[RiseofAsia]

Still too little.
US has 6k, Russia also has 6k.

[keys]

No one use Nuke these days ..so why bother invest on such weapons

China should just focus on how to destroy a carier fleet effectively
others include
- Satelite destruction
- anti submarine weapons
- anti drone weapons sea and air
- anti stealth bombers and fighters

if you have these ... US will not dare to come to Chinese waters

1,500???

Should be 15,000 lah! 

[RiseofAsia]

To use nuclear warheads to destroy US air craft carriers and destroyers is an overkill, cos only a conventional warhead is enough deterrence.......

If u see clearly on the longer run, Chinese is to beat USA out of Asia.

First step is Taiwan, then Russia and China will close in on Japan.

As for SK, NK will keep playing with them.

To be fair a lot of wumao and little pink do believe dip dip that CCP can just nuke the whole planet to repopulate it with ATs later.

if u think china need missiles to bomb US, then u are wrong.

China will assemble a nuclear bomb right at enemy soil and trigger it.
why use an ineffective missile when u can assemble it at enemy soil

[Manthink]

1,500???  Should be 15,000 lah! 

The figure is Pentagon's prediction in the future.

In any case, it is well known the Chinese had not shown interested in matching no. of nuke warheads with US or Russia since it is the ONLY country in the  5 permanent member of UN Security Council to declare "No First Use" policy.

They do that by not mounting their nuke warheads on missiles while keeping their stockpile < 500.

I can only say there is NO winner in a nuclear war.

The outcome any "winner" from such holocaust is who can survive the 1st or 2nd strike as by that time, much of the major cities in China, US or Europe will already in nuclear firestorm - This means the World will stop functioning as we know today.

1,500 is the official figure China wants US to know. I think secretly China could be stocking 5 times more.  ...

You mean China actually has a stockpile of 7,500......?

[Sticw]

Actually the whole nuclear bomb thingy is a lie and fake. What they dropped in Japan is just high tonnage TNT with some radioactive dirt to created the fear etc.

It is more effective to just ship and throw dirty bomb than to fire some nuclear warheads.

Thanks for the education, bro...........

Ask yourself this - Why need so many nuke when you can achieve effective deterrence with a smaller budget with fewer nuke weapons ?

This is one reason why the Chinese can focus more on their economy and reducing poverty while Russian economy tank and 63% of Americans has < $500 savings.

Not true.  No airplane can carry 150,000 ton.

The largest plane An-244 heaviest cargo is just 280 ton.
