Better media links help China, India

indian military is like Qing Dynasty's Beiyang Navy. looks good on paper but is in reality very weak because even though its weapons were superior, they were purchased from Germany and not self made. Japan was projected to lose the war terribly to China but in reality won, in this case India is not even projected to win.

a war between China and India as of this moment would have the only result that india will be negotiating for peace within a few weeks, but with a few thousand less soldiers and tanks.

Superficial analogy at best - messed up on one basic historical fact - the Japanese fleet of 1894 was no less purchased or "foreign" than the Manchu fleet ...

Why don't you agitate for a "big one" so we can all find out?

the Manchus government were plagued with corruption and incompetence while the jap of that time focus on modernization and efficient government, read up on it, you'll see things like the guns for battle ships being sold on black market for profit rather than delivered to the military and shells being filled with sand rather than gunpowder, and partly due to this corruption soldiers sometimes didnt train for months while the jap were efficient and had a clear goal thus far more powerful military overall
