China is rapidly expanding its naval forces, currently boasting 427 active units, including submarines and destroyers, as it seeks to enhance its global maritime presence.
Historically, China once dominated naval power in the 1400s with 3,500 ships but abandoned its maritime ambitions under the Ming Dynasty, leaving its navy to decay.
The People's Liberation Army Navy's growth is significant as it aims to rival American and European naval forces, reflecting China's renewed commitment to maritime dominance.
An analysis by 24/7 Wall St. reveals the types of ships in the Chinese Navy, excluding smaller vessels, which contribute to its formidable regional power.
