the font look different from the rest of picture tho, so I am not so certain about the reliability of that picture.

well that would mean we would have some BBQing... :flame:

of course it is... that's world politic, and when you own couple of trillion dollar worth of debt, you are going to apply that pressure, I have no doubt as well: US 'won't take sides' in South China Sea territorial dispute - Yahoo! News Vietnam should increase relation with Philippines and...

nice guy, you have a high res version of your avatar? I like to post that on facebook, it's cute ;-)

it's just an enlarge version of the existing class. there are no material to suggest the new boats are a new class of it's own, they are still mention as 039s... There are also photo of Admiral Mike Mullen touring the inside of one of these "new, still-secret" sub... it easy to recognise...

I have to disagree, ASEAN itself is never unified; we the original member created this to halt communist expansion remember? you have to thank the collapse of USSR that Vietnam is even in ASEAN. Vietnam does not speak for ASEAN anymore than other memberstate. btw it is US that stated it has no...

fap. fap. fap. fake. 3.7 mach is beyond the capacity of most design, even the F-22 wouldn't come close. and to do it for a plane large enough to act as a bomber, even with titanium would thing would deformed under such friction, nothing but fanboy BS. there is a bomber program, but all this...

Sunzi say: The best commander are not those that can win war, but those that can win a war without fighting. Even without doing anything, China has gain more friends, that is why China can become so strong today. How can they beat what is as unmovable as a mountain? let those that desire...

How is China dependent on the US when US account for less than 30% of China's external trade and continues to shrink in marketshare for Chinese goods? When US owe China a trillion dollar? When the EU turn to China to bailout Greece? Let's be realistic, China know US is not going to recover...

China goals was actually well met as it destroyed USSR assurances. as Sun Zi stated, a smart commander is one who wins then go to war. the objective was achieved and China was never attacked. George Bush applied the same genius when he fought the first Iraq war and choose not to advance on Iraq...

China has limited budget and alot of requirement yet...

there is no heavy lift that can handle 130t other than the ones NASA is planning. the only thing that come close is the Soviet Vulcan concept, for comparison, the Vulcan has 8 booster each with twice the thrust output of the engine used on the CZ5 which has only 4 booster, even if China surprise...

we are assuming both side would face off each other with the bulk of their forces, but that is unlikely, US will kept a big presense in europe and middle east while China will keep force in the southwest. it would be a command vs command then a service vs service match up. which if the fight...

then you should play the US side :usflag: :rofl: :guns:

:welcome::rofl:
