"China is entirely capable of producing the weaponry needed for national defense, " spokesman Geng Yansheng told reports at a monthly briefing, pointing to recent domestic technological breakthroughs such as the country's first aircraft carrier, new generation fighter jets, large transport planes and the Beidou satellite system.
The argument could also be made that delaying construction of the new Ford class of carriers might actually increase the long-term cost of carriers, since the next-generation carrier is designed to reduce crewing requirements by hundreds of personnel, and manpower expenses are the biggest driver of life-cycle costs for aircraft carriers.
FORBES: Despite Budget Woes, The Navy Is Unlikely To Cut Carriers
Sony, Toshiba, Matsushita and six other electronics titans are putting the final touches on a proposal for DVDaudio discs, the next- generation music carrier they hope will replace todays compact disc.
Apple's device isn't compatible with China Mobile's existing network, but both the device and the carrier are moving toward the next generation LTE standard, says Morgan Stanley.

The carrier also is spending billions of dollars to build out a next-generation broadband network, using a technology called LTE, that can handle more wireless data traffic.
T-Mobile, a division of Germany's Deutsche Telekom, is the fourth-largest U.S. wireless carrier and, until last month, lacked the capacity to support "third-generation" (3G) high-speed data networks--which are already offered by some of its larger U.S. rivals, including Verizon Wireless and Sprint Nextel.
