True, i'll update my original statement to without an "internal failure, no one is taking anything from russia." that said. the soviets fell because of a myriad of reasons. one of the biggest is the public's lost of faith in the communist system following years of corruption, economic...

thats stupid. china will absolutely intervene if it deems a situation as posing a major security risk to itself. it did so in korea, it did so in vietnam and it did so against india. Pelosi visit to taiwan did not affect the security situation around Taiwan, if anything, it altered things in...

global coverage. better accuracy in asia(more sat coverage) and extra good accuracy inside china(ground station help)

how so? i mean it made it all the way into the plane when it wasnt suppose to... and such tracing isnt even impressive, i worked in supply chain, buying/planning . country of origin for your materials and goods is pretty basic stuff.

no, china has made no such point, it merely refuses to be a us poodle and sanction nations just because the US said so, the only legitimate sanction are UN ones in china's eyes. it has not expended national wealth propping them up in any notifble scale like the us and soviet would do for their...

im not pretending anything. i said NK only survives and has china's support because china itself is threatened otherwise. you know, the whole part where the us was pushing to the yalu and macarthur wanting to invade and later openly wanting to nuke china? or is your argument that china has no...

??? those are about as "chinese created" as the US or Canada is. china did not force NK to be a dystopian communist-but-also-monarchy nation. china has consistently suggested that NK open up like china did and unlike the us, china left korea as soon as the korean war was over and does not...

they are light and provide extra firepower from the ground. in a counterinsurgency scenario, imagine your urban outpost got surrounded and ambushed, the closest fire team is hours away and you can't just drone strike everything because of collateral damage. command could airlift these robo-dogs...

these arent inservice things, its more like a brainstorm session in testing out what these technologies, once matured, could potentially bring to the battlefield in the future. that said, its military gear, there would be some hardening and waterproofing, so "pissing on it" is not going to...

you're nitpicking too much. by your standards, we might as well say the us depends on china for the f-22 and f-35 since those contain chinese parts such as bolts , screws, naked PCBs and such. fact is, if china was warped into a universe by itself it would still be able to continue making...

and thats the only thing indian that scares china. millions of indian POWs

the indian border is mountainous and extremely difficult to operate in. its a front but a small one, you'll never see millions of men fighting it out there. as such, it'll never present a major threat. a real actually useful second front would look like france/russia against germany. or...

no way any theoretical pakistan variant of the j-35 would be anything like the jf-17. the jf-17 program is shared, with pakistan having basically full rights to the jet and do modifications as you please, with any exports in a profit sharing arrangement with a good amount of production able to...

because my parents had sex and my mother got pregnant. you need more sex education or what? like i said "how brainwashed or brain dead do you have to be to believe it?"

doubtful. its not like rare earths are only in china and a couple other places. the us itself has significant deposits along with allies like Australia. they just dont mine much. its just that its kind of polluting and china holds most of the refining tech and mass production savings.

why does this thread even exist? China has been making guns for many decades. a whole bunch has be exported all over, even to the us and canada. and you think the PLA accepted a rifle into the army that shoots rounds that tumble less than 100 meters away? and that this wasnt on purpose but is...

thats literally a trailer in a trailer park dude. and its like 67k, that 1k is rent price.

no ones wants a nuclear war, and china certainly has zero wish to even try to occupy any indian city. that said, you think far too highly of india, Do we know how hard it is to push in the mountains? maybe not, people on the internet probably has no real idea. but china, and the PLA certainly...

they said its a heart attack, no indications of any foul play.

for the record, the us does not have a defensive treaty with Ukraine or taiwan, it is under no legal obligation to defend either. also, no it is not possible to have an alliance with both russia and us. you can be friendly-ish with both but actual alliance, no chance in hell.
