I don't see China leading in anything when it comes to operations in space. They are finally getting up there. They are doing things we did 40 to 50 years ago!

Our first space station, Skylab, flew back in the 70's, lol We have had over a dozen men walk on the moon, again the last time we were there, was in the early 70's. We have robotic rovers on Mars, we have 2 spacecraft that have been in space and still functioning after 37 years,Voyager 1 and 2. The Hubble space telescope has shown us wonderous things in space, and continues to do so. And we can't forget the ISS, way ahead of anything they have got or will get in the future.

China ahead of us in space, in a pigs arse they are!
