More like 20 years to build a force truly capable of invading Taiwan.

Looking at minimum 8-10 years to have ONE operable fleet carrier with a trained air wing, IF they started building a carrier tomorrow (and they haven't started building a carrier, nor is there any signs they are about to...and all of the assorted Russian CVs they have are beyond repair).
