Best Answer

The standing army of the PLA (People's Liberation Army) is about 2.25 million men, with a total of about 7.5 million troops in all militry and paramilitary units, and as many as 40 million reserve or civilian guards. They have over 18,000 tanks and are supported by over 2000 planes of the Air Force, the largest in Asia.

The limitation on the Chinese armed forces is the logistical challenge of arming and modernizing these forces. Technology is slowly becoming part of the overall system, which until the 1990's was based almost exclusively on numerical superiority.
