为什么二战不算？都是美国的海军为什么分离二战？既使二战后，ChatGPT 是这样说的：

 

1. 

Korean War (1950–1953)

 

 

• The U.S. Navy played a major role in blockades, amphibious landings (like at Incheon), shore bombardments, and carrier-based airstrikes.
• Naval forces supported U.N. troops throughout the war.

 

 

 

 

 

2. 

Vietnam War (1955–1975)

 

 

• Heavy U.S. naval involvement, especially:
  • Aircraft carriers launching airstrikes.
  • “Brown-water navy” (small patrol boats) fighting in rivers and coastal areas.
  • Operation Market Time: naval blockade to stop North Vietnamese supplies.
  • Gulf of Tonkin incident triggered wider U.S. involvement.
•  

 

 

 

 

 

3. 

Falklands War (1982)

 – 

Not a U.S. war, but relevant

 

 

• Although the U.S. was not a combatant, this war between the UK and Argentina was a rare post-WWII naval war and reminded the world of the importance of naval combat.

 

 

 

 

 

4. 

Persian Gulf Conflicts (1980s–2000s)

 

 

• Tanker War during Iran-Iraq War: U.S. Navy escorted oil tankers and fought Iranian forces (e.g., Operation Praying Mantis in 1988 – the largest U.S. naval battle since WWII).
• 1991 Gulf War: naval bombardments and Tomahawk cruise missile strikes.
• Iraq War (2003): naval support, launching airstrikes and missiles from ships.

 

 

 

 

 

5. 

Modern Conflicts

 

 

• Ongoing presence in South China Sea, Strait of Hormuz, etc., sometimes involving hostile encounters, but not full-scale wars.
• U.S. Navy continues to conduct freedom of navigation operations, deterrence patrols, and carrier strike missions globally.

 

 

 

 

 

Summary:

 

 

While the U.S. hasn’t fought a full-scale naval war like WWII since then, it has conducted significant naval combat operations in multiple wars and conflicts. The U.S. Navy remains one of the most active and globally deployed forces.
