The People s Republic of China (PRC) continues to pursue a long-term, comprehensive military modernization program designed to improve its armed forces capacity to fight short-duration, high intensity regional conflicts. Preparing for potential conflict in the Taiwan Strait remains the focus and primary driver of China s military investment; however, the PRC is increasing its emphasis on preparations for contingencies other than Taiwan, such as contingencies in the East China Sea and South China Sea. Additionally, as China s global footprint and international interests grow, its military modernization program has become progressively more focused on investments for a range of missions beyond China s periphery, including power projection, sea lane security, counter-piracy, peacekeeping, and humanitarian assistance/disaster relief (HA/DR).
