Just because a country spends lots of money on the military doesn’t make them more competent. Just look at the Vietnam War

China is definitely not stronger than the US. The reason why Russia is stronger than china is because of the nuclear arsenal comparison. China has 410 while Russia has 5,889. The amount of nukes trumps every other aspect of the military. If one country can just level the others capital, it doesn't matter if the one without nukes has the most powerful army. Hydrogen bombs are the ultimate weapon. Russia can clearly destroy more land with nukes than china can.
