threat,has no or little over-sea military bases to maintain, doesn't engage in arm race and only interested in maintaining credible deterence. USSR spent 15% of GDP on military and chinese mil spending is only 1.9%(and there're evidence chinese GDP is understated).

The only things china doesn't produce as much as USSR did is hydrocarbon and some minerals. China passenger car production is 15 times that of USSR.

Basically u're an idiot
