I'm afraid I have to disagree with you, first of all Russia does not want Ukraine but want it to be independent and NOT join Nato, If US/Nato had not overthrown the legal government in Kiev , Putin would have never taken back Crimea because he had a long time contract on his warm water marine base, he was forced to take it back and after a referendum 85% of the population choose to be Russian !!! Its the US Coup that started it all?? US control of Ukraine air force shot down the MH17 and killed 295 people, mistaken it for Putins plan, using a Ukraine jet, Russia has shown proof of that and US?Ukraine are hiding the facts?? Putins airforce is more advanced than you think and in some things even ahead of US, also don't forget China's Militairy, its all new while US is all old, except the Nuke Subs and they will decide the outcome when it goes global?
No, no coup by NATO or the US I see putin propaganda machine is live and well.
What is old in the US? you surely don't mean the new Zumwalt-class destroyer's, Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carriers, Virginia-class attack submarine's the new rail-gun is set for ship mount testing this year and the new ship mount laser weapon system that been deployed to the middle east then add the 5th generation fighters f35 and f22, I'm sure we have old ships that need painting that I have no doubt and I didn't count the new amphibious ships and missile cruisers
So whats new in china is not impressive, its naval force isn't even competition to the Japanese, I know china is working on modernization but it will be a vary long time for it to catch up right now it is barely capable to defending its shore with it's navy, it's subs are noisy and easily detectable, it has but one jet capable of landing on its new carrier (a repainted rust bucket from russia) a carrier with no support ships.
