China should build the most powerful navy to unify

ming361

A far more powerful fleet than any other country in the south and west pacific is needed for China.if we got this ,let alone the tiny Taiwan,INDIA AUSTRALIA,JAPAN,U.S.,and the southeast aisa counties will be within our striking range.at that time,Taiwan will obey us like a little baby,at least,it will behave himself.
As for the concrete plan of the fleet construction,personally, i think that it must include at least 2 airfighters carriers and 12 new cruisers ,12 destroyers,20 escorters and 4  nuclear submarines.it is possible for us to  build in 10 or 15 years,then,we are likely to defeat any other fleet around us in the middle distance sea .in terms of the
the power of the PLA now,we can probably affirm the chinese ocean dream will come true till thenhout any exggeration.
we got right to defense our long enough coastline and vast water range,dont we.

Your vision is good, and if China is prepared to spend for each Carrier 5 billions US per ship, 7 billion to outfit the carrier and 4 billion each year to operate "Good Idea". Then of course you have the suport vessels total about 25 Billion annual to operate. (Build cost will depend on what assortment of ships you want).

Currently ONLY the USA has Carriers, although Russia and Britain are discussing building their own carriers.

GO FOR IT !

i promise u countries like KOREA THILAND JAPAN AND INDIA all have their own  carriers ,so probobaly,we can afford it in terms of it.
you know,it cost sth if  u wanna be powerful,really.and also the decision can make benefit to.i mean the operation to build carriers can protect our property in the sea.

It's all very well to say that China can build em, but the art of operating them takes a lot longer to learn. Remember that the USN has had over 60 years operational experience with carriers. I do believe that CHina can build a very powerful naval fleet and fairly quickly, but what for? There are always reports in the news here about Chinas peaceful goals. If a countrys goals are peaceful, why build a large military? Kinda doesn't make sence to me but there ya go, I'm but one man with one opinion!
Peace y'all!

You are mistaken my friend. None of the mentioned countries have any carriers.

Dear Ming,

You must be another one of those toy soldier collectors. Line them all up on the garage bench and move them along , knock the enemies over ! Good fun for the week-end . In reality it is much simpler. China will always be a " defender " unlike the crusading offenders who need to project power to every corner of the globe. China's needs and requirements are much more modest. The Mainland is the natural unsinkable aircraft carrier. China needs to fight smart, not stupid. To squander truckfuls of money on aircraft carriers ( which is an antiquated floating platform for offence ) is to play into enemies' hands. The first thing our enemies wish on us is to bankrupt us, then we would be reduced to a huge army of peasants carrying spades and shovels to war. Just what the Yanks want to see.

The immobilization of communication is the priority. Satellite hunters and killers is what we must concentrate on. If you switch off the lights, the Yankees will fold right away. They are so spoilt and pampered the GIs can't fight without the ice-cream vans callling at regular intervals.

I can go on for a while but I will spare you the boring details. China must arm herself wisely and not get caught up with the lure of the glittering toys for boys like aircraft carriers or a deep water navy.
