The Chinese military is quite impressive. First of all, it has over 2.3 million people on active duty and just as many in reserve. Data also indicates that it has over 9,000 tanks, 2,800 aircraft and a huge fleet.
While it may now own a fifth generation fighter jet, it has a couple of them currently under development. China also has nuclear subs at its disposal, as well as unmanned combat aerial vehicles, plus a few currently under development. The country’s defense budget sits at $145 billion.
