The only way a World War is going to happen, is if the US lost its military might.

Aside from that (and it could be done in a mass scale nuclear attack), there never will be a world war.

The US is so far ahead of any other military. People don't realize how amazingly powerful the US military is. They know it's the best, but it's far better then the second best. (The British)

 

2nd best is the British????

The Chinese would rape the UK.

 

China, Russia vs EU, US.   Some how nukes need to be taken off the playing field for this to ever happen

China wouldn't get remotely near the British Islands...

China has very little troop projection ability.

The PLAN is improving... but it would be no match for the British.

I'm not even sure they have Aircraft Carriers yet.... and without Aircraft Carries your going to have a hard time fighting a modern naval battle.

Basically in a war between the two the British navy would contain the Chinese and keep them stuck at home, while the british could bomb at will... with little recourse for the Chinese.

The PRC has one inoperable Soviet aircraft carrier. They have a fairly capable submarine force, however.

 

True... but that's about all they have.  That and Destroyers which... are ok but not great alone.

I mean, maybe they could slip through with a ballistic sub or two and nuke the British isles.  But i think it'd be against them.

Admittidly though with the way the royal navy is going... it may actually turn out that "swarm" tactics could win the day after a while, since the British i believe are cutting down their navy.
