the hawks or hard-liners
Explanation:
"Hawk" is a bird of prey. Extended meaning of "hawks" -- people who favor a militaristic version of their country's foreign policy.
If used for political or business competition, the term "hardliners" is also appropriate.

You can add American, Chinese or whatever nationalistic adjectives to it.
