It is not necessarily a preparation to being an aggressor, but as a predictable 'gearing up' to defending its expanding trade routes, strategic raw material imports and export pipeline. It is now an active participator in the Combined Naval Task Force, deterring piracy off the Somali coastline. SizeThe US Navy is the world's largest with over three hundred thousand personnel, but China ranks second at about two thirds that size, like for like.
