How long will take chinese military to surpass russian military? My bet is 10 years not regarding nukes.

I think it's already surpassing the Russian military.
>>33890129
It surpassed Russia in 2008.

Many people on this board say china is a paper tiger but in reality they are a force to reckon with, they are not like the us or the russian counterparts.
They don't like to brag about their new tacticool shit countionusly instead they do it quiet and like they did with their economy they are learning from everyone. That's why we don't know shit aboout them.

are you serious?
>nuclear deterrence comparable to 1970s USSR
If that's true they have more than enough firepower, I believe they have less and its more than enough
>>33890129
China have a working Navy
Russia don't
>>33890451
Russia has no chance. The Chinese People's Liberation Army could conquer Moscow in 6 months.

Looks like they use the same material to build their real tanks as their RC model ones
>>33890724
why does Russia need a offensive navy?
>>33890780
Heh, I get it.

Their entire navy and missile arsenal consists of outdated Russian imports. Here, educate thyself:

China's only real advantage over Russia is the sheer scale and speed of their shipbuilding industry, but having large navy is justified for China.
The main vector of their expansion for the next 25+ years is Southeast Asia.
90% of their trade relies on seas and oceans
75% of their foreign supplies and strategic raw materials come from seas and oceans
To secure all that, an ocean fleet is needed
The main vector of Russian navy for the next 25+ years is defense and deterrence. Protecting the coast. Disrupting hostile amphibious operations. Ensuring strategic deployment of SSBN in the blue water. The main Russian ships for the next 25+ years are corvettes/frigates, diesel subs, attack subs, SSBN/SLBMS. Everything else is vanity.

Are you serious? The chinks would get annihilated trying to cross the massive eastern Russian wasteland trying to get to Moscow.
