China is reportedly undertaking the largest military build-up since the 1930s, comparable to that of Nazi Germany, according to a Pentagon report. This expansion includes significant enhancements to its nuclear arsenal, advanced psychological warfare tactics, and a focus on naval dominance. Recent analyses indicate that China's military capabilities are rapidly evolving, with the country expected to possess the largest navy in the world, currently at 370 ships and submarines, projected to increase to 435 by 2030. Experts warn that this military escalation is aimed at establishing global dominance and could shift the balance of power internationally.
