介绍:
China has a 2.3 million strong army, almost a million more than the US. Figures from the Congressional Research Service suggest that China consistently spends 2% of its GDP on defense. Over the years that money has gone into modernizing its forces. China plans to increase its submarine fleet from 62 to as many as 78 by 2020 according to the US Department of Defense. It is also undergoing efforts to build an additional aircraft carrier, as they currently only have one: the Liaoning.
It seems for now that China does not have the strongest military for traditional warfare. But the 21st-century battlefield will not just be on land, sea and air, but in cyberspace as well. And in that area, China’s military may indeed have the upper hand.
