So you're admitting your J-20 & J-35 are sub standard Fighter Aircrafts or at any rate are over rated & no match for either the F-22 or the F-35 ? Good , that's a start.
All this pre supposes the US wants to co exist & share power with some other nation . When China can't share power or doesn't want an equal in Asia what makes you think the US would tolerate one in the world ? What was the cold war all about Xiao Pang ?
I don't think Great Helmsman 2.0 has that much time on his hands. If the internal situation within China doesn't force his hand thanks to Western sanctions , he'd anyway go in to "unify" Taiwan with the mainland.
Oh yes , we will. China isn't our existential threat. Paxtan & Bangladesh are . To sort them out we need to get China , the US , the EU & the Gulf Sheikhdoms along with Iran out of the way.
With the war in Ukraine & Chinese predatory business tactics , EU's economy is going down the drain. Whatever is left of it , internal divisions will take care of what with the massive legal & illegal immigration from Muslim nations they've experienced.
Whatever is left of the EU military power , Russia will handle after the current war in Ukraine reaches a Cease Fire for this is only the first installment. The next war between Russia & NATO will come soon over Ukraine once again after this brief interval. Russia will go down but we fully expect it to permanently damage EU along with it .
But for the final blow to the EU , the US needs to be taken down. That's where China comes in . Iran will in any case be taken care of by Israel & the US which leaves the Gulf Sheikhdoms out. The diminishing need for oil & gas given the many alternatives popping up will reduce their importance significantly .
That's the game plan & we'd see ALL those scenarios including DPRK vs Japan + RoK come true alongside of course China vs US + Taiwan + Japan + Australia + Philippines.
Nope. It was merely China did better because you had a head start of more than a decade over us. As I've remarked earlier , the only two countries which have benefited the most from rearranging their economic policies in the past 4 decades have been China & India with China doing so more than a decade before India with India being where China was in 2004 more or less.
