The US military is stockpiling supplies in Australia in anticipation of a potential conflict with China over Taiwan. The Talisman Sabre exercises between US and Australian troops were used to establish new stockpiles of military equipment in Australia. The US is concerned about its logistics network in the Pacific and is working to spread its military logistics hubs across the region. There are concerns about vulnerabilities in potential conflict scenarios and the need for more focus and investment in Pacific bases and logistics. Additionally, the US military is shifting towards a "just in case" logistics approach, moving away from the previous "just in time" model.
