Four days ago , Exercise Joint Sword finished, an annual exercise by the Chinese armed forces that sees increasing numbers of Chinese ships and aircraft encircle Taiwan .
China is currently building the equivalent of the entire Royal Navy every two years .
It was recently reported that they have built the first of a new class of stealth corvette in under a year .
This is the zone in which 99 per cent of naval operations take place.
Posturing around Taiwan , operations in the South China Sea and further afield off, say, Africa are all viable in a smaller hull.
The corvettes will be perfect for trialling new equipment and as an added bonus will provide operational experience to the big ship commanding officers.
