China To Challenge America as “Dictator” Xi Commands World’s Largest Navy | From The Frontline

China has successfully conducted the first phase of sea trials for its third aircraft carrier Fujian. Fujian is being called a supercarrier because it will be the largest aircraft carrier in Asia. China will now become only the second nation in the world after the US with an aircraft carrier that uses electromagnetic launch systems or EMALS. This comes at a time when China is showing more and more aggressive behavior towards India, Philippines, Japan, Taiwan and the US. Meanwhile, China also claims Spratly Islands and Scarborough shoal including the Second Thomas shoal that belong to the Philippines. Beijing also claims the Senkaku Islands of Japan. With China’s rise as a maritime power, the United States has increased its military presence and deployment in the Pacific Ocean and the South China sea with bases in Japan, South Korea, Guam, Philippines, Thailand and Australia.
