>>64007684In WW2 the US could make 5 times more vessels than Japan.
China niw has 20 times the production capacity of the USA today.
Those are bad odds considering that the Chinese quality isn't anymore so far behind.
It is more and more looking like the US is like Germany in WW2 and the Chinese are like the Soviets. Having somewhat better stuff isn't winning the war if you get outnumbered and outproduced by stuff that's nearly as good.
