Top New Global Facilities Poised to Reshape the Balance of Power
In a rapidly evolving geopolitical landscape, major world powers are significantly expanding their military footprints through the development of strategic facilities across key global regions.
From the Red Sea to the Pacific, newly constructed bases and command centers are emerging as focal points of military strategy.
Russia’s military base in Sudan
The Sudanese Foreign Ministry earlier confirmed that Russia is building a military base in the East African nation near the Red Sea.
The base is expected to allow Russia to secure its presence on a key shipping route and increase its assertiveness in Africa.
India’s island military buildup
New Delhi is creating military infrastructure in its Andaman and Nicobar Islands amid concerns over what India sees as China’s 'suspicious' activities in the Pacific.
Analysts say that developing strategic infrastructure such as naval air stations, ports and related infrastructure aims to fortify the Indian presence in the region.
US Andersen Air Force Base on Guam
New facilities are being built in the Pacific to deploy advanced strategic bombers, such as the B-21 Raider, that could be used for operations amid the US’ tensions with China and North Korea.
The goal is to strengthen America’s Pacific posture and improve responsiveness of US air forces.
The People’s Liberation Army is reportedly constructing a new huge command center in the capital Beijing that is expected to be at least 10 times larger than the US Pentagon.
Western intelligence agencies fear that the construction could mean that China is preparing for a large-scale or even nuclear war.
Australia’s maintenance hub
The Canberra government plans to pump $127 million over three years to upgrade facilities at the Henderson shipyard near Perth, saying that will become the maintenance hub for its nuclear-powered submarine fleet within the AUKUS alliance that Australia clinched with the US and Britain.
