China has a very long way to go before she can bring it to anybody.. let alone the US, she has 1 aircraft carrier for god sake, the US & NATO which would be the case should China make such a brave move, combined have 22 Aircraft carriers, and many thousands of navel vessels,
What about Aircraft? well the US & NATO have over 40.000 aircraft to Chinas 5,176 inferior aircraft
Lets not get to carried away such a move would be suicide
Even with Russia allied to China, that only makes 2 aircraft carriers & 8.000 aircraft
Nothing to worry about, its not over confidence its common sense

It's so funny to read the yanks slamming the Chinese Military and Russian/Soviet equipment. How quick you forget that in every war you have fought since 1945 (you've lost all of them) it has been Soviet/Russian equipment that has sent your useless army back in boxes, and the Chinese Army that sent you packing from both Korea and Vietnam.

Germany is taking over Europe without firing a shot. They are doing in peacetime what Hitler could not do with a world war.
I still feel war is unlikely with China however it would be a good cover for the global economic meltdown and rebooting of the fiat monetary system... You know everyone would have to sacrifice becuase of the war... cough puke,,

Last time I checked, Russia is relying on China and France (as well as almost every other country) to even have a shot at having some kind of military equipment that works...

And do I seriously need to go on about how much money time and effort have gone into China trying to get their hands on US technology for DECADES?

We did not lose those wars because of inferior equipment or capabilities. We never lost on the battlefield. We lost because they were unjust wars that did not have the peoples support and thus the politicians tried to fight limited wars to appease the lack of support and tied the hands of the generals to wage full scale war to win like in WWII.
Its the same thing in Iraq and Afghanistan. In WWII If the enemy tried to hide out in a church that church was leveled unlike now where the enemy takes refuge in mosques because they know it will not get leveled. It's ridiculous which is why we should not be in any war unless we are directly attacked or threatened. To bad out politicians are rogue and the American people as a whole do not have the knowledge or will to remove them.

You see, this is the sort of arrogance unique to Americans. Newsflash: Russian equipment sends your army home in boxes EVERY SINGLE WEEK. They take down your black hawk and chinook helicopters with such ease it is almost laughable, they knock out your tanks and humvees without much effort either.

You mean like the way US air force pilots get suffocated by their own planes?

They don't need to, since they manufacture most of the electronics in your technology I doubt they would need to spend any money stealing it when you give it to them along with lots of money.

Just curious...all aircraft etc...how would the US fair against a nuclear attack vs China AND Russia? Or better yet, a ground war in Iran hand to hand with China and Russia vs the US?

Its actually quite comedic that you talk of arrogance, but then follow up with how awesome you are...but to be honest, like most of the uneducated under-performing countries out there, you continue to ignore the facts. If Russia...or even China for that matter where so "great" than why, please tell, are neither the leading power in the world?
Did you even READ those articles? Just because you SAY that its not true...doesn't make it so.
I have to say that all the death and distruction, all the wars, everything wrong with the world...that is being blamed on Politicians and TPTB...is no one's fault but our own.
The US is sticking its nose where it does not belong, creating and controlling wars around the world...but if the human race actually woke up long enough from reading the headlines of what Lindsay Lohan did over the weekend and actually focused on what they could do to change the course of human history...the world has gone to hell...but lets face it...we sure didn't do anything to stop it. So by my accounts, we are just as guilty.

I wouldn't say we're underperforming, since it is us who manufacture a great deal of your military equipment for you, like your railgun. As a nation, the US is almost entirely inept at every single thing.
