China’s weapons — Part 1

Posted by Matt in June 23rd, 2008

Despite successes in the last few decades, China’s armed forces are still rather backward, which is another incentive for increasing military spending. Its ground forces are relatively numerous, but it does not have enough modern military hardware; its army air defense system is weak, and its artillery is insufficiently mobile. The same is true of China’s air force. Most of its combat aircraft are copies of Soviet war planes of the 1950s. The number of modern aircraft is negligible. China’s airlift force is also weak. It does not have enough medium and heavy military transport aircraft.

Taiwan and China's Military Buildup: Part 4 of Election 08 and the Challenge of China
The U.S.-China relationship is complicated and is vital for both countries and the world. Where do Senators McCain and Obama stand on U.S.-China trade, security, environmental, and human rights issues? How important has policy toward China been in past elections and in 2008? These are the questions explored in a USC U.S.-China Institute documentary. Taiwan is routinely cited by Chinese as one of the issues most likely to produce conflict between the U.S. and China. The U.S. supplies weapons to Taiwans military, but the American government has firmly opposed any Taiwan declaration of independence. The U.S. calls on the officials on both sides of the strait to work collaboratively towards a peaceful and enduring resolution of Taiwans status. Since the end of U.S.-Taiwan relations, Taiwan...

Chinese Military Modernization U.S. Threat
CHAN: The Chinese military is modernizing so fast that the U.S. should be building its own new weapon systems to counter it—this what's being said in a draft report by the U.S. Secretary of State's International Security Advisory Board. We bring you this story based on an exclusive report from The Washington Times. STORY: This is the first time U.S. defense policy recommends building missile defenses specifically against China. The Chinese regime is strategizing to build forces that are capable of more than just retaking Taiwan. According to the draft report, China's major military objective is to, "counter U.S. presence and U.S. military capabilities in East Asia... through the acquisition of offensive capacities in critical functional areas that systematically exploit U.S....

Taiwan Releases Chinese Military Study
WONG: On Tuesday Taiwan's Ministry of Defense released new findings of exactly how much military equipment the CCP has in the Taiwan Strait. The Taiwanese government alleges that anti-satellite weapons, aircraft carriers and more are in place for a possible attack on the democratic island. But what's most concerning to Taiwan is that the shear amount of the munitions is much more than is actually needed for an invasion. CCP defense expenditures are almost 2-3 times larger than publicly released figures figured, which has people like Colonel Jianhua Gong worried. [Colonel Jianhua Gong, Taiwanese Ministry of Defense]: 2nd quote gender unknown "The CCP had made use of the Taiwan Strait issue to actively develop anti-satellite weapons, missiles, and aircraft carriers. The developed force...
