most of the indian subcontinents water comes from the monsoons. snow melt from tibet is only a small part of the total qty of water that flows in the rivers of india and pakistan. any effect of chinese dams on downstream nations is minor.

to give you ungrateful ingrates a face-saving chance and cool chinese citizens demand for war over a 3 iq, individual, hothead indian commander's agressions. it is lucky for india that china has far bigger fish to fry for now than to run over your sorry excuse for a military.

the real reason is the decline of the soviet union, and thus the US had reduced need for china to fight the soviets. (zero need after 1991) relations would again improve later because the chinese, turns out, is really good at making things for cheap, so in the interest of businesses, things...

no they didnt. they said taiwan is a security concern to japan(in the context of a PRC invasion). however there is no signed agreement to defend the island or any defence treaty. like the US, japan wants to use ambiguity, also known as all talk and no action. when war happens, like the us, there...

nobody thinks about india at all in any important context, while a chinese diplomat saying shut up makes world wide news.

indeed, overkill is not really useful when we're talking about nuclear war. I think 1000 with modern delivery method/equipment is fine as well

SIPRI is just an estimate using publicly available sources. simply put, only the chinese government knows what the actual number of nukes china has. everyone else just guesses, and as a member of the P5 with domestic tech and sources of uranium, china is not obligated to show anyone anything nor...

china does compromise with reasonable countries. examples include border negotiations with Russia, Tajikistan even vietnam land borders. in fact all chinese land borders were solved via negotiations except for india and indian puppet of Butan . and technically RoC aka taiwan which claims all of...

gotta start somewhere. nothing wrong with trying to make your own helicopter for mars after nasa made theirs and flew it. if you cant make something after someone else as made it then we would all still be stuck on at the stone ages. plus china is now working/planning on kilometer scale space...

china still operates those 24 blackhawks from the 80s. they've been fine helicopters and china might actually be interested in getting the ones off the taliban, not because they need any tech from it but because it would be useful as spare parts for the ones they still operate.

not much to share atm. it supposedly is going to be close to 5000t instead of 054A's 4000t and feature longer range, improved ASW suite, possibly a new 100 main gun. some kind of new more integrated mast design, potentially mini-PAR like on the 052D(take this last point with a lot of salt...
