              If anything this underscores how much more of a military culture ROK has than Japan, South Korea has something like 50 million people compared to 125 million in japan, a "pacifist" culture ingrained over nearly century is not something that be changed in a few decades, at this point this is who the japanese are and similalrly the ROK military culture implies who they are as well

                Global Firepower has SK at 6 and Japan at 8

                But the disparity is a lot greater than this, a typical South Korean soldier completely mogs anything Japan has, as a data point SK has something like 100,000+ special operations soldiers that are constantly conducting live operations globally, Japan does not have a special operations unit in the sense of the US/SK or even NATO

    I think it maybe slightly misleading when you have US @ 90 and China @ 68.

    In pure numbers, US has raw advantage, but the utilities are split across various continents.

    European theatre cant support Pacific theatre, we have also split off parts into middle east/Africa as well.

    If there's only 1 front for US/China, the match will be much closer imo since China only has 1 front to fight thus can focus 100% of their military there. Where as US can only focus maybe ~60-80%.

    So a 90 pts x 80% = 72 for US vs 68 from China.

    Its not a comfortable lead at all

    • 1 year ago
      Anonymous

      It's more comfortable when you add Japan and Australia to the mix. South Korea can provide deterrence at best since they'll never participate in a large engagement against the Chinese unless it's through the North Korean border.

      Japan and Australia can play with the US though, minimally providing logistical support in the region, but also men and arms if needed.
