Well now since we know China is shall we say less than forthcoming, perhaps the narrative around them is the same...

Maybe they exaggerate themselves to a gullible world. Since the Communists control everything, who would ever accuse the party of lying? No one. :unsure:

The media pushes the fake news constantly about how imposing the Chinese and Russian military is. All fake news bullshit. I just do not know for the life of me why they feel the need to build up a phony narrative about our enemies and play down our capabilities. They have an agenda, to be sure.

Case in point. The media played up how imposing the Russian fleet was a few years ago as their laughable version of a Carrier Strike Group left Severomorsk for "operations" off Syria. The so called fleet passed through the English Channel and the media was ecstatic at such a "show of force". The Brits barely batted an eye.

Why? Well everywhere the Russian carrier goes they bring along a few ocean going tugs in case they break down. :yum: That's right, the United States Navy's greatest fear from the Russian carrier is what they will have to do if the Russian carrier has a catastrophic failure that would require a rescue effort.

Again, the media are nothing but a bunch of lying assholes.

A naval war with either one of them would be over before it even gets going and they both know it. Three words. Virginia Class Submarines.

China's first aircraft carrier is a renovated russian aircraft "cruiser" built in 1985 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_aircraft_carrier_Liaoning


Their second version is a copy of the first: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_001A_aircraft_carrier


Displacement around: 55,000 tonnes
Nimitz class displacement: 102,000 long tons (114,000 short tons)


Not really seeing the threat. I mean it would suck if they managed to get a bunch of their army on our shores but then again if it's bad enough the world's largest army will certainly wake up.

At the end of the day the real threat for everyone is the nuclear missile. I don't trust our defences against a large barage.

I think China is also powerful country in terms of weapons and army but not powerful then Russia or America
China has a large army with no experience. These "boys" were raised as single child families, and are spoiled rotten brats.
Their weapons are reverse engineered from stolen information from the USA. Again they are unproven. For example they can not yet build a jet engine that can go beyond a 200 hrs with out failure. They have been able to rely on the Soviets for their top tier fighter jets.
Not any more how ever, as Putin is selling his best to India, not China. This is because the Chinese think Russia has old territory taken from them a century ago, and China wants it back.. Everyone on the globe should see by now China is a global threat, or at least think they are...
