If you watch Chinese movies, it is clear that Chinese people can fly too.

Any large ship can be seen from space. Against a sophisticated enemy theirs and ours are dead meat. They are formidable weapons in a non nuclear war. In an all out war they all die within hours. They can launch their weapons if used quickly. They can launch their aircraft if used quickly. The aircraft will have no place to land. The ship will be a smoking ruin or at the bottom of the sea when they return. All out war is quick and deadly.

Given the success of Chinese hacking and honeypot operations in South Korea, Japan, and the US I have no doubt that the PLA will be able to field a system similar to the SPY1-D.
Sadly, we've crippled our successor, the Zumwalt Class. Hopefully we will field enough Flight III Arliegh Burke destroyers with the new An/SPY-6 radar. I just hope we have new computers and networks with faster and more capable upgrades/replacements to the 40 year old Aegis system.
