| description | Since the late 1990s, China’s military arsenal has been dramatically modernised.
However, the actual military value of the newly developed systems has yet to be clarified. This study attempts to do so, on the basic assumption that technological
military progress per se is not sufficient to increase military strength. Instead of
evaluating arms development in technological terms, it therefore adopts an alternative
approach to consider its adaptability to the country’s strategic situation. |
