    That's a rather ethnocentric view. China's missiles aren't going to be locked on targets in Africa or South America,

    The Chinese military has evolved by leaps and bounds since then. Only a fool would fail to recognize that.

    They have never demonstrated that in combat....their military is same as their knock off swiss watches..looks kind of real from far..but far from good close up

    Let's see how Mattis would react,
    he made some rhetoric lately in Japan and it's against the recent aggression of China.
    Perhaps what they have are utterly defendable.

    This isn't the same China that failed in Korea or Vietnam. They learn quickly and don't make the same mistake twice. Personally, I don't see China's army functioning as a global expeditionary force any time soon. However, China has become more assertive and something is driving that assertiveness. One could conclude that one of the driving forces is the modernization of their military.

    I get it, but based on my knowledge of Chinese quality controls, and lack of eye for detail. Also their inexperience, would prove decisive against say a battle hardened US or Russian Army.

    That might be true for civilian manufacturing processes, but for many countries, there's a higher level of quality control for military goods.

    China has satellites, too. It's easy to attack and destroy an enemy who has no clue where attacking force are located.

    Perhaps.... but their inexperience has no fix... the American military has been at war for the last 30 years none stop. The Russians too from Chechnya to Georgia to Syria ..

    The Chinese would be at a severe disadvantage as far as military readiness... and their technology has not been tested either.

    Care to respond to that?

    Words impress no one.

    Have a war put your theories to the test. Answer this while your at it. Will USA missile shields stop Chinese nukes?

    China knows better then to put itself into a direct war with either Russia or the US. And I was taking about a conventional war, not a Nuclear exchange. A full Nuclear exchange would put all of humanity back 2000 years.

    Why would China fight Russia.

    They are better allies than both with America.

    Well for one they had border skirmishes, and this was when they were both Communists. 2 countries with totally different cultures on each others borders, with one having Water, Land, Wood, and energy while the other having a lot of people will lead to a conflict down the road. Plus the Russians hate and distrust the Han.

    They dislike America much more than each other.

    That is a falsehood, Russians do not dislike Americans and Americans do not dislike Russians as much as both detest the Han Asian barbarians.

    China's spy satellites negate any advantage the US would have with its own spy satellites. It was easy for us to destroy Iraqi units, since we always knew where they were located. The Iraqis never knew where US units were located until they were fired upon.

    If China has any problems, it would be with their ability to manage logistics. I'm not convinced China could conduct sustained operations outside of China for an extended length of time. Note that China has been gaining experience through the number of troops it commits for UN Peace-Keeping Forces.
