Just off the top of my head.
Yes, the PLA is moving towards an information based HQ - ONE information based HQ. The CMC HQ is supposedly the theatre HQ for any action the PLA might embarked on. The problem here is that there are SEVEN military regions, each with its own unique forces that trains to varying degrees of standards and requirements. Thus, for the CMC HQ to even function must be based upon the lowest common demoninator approach - ie, based upon its forces with NO access to information based technologies.
The new subs - they're going on sea trials at the moment and nowhere near operational. If the MINGs and the HANs are any indication, it will be at least 5-6 years before they shake all the cowebs out (ie, learn to use the thing SAFELY) and it will be another 5-6 years before they learn how to use the things EFFECTIVELY. To suggest that they could bypass this step is ludicrous in the extreme.
ICBMs - We finally gotten confirmation of ONE brigade of DF-31s and it's not MIRV. Though the Chinese have tested MIRV technologies. They have yet to field them. No one knows why.
As for the JL-2, the Chinese have stopped working on them.
The rest of the article continues along these lines. It has not caught up with the fact that the Chinese have suspended deliveries of SU-27s from Russia. Maybe, they're trying to get better models but the fact remains that their numbers are now frozen for at least 3 years.
Garbage. Just plain garbage.
