Dear god, who cares? It's just a barren rock.

Growth in infrastructure and cities has been incredible over there. Do you live in a megacity, and if so how do you find life there? Would you say it is overcrowded? Living in a city of "only" 1 million , I can't imagine how life must be in one. Have you used any of the new high speed rail...

Damn the Midway's ugly.

Good. Calling it the Shi Lang would have a been a little insensitive. Anyway, congratulations, China. A more multipolar world is a good thing, but please at least stop propping up Kim Jong Un's dystopia.

RD and Fluttershy aren't bad either... ;)

I guess it'll be a party in the IIA

I thought this was about the late and lamented Avro Arrow...

In the beginning I didn't get a bloody kids show having a teenage audience either. Eventually the community lured me in, and after seeing an episode or two I was hooked. What other kids show has a fan-created 2d fighter based on it? I'd advise any anti-bronies to check out an episode, if just...

My condolences. I'm sure he would have wanted you to remember all the good times you had together.

I don't think this is a good idea. Better stick to infantry fighting vehicles and heavier tanks. It looks like it'll be easy to take out with a cheap RPG.

India's major problem is that it lacks major [private defense contractors and has to turn every indigenous military project over to DRDO, HAL or its inefficient shipyards, which are both inefficient as a government agencies and simply lack the funding and experience to develop projects on time...

Bronies, report in! This thread is for all lovers of friendship, magic and Pinkie Pie.

The Yamatos were badly designed and overweight (one rudder for a 70,000 ton vessel?). The Iowa class's 16 inch guns had similar performance to to the Yamato's 18 inchers, the ships themselves were several knots faster (vital for carrier group operations), had FAR better anti-aircraft armament...

Bulgaria's problem is population shrinkage, not growth. Since the late '80s, our poplation has gone down from nearly 9 to 7.5 million due to low birth rates and mass emigration. The global population explosion is a very serious problem, but it can be controlled without resorting to extreme...

They do it, so we can too! India is a democracy and needs to follow its ideals internationally as well as domestically. So does the United States, in fact. I recognise that idealists don't get far in foreign policy and some form of moderation is needed , but at least try to be better than...

The non-aligned movement are rebels without a cause after the Cold War, surely? Though Iran's nuclear program isn't really an Indian concern, you still shouldn't be cosying up to the Iranians. They're not exactly a pleasant regime and allying with oppressive dictatorships for their natural...

The one-child policy is disgusting and tramples on one of our most fundamental freedoms. The way to reduce population growth is family planning, education and economic growth, not forcing the state into the bedrooms of the nation. It's only a small leap from banning second children to...

Clegg won't allow it, if he has any spine left. Most likely this is just posturing for Tory backbenchers and to keep UKIP down.

I'm all in favor of India modernizing its military and expanding its global rich, but you really are trying to do too much too fast, especially with the Air Force (C-17s, C-130s, Apaches, Rafales, Su-30s, Hawks, Dhruvs, LCHs and Tejases all at once?). Your defence budget far exceeds spending on...

Can't you just formalize the LOC? It's obvious both sides won't give up an inch.
