Much has been reported about the recent structural reforms undertaken by China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA)—the end goal being a leaner and meaner military force, capable of undertaking a broad spectrum of missions under modern, high-tech conditions.

US Marines have gone "light" with a reliance on airpower, China's Marines have upgraded to "heavy" with lots and lots of "swimming" armour, from tanks, through IFV's, to 120mm mobile gun systems.
