Please study current US capabilities. China has one aircraft carrier. We have over twenty. Our tanks are virtually indestructible. We have ships that can shoot down ballistic missiles. We have a strong mix of 4th and 5th generation fighter aircraft. Our military helicopters are very powerful. Our Army and Marine Corps are full of combat veterans, whereas China hasn’t really fought a war since 1953.
Don’t let facts about our military get in the way of sheer panic.
dontcha know we couldn’t defeat Brasil right now. /s
I have several Chinese firearms, craftsmanship is spotty, same with ammo, Soviet bloc stuff too.
I would not want to me on the wrong end of it but we have superior firepower.
Actually, we have 11 carriers deploying just under 1000 aircraft.
Um, about that. Your info is a bit out of date.
China has two carriers in the water, with the second on sea trials.
Our tanks have been destroyed quite handily in Iraq (the ones we left there) and in Yemen (the ones we sold the Saudis) - at the same type of missile the Russians and Chinese sell in large quantities on the world market. The US Army has an emergency order in for Trophy anti-missile systems in to Rafael of Israel to protect some of our tanks.
Our ABM ships are nice but our Navy took CIWS off many of them. The Navy is currently desperately raiding museums and warehouses to put CIWS systems back on.
China’s strategy in the air is to kill the AWACS from long range then when our birds fire up their radar to compensate, swarm them with radar homing missiles fired in the hundreds by giant swarms of cheap missile hauler fighters. We did not and do not have enough advanced airframes to counter this.
Our military helicopters may be powerful, but the Chinese field Russian designs and as has been demonstrated in recent fights, we didn’t armor ours enough whereas the Russian-design-family birds shrug off SAMs and even ATGMs (visible third party proof of this is freely available on YouTube).
“China hasn’t fought a war since 1953” isn’t exactly true either. Among other things, you’re forgetting the long running Sino-Soviet border wars, their active if covert participation in Vietnam, the ongoing action in Xinjiang (1960-present) which has more than a little resemblance to our recent ‘fun’ in the Sandbox... They’ve not been sitting at home playing mahjong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_People%27s_Republic_of_China
We don't have 20 aircraft carriers. CVN is the current designation for a nuclear powered aircraft carrier.
Please study current US naval forces.
Your credibility just went out the window.

And one more question:
What the hell is China going to gain from it?
You’re wasting your air on these guys.
They relish the idea of America being weak and defeated. It gives them something else to bitch about.
The idea of the US being the superior military power, in all areas, does not suit their bias.
Even though the US, if it was found necessary, could defeat China with conventional forces easily. Easily.
And once the threshold of nukes is crossed it it NO CONTEST.
Our stuff actually works.
