此人過去許多文章中國人都嗤之以鼻
認為他完全是在灌水+自慰，說他該去吃藥
噗 結果現在中國人居然拿他的文章來自慰了?
而且這篇文章把日本排在第5喔
看看當初中國人是怎麼嘲笑Kyle的說法的

※ 引述《ymth (ymth)》之銘言：
: 美國《國家利益》:中國擁有世界第二強海軍
: 只節錄中國
: China
: The People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) has come a long way in the last 25
: years. The spectacular growth of the Chinese economy, which fueled a tenfold
: defense-budget increase since 1989, has funded a modern navy. From a
: green-water navy consisting of obsolete destroyers and fast attack boats, the
: PLAN has grown into a true blue-water fleet.
: The PLAN currently has one aircraft carrier, three amphibious transports, 25
: destroyers, 42 frigates, eight nuclear attack submarines and approximately 50
: conventional attack submarines. The PLAN is manned by 133,000 personnel,
: including the Chinese Marine Corps, which consists of two brigades of 6,000
: marines each.
: The People’s Liberation Army Navy Air Force provides fixed-wing aircraft and
: helicopters for China’s new aircraft carrier, helicopters for surface ships,
: and shore-based fighter, attack and patrol aircraft. The PLANAF has 650
: aircraft, including J-15 carrier-based fighters, J-10 multirole fighters, Y-8
: maritime patrol aircraft, and Z-9 antisubmarine warfare aircraft.
: China’s first aircraft carrier, the Liaoning, deserves special attention. It
: was commissioned into service in 2012. Originally built for the Soviet Navy,
: after the end of the Cold War, Liaoning’s unfinished hull languished in a
: Ukrainian shipyard. Purchased by a PLA front company, the ship was towed back
: to China where it spent nearly a decade being refitted. Liaoning is expected
: to function as a training carrier as China grows accustomed to the complex
: world of carrier operations.
: The People’s Liberation Army Navy is well into the process of modernizing
: its amphibious capability, having commissioned three Type 071 amphibious
: platform dock ships. Each Type 071 LPD can carry from 500 to 800 Chinese
: marines and 15 to 18 vehicles, and can get troops ashore via hovercraft
: patterned on the American LCAC and Z-8 medium transport helicopters. China is
: also reportedly planning on building amphibious assault ships with
: full-length flight decks along the lines of the American Wasp-class. A total
: of six Type 071s and six of the new amphibious assault ships are rumored to
: be planned.
: China’s submarine force is a decidedly mixed bag, with up to 60 submarines
: of varying quality. The core of the force consists of three Shang-class
: nuclear attack submarines, nine Yuan, 14 Song and 10 Improved Kilo submarines
: imported from Russia. China’s ballistic-missile submarine fleet is made up
: of three Jin-class missile submarines with a fourth (and possibly fifth)
: under construction. It is thought the South China Sea will eventually be used
: as a bastion for China’s sea-based nuclear deterrent.
: The PLAN continues to grow and learn. At least two more aircraft carriers are
: planned, and China’s carriers could eventually number up to five. In
: addition to carrier operations, the PLAN is also learning how to conduct
: extended voyages through its contribution to the international antipiracy
: effort off the Horn of Africa. China has sent 17 naval task forces to the
: region, rotating in ships and crews to learn long-distance ship-handling
: skills.
