Click on the LINK. Every type of ship either in service or building or planned is listed, along with tonnage and number of existing and planned. Second largest navy in the world - and growing fast. I'm not about to list hundreds of ships because you are too lazy to click on a simple link.
If you're too lazy to do that, there's no hope for you.
If you don't WANT to be called "lazy", DON'T BE LAZY.
It's pretty simple.
It's right there.
I'm not going to spoon feed you, and I'm not going diaper you and power your *ss. Either look at the link listing all the assets of the Chinese navy or don't, but don't claim that I didn't provide it when you just didn't want to LOOK at it.
And sticking your fingers in your ears so you don't hear about China's growing navy is NOT going to prevent it from growing. YOU may wish to remain ignorant in that regard, but military analysts all around the world are taking note. China's growing navy is already a force to taken seriously - and getting stronger all the time.

Try to understand what we are discussing here. Those million men in China are no threat to Japan, the USA or anyone else. They are defensive only. And in terms of delivering those nukes, China isn't even a match for the UK or France. Their delivery systems are 50 years behind the USA and Russia.
*SIGH*
You are obviously hopeless. He/She who REFUSES to learn will remain ignorant their entire lives.
There is NOTHING "defensive" about China's naval build up. A land-based power does NOT need aircraft carriers for "defensive" purposes. China has plans to build SIX - 4 of them the size of U.S. fleet carriers and 2 of those nuclear powered. Nuclear powered vessels are NOT "defensive". Nuclear power gives RANGE and RANGE is only needed if you are going "on the prowl" - NOT if you are staying close to home.
Likewise China has plans to build nearly 20 large amphibious ASSAULT ships (up from 4 they have right now). NO nation needs ASSAULT ships to DEFEND. ASSAULT ships are built for the purpose of ASSAULT ( ie INVASION). They serve no other purpose.
But, go right ahead. You sound just like those morons who claimed in 1941 that "the Japanese produce rice-paper airplanes and their bespectacled pilots can't see". How'd THAT turn on a sunny December morning in Hawaii?
China's military is growing fast, and they are growing it for a REASON. They aim to dominate the Pacific, and in order to do that, they need a powerful navy so they can project power where ever they want in the region.
I'm not afraid of China, but ANYONE who ignores their global military buildup - and especially their growing naval power - is either a FOOL or being paid by China to prowl the internet and spread Chinese propaganda.
Which are you?

Honestly, who cares? I don't. Asia is not our backyard. What China does is their business. Just like what Europe does is their business. Our business extends to the rest of North America only. The Monroe Doctrine needs to be brought back

You don't have to care. Just don't expect the U.S.A. to be able to compete with China on the Global market. And with the U.S. now out of the TPP, China has a free hand to economically dominate that resource-rich part of the world, and it will have the military muscle to back it up if things get "dicey".

If the US can't compete on the global market with China, then that's not something bombs are going to fix. That's not even ethical anyway, and it's a throwback to colonial times

I don't care either honestly.
this said, can you imagine if America said what Japan does is their business during ww2? lol

We did, until Japan attacked us. And Asia did not need our help. The Chinese were starting to eject Japan out of China by the time the US got involved. Just like in Europe, the US was late for the party, but Americans take credit for "winning" WWII when the bulk of the fighting was done by the locals

well, if you really want to discuss this topic, then
The United States also had an obvious interest in these natural resources, and in response to to the Japanese aggression, the U.S. Congress placed restrictions on doing business with Japan. And, if that weren’t enough, Japanese assets in the United States were frozen.
So we did NOT completely stay out of it.
Now in term of China today, I don't care what they do over there. But let's not pretend China is completely innocent today. Stay out of it means stay out of it. (COMPLETELY) Let Asian countries figure things out, but I don't think it is completely possible.
China Hits Back at South Korea's THAAD Deployment Following North Korea's Latest ICBM Test Did china stay out of it? Nope
Did America stay out of it? Nope.
It is all about politics.
