Go Uncle Sam. God, he's good.
Never underestimate the Chinese....
Among the great traditions of the Chinese army: Half the soldiers don’t really exist, so their officers can collect their pay.
This caused a lot of difficulty when they had to fight full-strength Japanese regiments.
Well, I’m getting the idea that nowadays the U.S.military spends 40% of its time being educated about diversity.
China has 100,000,000 more men than women.
They have to give them something to do.
Oh, I’m not really proud of our army’s standards either. They say that 60% of college recruits into the People’s Republic Army in China fail the physical do to weight or poor eyesight, so they pretty much are on par with us. Our army has gays and tattooed gang-bangers so I’m real proud. But at least we have real equipment, and we didn ‘t buy a used aircraft carrier from Ukraine.
Don’t underestimate the power of good morale. Xerxes did this at Thermopylae in the battle with King Leonidas and it cost him dearly.
“Spider tanks”?
Nobody said nothin’ ‘bout no dang spider tanks!
Does it shoot string out its behind like Joy Behar?
As compared to our modern military who spends 40% of their time these days dealing with LGBT sensitivity training....
All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near. Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him. …Still required reading in the PLA, IINM.

In 79’ the Chinese went in to Viet Nam to ‘teach them a lesson.” Fighting was ended at a standstill. Truth is the Chinese got their butt kicked.
A lot has changed since I served....
Spider tank spider tank doing whatever a Spider tank does.
It’s not like out military doesn’t waste massive amounts of time on hexual harassment, racial equality and other PC training.
Spider tank can beat the crap out of the Batmobile!
Ping for your interest.
Even the Antichrist will fear this army.
If there were 200 million troops fielding slingshots, you still have to deal with one helluva problem.
