North Korea SURROUNDED: US warships, bombers,
missiles and 80,000 soldiers READY. NORTH Korea is nearly totally surrounded by
a wall of US warships, bombers and missiles with more than 80,000 soldiers on alert as
Donald Trump heads for Asia. The US President is jetting into the Pacific
this week for a whistle-stop tour of the nations surrounding North Korea. Trump will be popping in for one-on-one meetings
with the leaders of China, South Korea and Japan with Kim Jong-uns nukes right
at the top of the agenda.
At his back with be a the worlds biggest
military war machine poised to strike should the crisis go south with North Korea. He visited the US Pacific Command just days
ago who will oversee every single vessel, plane and soldier sitting in a ring of steel
around Kim. Daily Star Online can now reveal the monstrous
arsenal at Trumps fingertips as he faces down North Korea. US forces have been packing into the region
as the tensions are set to snap with North Korea over its quest for ICBM.
Three US aircraft carriers are currently operating
in the Pacific in an colossal flex of Trumps military biceps. USS Nimitz, USS Theodore Roosevelt and USS
Ronald Reagan became the first trio of carriers to operate in the region for a decade. Each of these three warship bring with it
a fully stocked wing of up to 90 warplanes and choppers. While steaming alongside are their escorts
of destroyers and submarines making up the USs mighty carrier strike groups.
The USs 7th Fleet has its headquarters
in Japan and brings up to 70 ships and submarines under its command, including 14
missile-packed destroyers. Just this week, a squadron of 12 F-35 fighter
planes screamed over the Pacific and landed at their new base in Japan. More than 100 bases are scattered across the
islands, with around 50,000 servicemen stationed there. Meanwhile, right on Kims doorstep there
are more than 30,000 US soldiers stations in bases in South Korea.
More than 300 tanks are stationed just a stones
throw from North Korea, along with armoured vehicles and artillery. And then there is the thorn in Kim's side
Guam, which he regularly threatened to launch missiles at. The island paradise hides the USs fleet
of nuclear-capable B-2 bombers, as well bunk busting B-1B Lancers. Colossal B-52 Stratofortress warplanes also
can bee seen rolling around Andersen Air Force Base.
Each of these is capable of carrying 70,000
lbs of bombs and 20 cruise missiles. Tensions have reached new heights as Trump
makes his first ever visit to Asia with Kim threatening to fire the Juche Bird. The missile would fly a live nuclear warhead
into the heart of the Pacific and explode, a provocation that could start World War 3. Trump will be in Asia until November 13 finishing
his tour with trips to Vietnam and the Philippines..
