China’s military lays out technology road map to catch up with the US

But I thought the Chinese posters said they are already better than the U.S. military with all the weapons.
There was a talk by the Chinese military chief a while back when he acknowleded that China was not a match for the US.
 
Considering the modernization the US military is undergoing over the next decade its highly unlikely.
Agree it will take a long time for China to come close to US military hegemony, since the US is not staying idle/stagnant, the US military machine is still evolving and modernizing very fast , which is quite impressive given the US is already the world's preeminent military power and a matured developed country and so you will expect the US to grow and evolve slower , but it's not the case at all, which is quite impressive. Shows the country's fundamentals are really strong.

Not yet True.
Also, SInce they realized it They are already on way to make them soon.
So Be ready to read in few years or so to negate your current believes

A lot of people on PDF aren't recognizing the progress/modernization the US is about to undertake in the coming years. This is not the military focused on counter terror of the late 00's early '10s. This will be the largest buildup since Reagan. It's basically 1980 again.
 
Well this is bitter truth. You guys have to live with that.
Hahahahah, an Indian telling us about how junky our weapons are. First learn to make a decent rifle. Lololol. Delusional losers....
You forgot that, they will add some fancy suffix 5G
Yup like those phones and basestations you bought. It's just a label but you pay billions. Lolol
Yeah sounds like robbers are planning for a big heist.
Could be mate, it's better than getting milked by every single European annual. Squish squish squish, you know gau mata? Lol

Chinese tend not to brag, but acknowledge the reality. We are ahead in certain technologies and was even acknowledge by the Pentagon.
 
R&D for Military Technologies required lots and lots of money and that is what USA is lacking. USA couldn't even fund the maintenance and upkeeping of its warships and warplanes in service. That is why Trump is pressuring her allies to cough out more money for their defense.

So all these discussions are pretty useless until and when USA has the money.
With the US dollars fast losing its WRC status, it will be a long time.

Thumping one chest is only Trump way of talking.
USA has the best economy in the world.
We have the best military in the world.
We have the best technologies in the world.

cough cough :sarcastic: :sarcastic: :sarcastic:
 
Check out where the Chinese military was at a decade ago, look at where it is now, think about where it will be a decade in the future. CHINA SPEED.
This is the beauty and this is what is making Uncle Sam nervous. Yes Chinese are far behind but they are catching up quickly. Chinese should treat Indians as sand bag and stat testing and tweaking their equipment on them.
 
Some are better than the United States, some are as good as the United States, and some are worse.I think you just can't take the first two.
China is no where near US force projection. The world knows this and that is why it treats US with respect even if that can often be dressed up fear. You need to have some conflicts ~ actual fighting. This can easily be achieved by invading Eritrea, Ethopia etc under guise of bring "prosperity and freedom".

Yeah, the US ever has some bubbling terms like the SDI aka. Star Wars, Rods of God, Global Strike, Full Spectrum Dominance, Space Force, Battle Force 2045... but looking at what it has been actually developing in the last 10 years as well as the current state of nation, I don't believe it can do much within the next 10 years! What we see today is just a legacy of the many decade works earlier, over past half a century... but just don't think it has the needed resources incl. the human skills nowadays to repeat such past performances. Time will tell.

PS. Look at the problem-ridden Zumwalt, Ford class, F-35, EM Railgun, hypersonic missiles, Patriot in Saudi, etc.
