    China testing hypersonic weapon with intercontinental range, says USNORTHCOM commander

    The key word here is intercontinental. This is basically the Chinese Avangard, i.e. an ICBM-boosted HGV traveling at Mach 20+. There is no defense against such a weapon. RF countermeasures such as jamming or even theoretical high-power microwave weapons won't work because they require line of...

    U.S. mulls cutting Huawei off from global chip suppliers, with TSMC in crosshairs

    Funny you should mention penicillin because... China produces and exports a large amount of pharmaceuticals to the U.S., including 97 percent of all antibiotics and 80 percent of the active ingredients used to make drugs here. Penicillin, ibuprofen, and aspirin largely come from China...

    Top US officials fly around pitting countries against China. Where is our foreign office????????????

    Facts > unsubstantiated opinions and anecdotes. :) Russians stand out for having the most positive view of China across all countries surveyed (71% favorable). A majority in Ukraine, too, share these views (57%). Majorities or pluralities in almost all the Middle Eastern, Latin American and...

    China has world's second-largest arms industry, think tank estimates

    China can build F-35s too...minus the pilot. By 2035, manned aircraft like F-35 might become yesterday's technology.

    China has world's second-largest arms industry, think tank estimates

    China has 20 AESA destroyers commissioned RIGHT NOW. Another 16 AESA destroyers launched RIGHT NOW. USA has ZERO Arleigh Burke Flight III launched. Nothing commissioned. If you want to be generous, you can say USA has 2 Zumwalt-class destroyers commissioned. But both those ships are missing...

    Sleeping dragon no more: China about to replace US as strongest naval power and Washington is too la

    Massive JTIDS Class 1 terminals weighed six hundred pounds and filled an entire equipment rack in the KC-135/Boeing 707 aircraft used for AWACS. These were available by the 70s and 80s. But we have some people on this forum that believe China can't install a Link 16 equivalent data link...

    Sleeping dragon no more: China about to replace US as strongest naval power and Washington is too la

    Also let me state the obvious. Without the existence of stable robust data links no UAV mission can be performed. Explain to me how these Chinese high-end drones can even function without line-of-sight data link (probably in C-band) and Ku-band SATCOM? Keep in mind drone takeoff and landing...
