Forbes on China Surpassing U.S. Naval Fleet Size

[Dogmeat1950]

"Forbes" really... lol Military know all now lol? U.S Navy is the largest in the world and most Advance... don't need more ships when we have BETTER SHIPS!

funny Congress wants to Blueprints to U.S Navy warship specs... then it gets leaked... I really don't trust Congress HELL Congress just said last week that PIZZA....Yes Pizza... is a vegetable..WTF people.....wake up people.

[prjerry7]

ju hintao, chinas main man, went to congress a few months ago and asked our nations to be allied superpowers, meanwhile congress dissed him by bashing chinas human rights record.

almost 75% of chinas economy is built on us consumption, china has also helped sustain our $ as the worlds #1 reserve.

Recently chinese officcials stated that china has no plan to make a global military network like USA but rather a domestic defence machine, their military expenditure has slown.

[kingbaker1000]

are ships are bigger & better

[brd1243]

who ever control arabic gulf oil ,will control the world.

[Keat547595]

If you are rich in people, resources, land, history and treasures...what would you do to PROTECT them ?? China has all these and many more. Over their history, who has invaded and occupied their land ?? When she was once branded "Weak men of Asia" and "Dogs and Chinese not allowed", many people were silent. Now that she is strong and rich, why are people suddenly so fearful of her ?? fdoca is right...Make friends not enemies.

[assmonkeyification]

This is all bullshit. Think about it. If the U.S. did not have an enemy, there would be no need for 350 billion annual military budget. I'm suspicious if China is nothing more than a false boogeyman conjoured up by certain powers to have an excuse to exist. Why would China invest billions of dollars into a country they didn't believe in and plan to destroy. Does that make any fuckin sense?

[apresesco]

US Debt is really 53 Trillion.

[prjerry7]

@apresesco private debt but private debt dies with its owners, national debt is arownd 100% of our gdp but it was MUCH higher in 1949

[prjerry7]

@apresesco private debt but private debt dies with the owner, we have always had humongous private debt.

Also, our public debt was much larger in 1949 when compared to gdp.

[Mr2505federal]

Really well way to freakin go to all the Congressman and Senators that supported selling off all these US jobs to China! I would use the term traitors but that seems lame compared to what you have all done to this country! We all know what we do with Traitors right and since you all love China more than your own country then pack your bags and live there! Gee is there any bigger National security issue out there that is bigger than Americans with Jobs and America owning their own economy?

[Norwegian733]

That politician is dumb. Its not about the numbers. Its about their cababillity.

Btw, most of the chinese ships are old and worthless.

[TheSonofadidly]

@Norwegian733 wow u sound like an expert, why u even care? u got brainwashed by usa propaganda? u got ganraped by chinese?

why the hate, dumbass.

[Norwegian733]

@TheSonofadidly Brainwashed? And you`re from China? Haha! That would have been ironic.

No; its a fact that most of the chinese fleet are old and worthless rubbish. If you cant take it, then screw you.

[TheSonofadidly]

@Norwegian733 ghehe im not from china, we practicly neighbours. go kiss some yankee ass loserboy.

[Norwegian733]

@TheSonofadidly The US and Norway are allied. So I`m not kissing up to the US, but stand beside them.

You cant be proud of your country as you wont say where you`re from.

Russian loser maybe?

About the naval fleet again, cocksucker... Am I wrong that most of the chinese fleet is old shitty and worthless?

If you mean that asshole, give me some proof. I KNOW I`m right.

So go and give some chinaman a blowjob. You both need that I guess.

[TheSonofadidly]

@Norwegian733 Rofl im german asshole.

and dont that give me that bullshit ''we stand beside them''. usa just uses other countries for their own personal agenda, enough said.

AND YES UR POROBABLY WRONG ABOUT THE CHINESE FLEET, U DONT HAVE A CLUE WHAT THEY ARE BUILDING (COPPYING) THERE (NEITHER DO I) AND IF IM WRONG, THEN SHOW ME.

retard

[Norwegian733]

@TheSonofadidly Fucking Kraut! All uses everybody else for their own benefit. So do Germany and China.

I guess we in Norway like americans more than you germans after WW2... thats why we are allied, remember?

No, I`m not wrong. China cant hide their navy unless they have ships eyes cant see. We know how excactly how many they have, their size, etc. We dont know everyting about their capabilities. But we do know that most of them are old and useless today.

[nagamora]

a nation could not topple another as the world super power without a war .that is a Historical fact .

[redwhitedude]

But the chinese ships are not as good as the american ships.

[edwardtang1977]

China just completed 200+ fast attack stealth missile ships called the Type 022

[redwhitedude]

Technologically China is behind so they are just going for quantity as far as US is concerned. Most of the vessels are terribly out of date. Crappy subs, and ships.

[afarooq3]

Well, if the US wants to weaken china, they should start a simliar war like the afghan vs ussr war, the best fighters that roam this planet are none other than teh afghans, no super power has been able to conquer them....outsource your war just like everything else in american is outsourced, jobs, manufacturing etc etc.....

[enchilada01]

@afarooq3 Hell yeah! mother fucking afghanis they kick ass! dont be misguided by their pijamas or their smelly beards or even their missing teeth, they will make you regret you steped in to their teritorry big time!

[afarooq3]

@enchilada01

lol im not american or afghan...relax...

[enchilada01]

@afarooq3 sorry man, just making a statement,cheers!

[FireOfEire]

Hehe just replace "more ships" with "bigger dicks" and replace "less ships" with "smaller dicks".

[powerofthroughts]

@FireOfEire you must have big asshole, you need a bigger dick.

[FireOfEire]

@powerofthroughts

Awww sense of humour fail.

[powerofthroughts]

@FireOfEire No you failed, your uneducated remarks can tell you are a failure. let me teach you how to achieve greatness, plan, desire or faith, patience and persistence.

[FireOfEire]

@powerofthroughts

Listen, if you can't take a joke, you'll never achieve greatness (unless your name is Ahmedinejad). People will just end up disliking you and eventually, everybody needs a network to get ahead. If you can't crack or take a joke to the people that work for you, they won't be motivated enough to work harder. If you work somewhere and you can't take a joke, your co-workers won't like you and you'll be miserable. I'm doing fine achieving this so-called "greatness", but smiling.

[powerofthroughts]

@FireOfEire Good to see your smile by insult others , you prick. I think you need to go to a comedy school. you don't know anything about jokes. Insult others are not joke mother fck, you get yourself hurt. lucky it is youtube.

[FireOfEire]

@powerofthroughts

Who did I insult exactly?

[lindazimmer]

China might go the way Germany did, if not careful. God is fighting now to control it, but its hard. A secret about the real God. A hive mind within Mankind of all left brains fused into one mind. The old God. Using language abilities in Jews to influence money, politics, history. Trying to control, rival mind made of right brains, fused into one. Satan. Spatial intelligence. Left brain favors Jews, right favors Germans, maybe Chinese. They fight within us all.(God vs. Satan Untold Story)

[typhoonq]

@lindazimmer I do not understand on what basis you think China will behave like what Germany did in the past. China was a victim of foreign aggression and is now surrounded by hostile US Forces who constantly send their carrier groups close to China coastal region. You Americans are great hypocrites and please stop asking God to help you people where you guys are the greatest Satan who fan discord and create a lot of tensions wherever you go

[Sovietcomrade232]

@typhoonq not all americans (myself included)

[Sovietcomrade232]

@lindazimmer That is the stupidest shit I have heard, even from a christian.

[IntoxicatedPuma]

oh god what will we do, China has 290 ships, most of which can't even go on the open ocean and weigh under 5,000 tons, to our 260 ships of which most weigh more 7,500 tons. Our 60 Arleigh Burkes and 25 Ticonderogas vs their 2 Type 052B class.....gee i dont know it could be close!

[powerofthroughts]

china is no where surpassing the u.s fleet size, this is politic, forbes just wants more money for the u.s military.. ha ha ha, u.s stupid to dominate the world, the world is now don't give the u.s any more respect.,. ha ha

[fdoca]

US must stop bashing China now and forever, Try to be a good friend as China has been shown to us.

We owed 800 billion on bonds to China, plus Chinese has a US 2 trillion more in doallar in People's central bank, That is closed to 3 trillion dollars

Chinese do lost a lot money over drag our dollars along, that is a favor we owed it to them, If But If they dump this 3 trillion, the other countries will follow, then we are finished, PERIOD !! Lets make friend instead !!!

[Kmagnus80]

@fdoca Why are you using 'we'? Clearly your Chinese, your english is horrible, and your rhetoric is sterotypical Cinese propaganda. Plus the debt that china holds is in terms of bonds and invesment. they can't simply drop this, if they do their economy goes to shit, just like the US's. US and China's econmoies are too dependent on each other when 1 fails so does the other.

[diamond7303]

@Kmagnus80 He is not but I am a Chinese instead, unfortunately your English was so poor either or look at your word" economy" haha.. 

[Kmagnus80]

@diamond7303 ??? My english was poor? Are you confused... I know the internet is new/forbidden in china, its OK you'll get more confident over time...

[1spiralman]

@fdoca china is unloading american debt as of now. in case you haven't noticed n. korea does not do anything without china's okay so give me a break about throwing china love. they want to also take tawain away from those people. like china is not big enough already. obama is in china's pocket. we have about half of the navy ships we had 10 to 15 years ago and thats the way obama and soros like it. they want america weak.

[groendel]

@fdoca countrys doesnt have friends pal.... only has interest!

[andyhwang2009]

I think China richer than USA now within 3 years and 21 century is for China.

[rabbidsuperpower]

1 trillion dollars is only 1/10 of the enitre foreign debts. you also owe a lot to the japanese and the saudis. =(

[piethon358]

Now a days... they don't even care when we buzz 'em and take pictures..

In fact they play a game where they act like we just caught em with new equipment on their decks and then try to cover'em up... soo funny.. In the begining the brass spent hours wondering what the stuff was... they were just mock up toys of sorts just to make us go crazy... and needless to say.. we've done it to them.... It's all just a game...

Lt. J. Som'em

US Navy

[ratanasu]

@piethon358 the Chinese no play with military defend opium war are the big lesson to china.

[mvpmike93tx]

I'm PRETTY sure the Chinese can catch up to a navy that has been in the making for over half a century. ~sarcasm~

[piggadave]

@mvpmike93tx u need no be.....the chinese wun be as idiotic as the soviet union to match the US ship for ship...... but dun rest on ur laurels.... The British was once the master of the seas when the US fleets consist of a few seaworthy battleships... without dreadnoughts..... no one can be no one eprpetually

[xxvolcomkidxx13]

why cant we just build our military and make strong ties with germany and htem so we could expand obama is an idiot

[Elect4Sure]

This is Bad news.

Where are the rest of our Ships?

[mightyherc1]

It is amazing that given the sensitivity with which DoD treats all Congressional inquiries that the DoN would blow this one! I seriously doubt they lost or forgot the request so that means someone intentially decided to ignore the request - and probably for good reason.

[mcap52]

Due to China's economic growth and the fact that they own at least a trillion dollars of our debt I am afraid that we will be surpassed as the "superpower of the world".

[apresesco]

@mcap52 Better for the world!

[drharris2020]

It's not the size, it's what you do with it. If they submit it , congress will screw it up.
