No way the US is catching up to China. They are far ahead in everything except weapons and war.
And even with war, I kept hearing something like, "China may have the manpower and even the firepower, but they haven't fought a war in decades. The US has plenty of experience," but experience in what? Losing in the Middle East?
A losing fight is still a teacher. Still, I don't think the current DoD can put down its hubris and adjust for modern war seen in Iran or Ukraine.
