hey man I just simply point out what the most logical outcomes all right? If the west had the ability to saction china they would do it a long time ago. clearly today world ecomomy is very fragile so if china, the second largest ecomomy and major manufactuor and consumer in the world market get...
why would we attack...we just want to defend our territory and use the resources, so we will just continue to build up artificial islands and oil drills and deploy missiles, why should we attack Naval and Merchant ships? Will they attack us first to start the conflict? pls notice that we have...
hey man don‘t be so emotional, let's wait for the future ok? I can assure you we will continue to do what we must and nothing will happen just like always, this is only tough reality so live with that.
sorry but this is really a minor issue, I don't know why ppl concern so much. We have ignored so many "international opinion" and "international laws" so many times and nothing happened, as long as you are strong enough, you just you can just impose your will with pure power.
I don‘t know why you see Japan contrilling this island, chinese maritime surveillance ships have patroled and exercised law enforcements for a long time in this area so clearly they can not seize control of the island, we should push it harder and harder until Japan relinquish any official...
no need to worry about JL2 dude, it is inter-continent SLBM with MIRV, for the purpose of deterring other nuclear powers. I don't think China will wage a nuclear war to against Vietnam.
I see people arguing about Chinese/Japanese nationalist sentiments as an obstacle here. True, both Chinese and Japanese people (and Korean people also) are quite nationlists in general, and it seems like the reason of tensions between East Asian countries(the real reason is China and Japan are...
There is a major misunderstanding about this NEAU thing: IF this union will ever be formed, it will NEVER be China dominate(even though China may be the strongest mumber). A Union stands only on similarity( be it common interests or ideology or culture or whatever), which means no one can ignore...
No bro I majored in industrial economy, but I read books. I'm enthusiastic with European & Japanese culture & mythology & history, especially the Japanese one. I'm always amazed with Japan, a country so much alike yet so much distinct with China, a country experienced love and hatred equally...
What China poses to Japan is more of an opportunity than a threat. Let's face it, the island and maritime dispute have no chance to break a war between two trade booming and economily flourishing neighbours. China has absolute no intention to invade Japan, and I dont think Japan wants to wage a...
Not exactly, F-35 is an USAF and muti-national project from the beginning, yet J-31 is only an AVIC project for now. If J-31cannot attract PLAAF/PLAN support (or any kind of international interest) it may not survive for long. If PLAAF or PLAN decide to go for J-31 then it will be a very good...
I think Russians won't let the Pak-fa project to fail because Su-50 will be their mainstream jet fighter in future too, the only question is if they will honour their promise of technology transfer and fully authorized partnership to India, or they just use it as a bait to lure international...
Actually the WS-10 is much better now(14 ton thrust) and even implemented with FADEC, and the WS-15 will take its first flight in early 2016, maybe we can see it very soon. I think it is a reasonable guess that WS-15 will be integrated onto J-20 in early 2020s which is after 5-7 years flight...
I always see TPP as both a challenge and an opportunity for China. Like I once said on this forum, TPP certainly poses negative impacts in short run, like low-end manufacturing flow out of China (which may jeopardise employment), lower market expectation (which may worse the international...
But if PLA doesn't take J-31 in future, the project may not survive long, then J-20 or some variant will be the only alternate that China can provide.
It is said that the production will start in next year with underpowered engines at first. The WS-15 will be tested for about 4-5 years so the...
I like J-31 airframe better than J-20 personally, but I fear the next gen middle thrust engine J-31 planning to use may take another 5 years or more to mature compared with WS-15. If J-31's engine matures as scheduled, it will definitely be the perfect choice for PAF( with AESA, EODAS, EOTS...
Still not sure. There are debates about J-31 raised in China. Some people argue that J-31 is an AVIC project that try to lure PLAAF, and still a demonstration not a prototype. Clearly J-31 can not matches J-20 in performance but is expected to be economically affordable to earn a place in...
So...if PAF want to go for F-35, why not consider J-20? With 2 extra side weapon bays & larger main weapon bay, similar EOTS & EODAS, similar stealth figure & AESA, super cruise & super maneuverability when equiped with WS-15, compatibility with ammunitions & AWACS that PAF currently possess or...
