China Kuznetsov aircraft carrier conversion process smoothly

British “Daily Mail” on June 12 article, the original question: China’s rise has been unstoppable for the ruler of the world?

Ikea in Dalian, China is undoubtedly a milestone in Western commercial tentacles, but any one out of shop customers will be surprised era of change: a 60,000-ton aircraft carrier docked at the shop on the port size is almost the only active UK’s “excellent” three times the carrier. Obviously, this is the first time unequivocally that China to deploy military forces in the ocean.

Indeed, we wake up tomorrow morning will not find in Chinese fighters circled overhead. U.S. military is still the Chinese to shame. The United States has 11 carrier battle groups, China is also building the first one, even the technical level of China’s own admission 20 years behind the United States. Even so, since the 1990s, China started in the western Pacific to the United States to fight back. 100 years later, when historians review the rise of China as a world power process, the carrier is perhaps the turning point.

The world has never been such a large diversion of sudden wealth, but also the strength of tilt from west to east.

China’s economy every year by 10% annually, spending has quadrupled since 1996, and in the last 10 years to grow faster. Beyond traditional war is not that China focus on cyber warfare and space warfare capabilities with the United States pulled away in order to quickly integrate the U.S. military forces to win the digital hub. In contrast the West, the economic recovery faltering, all the way down military spending. U.S. may pay money from the August bill. British military budget may be decreased by 24% in 2014, the Royal Navy’s two new aircraft carriers may have hard to find a trace.
