A general says China needs at least three aircraft carriers to defend its military interests.
A senior researcher with the Academy of Military Sciences, General Luo Yuan told Beijing News that India and Japan would each have three aircraft carriers by 2014. He said the Chinese regime should also have at least three carriers as well.
Beijing News published Lou Yan's comments on Friday, a couple of days after state media broadcast footage of a decommissioned Soviet aircraft carrier that Chinese military officials say will be used for research.
The move comes as the Chinese regime becomes increasingly assertive in territorial disputes with neighboring countries over the South China Sea.
China's People's Liberation Army is the world's largest armed force. Its defense spending is second only to the United States, but with a much lower budget.
