china is continuing to increase its military strength without any noise. In a situation where china has already overtaken the US in the number of warships, experts have warned that china may surpass the US in the air force and army in the coming days. The US is the most powerful military in the world. Every year, the US allocates several lakh crores to strengthen its military. At the same time, like the US, china has been investing heavily in the military in the last few years. china is continuously investing to build a strong defense force. In the past 2015 - 2020 period, china has already overtaken the US in the navy, especially in the number of warships.
Meanwhile, Brigadier General Doug Wickert, a former commander in the US army, has said that china has the potential to overtake the US in terms of military strength by 2027. It is noteworthy that Brigadier General Doug Wickert served as the commander of the 412th Test Wing at Edwards air Force Base. China's number of fighter jets will surpass that of the US in a few years, not only in the army but also in the air force, Brigadier General Doug Wickert said. In this regard, he added, "China is modernizing its military at an unprecedented pace. This modernization work is underway to the point of surpassing the US." Like the navy, china is also growing rapidly in its air force. china is rapidly increasing the number of J-20 and J-31 fighter jets, which are powerful enough to compete with the US F-22 and F-35. If china increases the number of its fighter jets at this rate, it will have more fighter jets than the united states in a few years. China's strengthening of its air force to this extent may also cause other problems. In other words, experts warn that china can use its power to threaten and intimidate neighboring countries. There have also been increasing calls for the united states to take retaliatory action against China.The united states is also strengthening its alliance with countries in the Asian region to contain China's dominance. It is also increasing its military presence in the Asia-Pacific region. The united states has also increased its investment in advanced military technologies, including hypersonic missiles and stealth fighter jets.
