Longewala. 'Hindustani air force ne hamare nak par dum kar rakha hai,wo makkhi o ki tara hamare upar bhin bhina rahe hai,hamare adha se jyada tanks barbad ho chuke hai,jaldi madad bhejo warna phiche murna bhi namunkin hai'':lol: Ab ki bar CBU -105 ke sath tauhar.

Ouch.

Jerusalem may have political/human rights significance for arabs and muslim world but this idea muhammad died there is a later fabrication.Jerusalem as far as i know is never mentioned in quran.As for Muhammad's death it only says he passed away after making the journey from the 'sacred mosque'...

US goal is to prevent Taliban from ever returning to power ,and ever being able to turn it into a terrorist launchpad again.For that purpose they can spend a few billion dollars on a few thousand troops and couple of squadrons and drones very easily.US would ideally like to wipe out taliban ,but...

Farah city attack was busted with air support and taliban had hundreds killed.Taliban only managed to take kunduz for a while and were then driven out.All major cities like kabul,kandahar,herat,mazar sharif are under govt. control.

Why let them enter at all?If you don't let them enter you won't have to resort to these type of disturbing actions with children.

313,000 are not combat troops.They have 150,000 to 200,000 actual ground troops and a few thousand NATO troops to stiffen them.To garrison afg they need 500,000 which they won't have.Thats a no. bigger than whole us army.Neither can taliban do much except guerilla and terror attacks.Minute they...

The cost is not really much for an economy as strong as the american. Soviets deployed only 1 army(40th) in afghanistan -never more than 125,000 men or so.So no even though they did have more men they never used them in afghanistan .They only used t-55s and t-62s in afg,latest soviet tanks like...

Not really.US can keep this up indefinitely,they have a few troops and advisors there,not really costly.Their main punch comes from drones and airpower which is unchallenged.They can keep this level of presence forever if they want to.

Neither will they win.Taliban are helpless ,they can't take any major urban areas - moment they try conventional battle they will be massacred from air.So they contend themselves with guerilla attacks.NATO to win needs to deploy 500,000 troops but has never reached such troop levels.This is the...

Byzantium was a dusty small trading outpost before Constantine,so there is no questioning that constantinopole and later istanbul as a city is a product of the roman empire,just like most european cities.Today both Rome and Istanbul are still important but not as important as say some the...

Rome is the most influential because without rome there would be no istanbul.Also Rome is still very influential as it is the heart of catholicism.The papacy might be a joke in the anglo-saxon west,but not in latin america,italy,spain and africa.

Production numbers are very impressive.Congratz.I envy type 55.:tup:

Beautiful stadiums.:tup:

Whats the point?Either you have big trade like ASEAN which they don't - miniscule compared to trade with west,or capture its market or have strategic purposes,otherwise its just photo op.Turkey would have been really powerful if it could have somehow become leader of balkan confederation or...

Nonsense,germany is the engine of europe and will remain so.They are not politically that influential out of CHOICE.Its best not to wake the eagle.If the germans wanted to rebuild their military machine they could do it in 5-10 years.They don't because of lack of popular or political will and...

Israel doesn't really give a shit about turkey or any nation except america.If USA expelled their ambassador ,only that would get israel worried.Otherwise they know no one else can stop them.This isolation thing i've been hearing for a decade,its a fantasy.Israeli economy and exports are...

Agreed on the jags.I believe the jags are intended to be used as standalone low level penetration fighters against pak and thats why asraam and aesa was added.Plus radar is common with tejas. Not even close on chinese electronics being on par with european. J20 doesn't have rear stealth,canards...

Stealth is only crucial if its all aspect,a half stealthy fighter is too unreliable for the massive price tag it comes with.Because it can't enter deep into enemy territory without its exposed rear getting detected by ground radars.PAF doesn't have money for AESAs on large numbers of...

Massive game changer if true.This would allow tejas to potentially deal with any non-5th gen (or 5th gen after discovery) aircraft in defensive role.Hopefully its true because meteor will be unmatched in the subcontinent.
