[font="Open Sans", sans-serif][i]The revamping will see the Marines trade in their tanks, artillery, and even some F-35s in return for long-range missiles, unmanned boats and anti-ship weapons as they plan to reorient from essentially a second land army to concentrate on amphibious operations in the Asia-Pacific.[/i][/font]

The Marines would systematically isolate, bombard, and overrun China’s network of artificial islands in the South China Sea, and then set up air defense and anti-ship batteries to make the space around them hostile to Chinese forces. This would restrict the Chinese Navy’s and Air Force’s room to maneuver, pushing them out into the open water—where the U.S. Navy would take them on."[/i][/font]
