Default Re: Ambitious China

It needs to be remembered that China also like to make stuff up. Their capabilities are so far below what they try to talk up. They are all about making themselves look tough, but the realities are far different.

They claimed to have rail guns ready for shipborne testing, but the reality is one shot would melt/distort the barrels, so it's only good for one shot. The same issues the americans have not been able to solve in decades. If the americans haven't been able to solve that problem, who really believes the chinese could? They need someone else to do it first so they can steal the solution.
