The US Navy this week has kicked off the largest military exercise since the Cold War. The exercise spans different time zones and involves a large number of vessels and the US Marine Corps. This logistically enormous undertaking is believed to be a warning to both China and Russia that the US can fight a global war on multiple fronts all at once.
Named Large Scale Exercise (LSE) 2021, it will see the US employ a strategy similar to that used in the Cold War, and even borrow some practices from WWII. It will continue on until August 16 and includes simultaneous exercises in 17 different time zones according to the U.S. Navy.
