This book is a collection of essays written by academics, analysts and military personnel on analyzing the impact on India of the developments in China, specifically in the military field. As China’s material strength is increasing, its impact on the global and regional environments is clearly visible in the recent period. The near double-digit economic growth rate in China have been channelized into the near double digit growth in the defence allocations in the last two decades. This has resulted in major transformations in China’s strategic orientation, military structure, procurement patterns, personnel quality, logistics and extensive deployments across the country. These developments, specifically in the strategic domain of offensive orientation of the armed forces of China and their preparations, have led to concerns in Asia and beyond.
