U.S. airpower is our main deterrence against China, according to Stephen Bryen, Senior Fellow, Center for Security Policy.

“So far as U.S. airpower is concerned, I think the U.S. Air Force, and the Marines aviation, as well as naval aviation … is better than anything the Chinese have … And I feel very confident that we [would] do very well against the Chinese Air Force,” Bryen told “China in Focus” on NTD, the sister media outlet of the Epoch Times, on Jan. 27.
