-PLA is certain to reduce to 1.5 million by 2020, with ratio of Army (inc. 2nd Art.): Navy : Airforce as 5:3:2.
They would all be modernised force.
(me thinks by 2020 China would have enough budget to maintain a 1.5 million completely modernised force, but they will have large reserves and older weapons ready if necessary )
-ASBM is not rumoured but actual fact
-Chinese leaderships are not as soft as their public impression.
-First carrier has started construction (i think he meant indigenous not varyag because he used the word built)
-It would be conventional powered and use ski jump, to the disappointment of some fans.
-Ray based and mid course anti-ballistic missile weapons in advanced stage of development
Others:
