Anyone else worried about China? It seems they're quickly catching up in both quality and quantity, and us having incompetent politicians doesn't help.

If you think American politicians are incompetent...

Someone threatening a sole hegemony in the world is always good.
Besides, they will never actually attack the US because China needs US to live. And it goes both ways, US economy hits the bricks if it were to lose China.
2 super powers not intent on pounding each other into dust or even boycott one another is a dream come true, if you ask me.
>Thousands of modernized T-55s with 9К11s
>Hundreds of migs with chinese engines
>Copypasted Su-27s with chinese engines
>Destroyers with soviet missiles
>Nuclear deterrence of 1970s USSR
>No long range aviation
>No nuclear submarines
>No IADS network
>No early warning system
>No united command because general staff would rival party in power
>No combat experience
>2 million zergs and dreams of global domination
I wouldn't lose a sleep over it.

They do have one thing over us
>complete disregard for the value of life, both human and animal
It's more effective for a fighting machine at the lower echelons
>>35107669
Uh huh. I wonder how many little emperors this ruthless fighting machine can lose before their childless parents -- and the parents *afraid* of being childless -- rip the country completely fucking apart.
>>35107675
Far more than we can
>>35107682
LOL.
There's no more wars between powerful nations. All wars are big vs. small, or small vs. small. Big vs. big gets done through economics
>>35107599
It's not the early 2000s anymore.
Every single thing you just listed doesn't hold true anymore, except for the last one.
Not really. What is China going to do? Attack us? They're just as obsessed with their economy as we are. The threat of economic collapse and massive loss of human life is enough to deter both sides from doing anything. Relax.
>>35107675
>Chinese parents worried about losing children
You clearly don't understand their culture
>>35107472
nice try, xi peng

Thucydides trap
Its not if, it's when.
I just hope to God that Russia doesnt join them.
>>35107472
Quantity? No, we crash more ships than they can turn out.
Quality? HELL no.
Logistics and force projections? Not even a factor for discussion.
>>35107472
Say it with me. M.A.D.
As long as nukes exists, countries that own them will never go to war with other countries that own them. It's so fucking simple, why do retards like you who start threads like this never get this concept?
>>35107472
They've got the manpower and manufacturing to hold out against us but not enough force projection to invade anything important.

>As long as nukes exists
*As long as effective nuke counters don't exist
FTFY ;^)

Explain the recent India-China showdown.

Which they don't.
