June 5, 2014
The Pentagon today released the 2014 edition of its annual unclassified report on the Chinese military, entitled “Military and Security Developments Involving the People’s Republic of China for 2014.”
The report does not contain many startling revelations. The Chinese military continues to grow at a modest rate, and Beijinhg continues to modernize key components of its military, particularly its navy and air force. But the Chinese People’s Liberation Army, which accounts for 75% of China’s military manpower, is still using tanks, APCs and artillery pieces that are 40 years out of date.
