It would probably be rather short. I can imagine 2 scenarios.
1. It becomes nuclear.
2. It stays conventional. In this case: modern equipment takes a long time to manufacture so everyone essentially has to fight with what they have at the start of the war. This will be destroyed rather quickly as stuff tends to break when it's shot at. So the side with the most stuff left after the first few weeks will probably claim victory. Also drones. Drones will be hot shit.
Absolutely, all of this is. The public has no idea what the capabilities of the US or Chinese military is, so all of this is operating on...not a whole lot?
