You have a point there. Oddly, China just recently started putting Aircraft carriers in the water. They are definitely ramping up their military but I don't know if they can yet be classified as a global superpower. I think they are a regional power with global implications. This will not always be the case.

China definitely is a superpower.

If there ever was a non-nuclear war, they'd be unbeatable because of their manufacturing capability.

It was the American manufacturing capability that won World War II. The Soviets were losing to the Germans until the Americans sent them massive amounts of weapons. The Japanese got off to a good start in 1941-42, but eventually they were overwhelmed by the enormous number of American battleships, tanks, planes, etc produced by the US economy.

Man for man, the Japanese were actually braver and better troops than the Americans. Over 95% of the Japanese soldiers fought to the death, refusing to surrender in situations where they were badly outnumbered and out-gunned, like in the Battles of Saipan, Iwo Jima, and Peleliu.

In April to June 1945, even though the Japanese had practically no navy left, their determination caused the greatest American losses of the war in the Battle of Okinawa (over 82,000 US casualties on land and sea, 768 U.S. planes, at least 225 tanks, and 368 Allied ships, primarily from kamikaze attacks).

They have one aircraft carrier. It's hard to be a superpower with one aircraft carrier.

Exactly why we had to drop a couple of serious gifts on their semi larger cities, they would never have stopped until their chiefs ordered them to.Good reason to not bomb their capital and cut their communications,two lesser cities was smart.
