@@wuhui not really. what brought the empire down was by far the military, especially the navy. None like the rising western powers at the time, the Qing empire was ESTABLISHED WORLD POWER, which means it has inherited not only the territory, but (most importantly) control of trade routes, control of trade relations with countries (global), control of existing treaties (political) with countries (again global), that the Chinese have accumulated through their multiple world shaping dynasties . it was the manager or lack of a better word the sustainer of the world order at the time. it is because of this fundamental property of the empire 1. it has not fought a single war for a very long time, hence lagging behind in military technologies especially the naval. 2. theres basically no reason for industrial revolution to happen, if you have no war, no need for spikes on productivity, no tension in you immediately sphere of influence, and no reason for expansion or conquest simply because you already have all. 3. normally, itd be extremely difficult to break into the ESTABLISHED WOELD POWER, unless you can use a vastly superior naval to cut through trade routes that it control. and that, was the DESICIVE move that they did, to end the dominance of the Qing empire. therefore, it was the military/navy that brough the once great empire to its very keens, nothing else really.

Considering they are building ships 9 & 10 as we speak they are absolutely building more. They are far more than incremental upgrades over the 052D and in fact serve very different missions. As well as having almost double the VLS capacity the tubes of 055 are longer and have a larger diameter meaning it can be armed with ordinance that won’t fit in the tubes of any other Chinese warship. They recently tested VL AShBM from an 055 and there’s been discussion that it will be equipped with the HQ-19 ABM it may also be able to carry DF-100 class hypersonic cruise missiles with a far longer range than the YJ-18 of the 052D. The 055 also has much improved radar, fire control and combat management systems as well as flag facilities to allow it to serve as a flotilla flagship. The 052D is an equivalent of the USN Arleigh Bourke flight II, it’s a general purpose destroyer that specialises in AAW while retaining a powerful land attack and some ASW capabilities. The 055 is far more offensively orientated and disregarding it’s classification as a destroyer it’s a cruiser, being considered S such by the USN. It’s designed to complement the long range land attack and anti ship capabilities of a 003 CBG or provide the primary long range strike ability of the 001/002 CBG while also being the hub of the flotillas AAW network with its superior combat management systems. As well as this it will likely be responsible for the flotillas ABM defences.

Thanks JD. This is one of these speculative topics people will have a wide range of views on. I think despite the slowing in the Chinese economy, the ratio of defence spending to GDP still has a lot of room to increase because it is still relatively low. According to foreign estimates, China spends under 2 percent of GDP on military, so it can increase this to around the US level (around 3.8 percent), while still being sustainable and despite the current economic difficulties. Persumably, the priority for any addiitonal funding would be to the naval forces. I was a bit loathe to get into this area in the video because it kind of requires lots of elaboration (including on the difference between nominal GDP and PPP measures). So, I think China can afford to procure lots of new ships, while maintaining the old units until they are retired.

In fact, the Type 052D destroyer as an air defense capital ship plays a huge role in the fleet. It can not only carry a variety of missiles, but most of them are air defense missiles. The Chinese fleet has a large number of anti-aircraft capital ships to protect aircraft carriers. Unless you can fire all the missiles in your fleet within a minute, it will still be very difficult to damage the carrier.

Thanks for the comment. Although I don't think I'd agree that there is a strong parallel between the PLAN's buildup and that of the Kaiserliche Marine leading up to WWI. To really go into this would require a lot of time and detail. In short, Germany faced major land-based military threats on multiple fronts which limits how much it can invest in its navy. China does not face significant land-based threats right now, at least not relative to its economic size. Potential threats are either neturalised by political compromise (Russia and North Korea), or highly defensible border (India). Germany also never had sufficient shipbuilding capability to fully match that of the UK.

The first island chain will be broken. The USN will be left with less than 11 aircraft carrier battlegroups along with forces spread across the Western Pacific. If the USN has to keep at least two battlegroups in the Atlantic and Med theaters, two or three in dock for repairs and refitting, then, that leaves about five or so to take on the PLAN.

China is being practical. The only ships that can remain hidden from satellites are subs(nowadays dozens of satellites are launched from a single rocket so satellites will be continuously watching). And with the long range of anti ship cruise missiles, surface ships won’t last 24 hours in a real war. I won’t be surprised if China does build 20 atomic SSN simultaneously as tension escalates. The conventional powered subs will probably outnumber their atomic powered subs by 5 to 1. I expect hundreds of small battery powered autonomous subs that work as a team with nuke powered subs (including routine recharging from the atomic sub while submerged. Inductive linked same as cell phones are recharged without plugging in). In 2035, the subs will get targeting info from satellites and launch long range anti ship cruise missiles).

China will do what needs to be done and will continue to develop its war fighting capability on land and at sea The PLAN will continue to see investment and a clear emphasis when it comes to potential future conflicts whether that be over Taiwan or elsewhere such as the south China sea I expect 40-60 ships all together being commissioned by the PLAN within the next 5-10 years - this will most likely include 20 destroyers/frigates - 3 076 drone carriers “1 new special drone carrier research ship” that’s was just discussed on Weibo 004 carrier and about 20 auxiliary ships such as more 071 ships and other troop carrier capable ships such as the 072 All of this is without even discussing the submarine programme and the rapid development there as well - and the new submarine shipbuilding naval dock was recently built so it’s genuinely crazy to see what the combined output of off these shipyards will be if Xi has decided for an acceleration of procurement and development Fantastic review and video as usual mate

@@EurasiaNaval "I need to do some digging into the Type 076 (...)" Consider a discussion video whether *a squadron of drone wing armed Type 076 (e.g. 3) can outperform a supercarrier* in terms of cost-benefit ratio. It's probably too much to research and calculate, conclusively - a task for computer modelling - but likely worth to be debated and considered as a potential trend (observable in US and NATO procurement).

China will build 5 more Chung dynasty nuclear powered super carriers DWT from 110,000 to 137,000 tons with minimum human sailors. Chinese carriers will mainly run by AI operated by robots and a human crew of less than 150 sailors., good enough to cover all the 7 seas. China will have super cool destroyers at least 30 more to expand her fleet all the way to Cuba and Caribbean waters by 2035. Thank God that finally China is chosen to counter US and her friends abnormal military power and uncontrollable behavior

The funny thing is, the chinese are finding out that there are no experienced naval officers in the chinese navy to train their sailors. By the time they find enough officers to train the sailors, these ships would be out dated. The US/NATO can easily build more ships but there’s are reasons why they don’t. But remember, the Japanese Navy was built and trained by the British and German. Didn’t not end well for them.

You should stop calling the Type 055 a "destroyer" - it's far too big and it has facilities for an admiral to control a task force of other ships. It's a cruiser and NATO rightly classifies it as a cruiser. I know the PLAN calls it a "destroyer" but that's just political downplaying almost as visibly absurd as Japan calling its carriers "destroyers" or Russia calling the Admiral Kuznetsov a "cruiser"

Japan's economy has been stagnant for decades with their gdp per capita (PPP) now less than Italy. What exactly do you think they can do against China which has over 11 times Japan's population? As for South Korea they're a relatively small country of only 50 million population with their economy being less than on par with Japan. They're also already a highly militarized country to counter North Korea so there's not much more resources they can devote to the military.

We will see what's coming... US wanted China down for a long long time ever since Korean War, but West had to content with USSR. Now when USSR gone, China have gotten to stage too powerful to directly fight but soon Superpower will still make the choice to direct head on naval battles by dragging the rest of developed world in... (world recession) ~2024 war against a lone China, extreme naval battles If West supremacy do not make this last move, China will be beyond all nations capabilities. Even if Developed West US & UK make this move... They will still lose in the end. 1. Direct Ground war is suicide. 2. Naval battles is possible but Not winning at end. Because China will recover quicker, Develop led world just have no capability to output at such pace with such technologies... This is actually also limited by real economic powers, US have difficulties in keeping her current ships, US is unable to replace the old ships. Thus many old ships are kept running well beyond their years. US also don't have the ability to build in any quantity of modern large ships (because every project is overblown budget & astronomical in price) Whereas China make the same (level tech, same everything) with 1/3 to even 1/5 of cost while at break neck speed, & often in budget Thus the end is coming for the current old Supremacy But current supremacy will create wars everywhere to supposedly make a reset.

nice video would be nice to go back to this in 2035 to see how accurate these predictions were.. I agree with the general trends here. I won't comment about the surface ships since I haven't been paying attention to them as much, but the nuclear sub numbers see rather optimistic to me unless Russia gave them some of theirs? I imagine they would still be producing more advanced AIP diesel subs for export market in 2035. nuclear subs are expensive to build and operate. if China wanted a sub fleet for a green water environment. (I can't imagine them sailing all over the world in 2035 to visit every ocean) I'd build more advanced, but cheap diesels. a navy of this size on nuclear propulsion would require a naval budget double what it is today that they have. Also their economy isn't what it was pre COVID. anyways, thanks for the detailed analysis. Too bad China doesnt spend more on space exploration rather than military dominance.

Cruisers are out-dated in modern war far: hypersonic missiles are cheaper and easier to maintain. China is building her navy because of too much capacity and steel production. She should concentrate to build destroyers and frigates for sales to the developing countries; she has the advantages of capacity and speedy delivery; even today she is producing 3 heavy destroyers, I believe she could build more than twice this number; unlike some wanna be competitor who took 7 years just to build ONE smallish destroyer!

Going the nuclear carriers/vessels route would just warrant unwanted feelings of threat not only from the Collective WEST but also from other global south countries especially the other great powers like Turkiye, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Iran, India and Indonesia and would just be a bad PR stunt on China's part especially when it espouses self defense and non interference, the risk in a defensive war is just too great because it mandates that you keep your forces close to your territory and if nuclear vessels are sunk near you, the environmental and political costs would be untenable unlike in a nation with an offensive military doctrine where the forces are expected to be very far from your own homeland and the risk of having your nuclear vessels being sunk close to home is minimal. China would be better off with cheaper more numerous and more technologically advanced conventionally, hydrogen fuel cell or electrically powered vessels operating close to home in order to protect its political image of not being a global hegemon not to mention it would also be better accepted by its people once they know the human and environmental consequences of having nuclear powered vessels possibly being sunk near their shoreline in a defensive war, not to mention the near impossibility of recovering and storing the wreckage that is many meters under the sea in an event like conflicts or accidents.

"China would be better off with cheaper more numerous and more technologically advanced conventionally, hydrogen fuel cell or electrically powered vessels operating close to home (...)" I agree with that - although there is the mid-term issue of securing the first island chain - not necessarily to invade a 'neutral' Taiwan - including _some_ carrier capability and denying US missile stationing within the second island chain. But the factor of entering a security competition with India e.g. is real and needs to be considered - to limit the carrier number to six _conventional_ vessels could reassure a SCO consensus.

@@christophmahler I believe that the first island and second island chains are prone to what's called Stockholm syndrome [that the US currently operates with] and if China wants to control us here in the first island chain without everyone complaining and retaliating for the perceived China threat especially a nuclear powered flotilla then China needs to be prepared to demolish us like what the US did and afterward rebuild us as loyal subjects and this is the few ways where the Chinese fleet will be confident enough in the first island chain, whatever China does is bound to raise alarm bells here unless China subjugates us first and rebuild a new regional order and only after that can it deal with India with nuclear or preferably conventional powered fleets due to having by now forward bases in and around ASEAN, unless China is prepared to do this bloody operation then all this prep against the WEST and India will fail, I love China and I hope it succeeds but the way I see it they are bound to fail against the US, China uses money and investments to woo nations here but money can't solve everything, most nations that received Chinese help are either suspicious of China or are quick to reverse course with or without Western orders because emotions reign over economics in the minds of people here. If China wants to fight the WEST then it needs to learn from the WEST including its more nasty side. If China takes control of the first island chain without conquering Taiwan and without quasi colonizing/vassalizing the nations around China then these nations would very quickly turn to the WEST and arm themselves like Ukraine defeating China's goals of pushing the WEST out of the region. As far as India is concerned, leave it alone and given enough time and it will implode due to internal factors. If China wants to fight a DEMON[WEST] it will have to be a DEMON itself, be the thing it wants to defeat because if not then China is just wasting money and taking too much risk for something that would likely fail.
