparations and adventures anymore.
they really need to take a break from it and they know it very well. these confrontations with China will just be chest thumping on both sides.

UK lost its unrivalled naval might the same way US is losing its now, losing their industrial capability and large skilled workforce first.i don't think they will have problem in upgrading their infrastructure but the priorities are taking shape in a different way.
all of the above i said is what it seems they are more diverted towards.

Yes, but it has the unfortunate habit of losing wars.I pointed out the obvious in following post:
US is not entrenched in a war with Russia but making sure that Russia will suffer heavy losses in Ukraine and will not be in the position to fight another war in a long time. Contrary to comedic perceptions of some members and missile photo posters on PDF, American war-machine is present in all oceans and ready to fight a war if called upon.
On topic: China is providing sophisticated technologies to DPRK so US has warned that it will prepare both South Korea and Japan to deal with this threat.

US is a superpower in true sense and its warfighting capacity is unmatched.

Global Military Spending Reaches Record High
Despite economic uncertainty, global military spending has surged. Inflation, Russia's war on Ukraine and US efforts to outpace China are major factors.thewire.in
@Mirzali Khan
70% of global shipbuilding capacity is in China's hand. We will see how US is going to Change it.never compare an economy to another. they have their own good and bad, ups and downs.
i am convinced, if a country who does not give up on research and development, will not be easy to go down.
other thing is global reach, UK had global reach on its own by invading or economic lure with their presence which when gone they were rolled up.
US has it on the basis partnerships and reach all over the world. this thing does not go easy, it was a clever move by them, several powerful countries are under their umbrella. Europe in particular, a huge trading partner.
Yes, but it has the unfortuinate habit of losing wars.
By all measures the US was defeated in Afghanistan. Like a boxing match it is the final result that matters and even the US army accepted they were defeated.US was not fighting to colonize these countries but to dismantle regimes that they had deemed as a threat to American interests. US-led forces dismantled Osama regime in Afghanistan, Saddam regime in Iraq, Qaddafi regime in Libya, and ISIL regime across Iraq and Syria. This is how success is measured.
These battles have kept American forces in operational state and helped develop new tactics in the process.
I am not sure what constitute as success in your books. One has to look at the agenda of war that was fought and and success is measured on the basis of defeating opponents. US can tell its Public that those who are involved in 9/11 plot and conspiracy are eliminated, this was the agenda.
