This is a none issue for me. The Japanese defence budget is going to grow about 3% a year. But the Japanese Yen has lost 34% of her value over just the past 2 years. The Japanese buck gives less bang these days. And any increase in defense spending will put more pressure on Japan's fiscal situation.

Well, Dennis Rodman is back in North Korea again and is training a North Korean basketball team to play a exhibition match against a team made up of former NBA stars from America for Kim Jong Un's birthday. I wonder why Dennis Rodman is getting so much criticism for befriending Kim Jong Un. You...

Its a two way street. A lot of electronic components in Western militaries are made in China.

J-8 ? I don't think that SAC produces J-8's anymore. The SAC today is producing J-11B, J-11BS and J-15. The J-15S, J-16 and the J-31 are in development. The PLAAF are no longer buying any new J-8's and they are next on the chopping board for the PLAAF fleet after the J-7's. And there are no...

Looks very nice.

Good for India! The Snowden revelations have already costs US tech companies almost 180 billion dollars in business around the world as countries like China, India, Brazil, Russia and others are turning away from US tech. And companies like IBM and others have seen double digits falls in their...

The taper won't come as that will bankrupt the US government, the entitlement programs, Wall Street banks, the pension funds, home owners and bond holders and bond insurers all in one fell swoop as interest rates rises. The US economy is not improving despite the hype and propaganda by the...

Watch this documentary. Here is the real reason why the Russian choose the SU-33 over the MiG-29 in the 1990's. They start talking about the Flanker and the Fulcrum from 42:50 onwards.

The 3 MFI display layout is still in use in all frontline fighters of the US. The F-16, F-15, F/A-18 and even the F-22. And all modern USN carriers and other ships still use the phase array radars today. No new technology only improved. And for the new cockpit on the F35. The F-35 is a...

India has her own ADIZ and so does 20 other countries.:coffee:

An aircraft carrier in the end of the day is about launching recovering and servicing aircrafts for battle. Both the Liaoning and the Vikramaditya have drawbacks in their design. But despite the flaws of the Liaoning it can do all three things at the same time. Letting aircrafts land, take off...

Joe biden is getting senile at the age of 71.:o: If we look at what happened to people who challenge the powers to be in the US. Bradley Manning is in solitary confinement, Julian Assange is still held up in a embassy in London and Edward Snowden is in forced exile in Russia. Occupy Wall...

Joe Biden is getting senile. The US have already de facto recognise China's ADIZ when they advised their airlines to submit flight plans to China when crossing China's ADIZ. And several of them have already did that.

How is China going to use its SU-35 ? She's not! Because China is not going to buy the SU-35 and in my view she shouldn't. Its quite amazing that some one could write such a lengthy article about nothing.

I see Shanghai, I see Taiwan, I see Hong Kong and i even see Macau on the list. But i don't see China on the list. Where is China ? Shanghai just one city can't represent the whole of China.

So India is a very succesful immigrant community in America. Congrats on that! Most of the Indians that emigrate to the US are often highly skilled professionals like doctors and engineers. This means brain drain for India itself. However if you look at the Gulf states where most Indians are...

As much as i appreciate this article its some what disingenuous as it compares Shanghai (a city) with other countries. Where does China as a whole stand on the rankings ?

There are two things that need to be said about Vinod Dham. First of all he was born in India but is an American citizen. Secondly he is a venture capitalist and not an engineer that worked on the project.
