    Never thought about this before, but if China was going to start shit they’re getting a really good look at US capabilities right now with little risk other than market disruption.

      Honestly, I think China is probably thinking they vastly overestimated the US.

      If Iran is outproducing the US and most of NATO, China could run circles around them.

      Indeed, a lot of the US capabilities and limitations are being revealed now. I’d also be shocked if China wasn’t quietly testing stuff like radars in Iran to see if they can detect US stealth jets for example.
