It is only a matter of time before China's plan to replace the United States as the world's preeminent military becomes reality, a top U.S. general warned, calling on the Washington and its allies to speed efforts to counter Beijing’s bid for dominance.
General John Hyten, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Washington’s second-most-senior military officer, called the rapid rise of the Chinese military “stunning.”
“The pace they're moving and the trajectory that they're on will surpass Russia and the United States if we don't do something to change it," he told the Defense Writers Group on Thursday, responding to a question from VOA.

Not really. It was a border skirmish. No declared war, and China pretty much moved troops back to 1959 border lines. No air support. And the Indians were ordered to not fire unless fired upon. Both sides saw limited action. Not considered a Chinese victory, as war was not declared, they cut off lines of communication for the Indian troops, and ambushed them. If there were to be a true war between China and India, then India would destroy a Chinese advance. The Chinese are not known for their fighting ability, while Indians excel at it.
Hi guy.
“The Biological War of 2020?”
Not yet.

“That was the one last year. The 1962 war war a serious conflict with 100K casualties, and was a pretty complete Chinese victory.”

Oh, look. FR has a new paid ChiComm troll to puke “China-is-Superman” propaganda.
Ha! It’ll only take a few well placed conventional weapons to bring China to it’s knees. Think dams.
We’re like two and four.
Correct, Space Force.... Semper Supra. Surprise!!
China is incapable of fighting a war outside it’s own borders and even if it could they’re not much of an army.
And further while they out number the US Navy in ships they posses no aircraft carriers other than a basically useless and troubled old Russian cast off.
I agree.
It is our job to do the best we can to make things better
here, but I agree that we must ultimately leave it in God’s
hands.
The Chinese have 1 Russian jump style Carrier, with another being built in China. They also have another under development as a catapult Carrier, with at least 2 more in the planning stages.
Gives them at least 5 coming online within 5-6 years.
They can mass produce fairly well and will have capacity to build as many as they wish.
They bought Biden off a long time ago. As to China? The whole f’ing country is falling apart- literally.
Buildings, bridges, major roadways and their ‘’ghost town’’ cities are literally crumbling and collapsing and killing and injuring thousands.
And it's because of the ravages of socialism, attended with all it's own dysfunction and brutality it's thousands of years of corrupt Chinese society and culture. Bribery is a way of business and life in China.
They couldn’t win a food fight, yet nobody challenged them when thy stole multiple islands in the South China Sea.
This ravaged China has big issues, but they will surpass the US economy in a few years.
Whether in sports or war, respect your enemies. They have better weapons than the US in important categories and we have little defenses for their anti ship hypersonic weapons. In the area of operation, they have their entire military at their disposal and we have only a portion of ours.
