If I were in charge ...

Ahh yes. Thanks for correcting me. The site I got it from most obviously had a couple of misplaced zeros.

As for Russian and American troops facing each other. Yes they did. In Korea... in the air. American Jet Fighters and Soviet jet fighters sent to help train the Chinese in the new migs they had just recieved.

As for the comparing USSR with China... well the two systems they run under are actually quite different. As to whether a cold war would work on China. Possibly. Possibly not. Hard to tell without trying. Shall we go for another 50 years and find out?

I think this has more accurate information on Chinese military size. http://www.chinatoday.com/arm/

And this has some data on US military.

So is China still a threat then?

And if so why?
