Episode 387: Looking at the Chinese Navy at 2030, with Patrick Cronin


Listen Later

2030 is as close to us today as 2004, only 13 years.

As we look at various ways to maintain a Navy at t level at which we have become accustomed, the People’s Liberation Army Navy of China is building step by step as their economic power and global influence grows.
