Satellite Images Show China Is Building Mock-Up U.S. Warships

The video discusses China's construction of mockups of US aircraft carriers, which are seen as a deterrence measure and a warning to the US. These mockups, first built in 2019, are used for target practice and are part of China's military expansion. The US also conducts similar exercises. Rising tensions between the US and China, particularly in Taiwan and the South China Sea, are highlighted. A Pentagon report notes China's growing military presence and missile tests, which China has not acknowledged. China's target practice models have evolved from concrete slabs to more detailed and mobile versions. Official Chinese responses dismiss the Pentagon report as biased.
