T-72 could'nt damage a type 99 at point blank firing during test, but a RPG-29 could????

Now I know why the Chinese support Vietnam during the Vietnam war. They didnt want share to share the oil in SCS with any western countries. Only problem is, the US was never after Vietnam 's resource or territories. I wonder who "won" the Vietnam war and was it worth it. Strange that the...

I thought America was the real imperialist not China. I don't know what is worse for the Vietnamese people, the leadership(party, generals)that left Vietnam in this predicament or China. So sad. So many lives are lost in the Vietnam war only to find out that your real enemy is the bully from...

China has started moving a second rig into the SCS. I thought they would remove the first rig in August, now they adding a second rig. This is what I predicted in my earlier post. China is pushing Vietnam to make concession by adding so many rigs so soon.

Question to Vietnam: Now that N.Korea has made/copy of the Kh-35 anti-ship missile, do you think they will the missile 's engine technology to Vietnam. I know Russia transfer technology for the Kh-35 to Vietnam without the engine technology. Or maybe, Russia will sell this technology to...

I hope Vietnam learn from this episode and start their nuclear weapon program right program right away. Because, the next time (there will be more )they won't be so lucky. With the North Korea help ($$) Vietnam can have a nuclear weapon in less than 10 years. Vietnam should not worry...

The drill you are talking about, has to do with search and rescue at sea, nothing military about that as no weapon were involved. Its a pretty useful exercise, after the enemies have sunken your ships and you need to save your sailors. Ho chi minh was quoted as saying that he rather kiss an...

Since the Vietnam war, I dont recall Vietnam participating in any military exercises with any countries. China, on the other hand have participated in countless military exercise with western countries. Discounting military hardware, China has more experience than Vietnam in naval warfare...

What is Vietnam thinking? China and the US is participating in military exercise called "Rimpac" and the least Vietnam could do is have her own military exercise. No, Vietnam decides to have a party. How can Vietnam expect other nations to voice their support for Vietnam if it is too busy...

Imagine if China buys Damen ,then they would have more reasons for ramming Vietnamese CG ships.

Just more punching bags for the Chinese that's all. Damen is making a fortune, wish I own their stocks.

I like the Hanoi 's peaceful methods of settling dispute. Remind me of India's Gandhi and his nonviolence struggle against British colonial rule. I wished Hanoi had implement this peaceful policy against the American during the Vietnam War then there would be on casualty on either sides. The...

nice buildings. How close is Hanoi from the Chinese border?

I am talking about gas deposits as Exxon Mobil discovered them near where the rig is now. What happen to the joint Vietnam-Exxon Mobil effort to develop that gas field. According to some sources, Beijing talked Exxon into walking away from the deal.

International experts are now saying that China is most likely to find gas deposit in the SCS, given that her rig is close by the area where Exon discovered gas deposit in 2011 & 2012. At that point war b/t China and Vietnam is unavoidable b/c Vietnam will never let China pump the gas out...

The monsoon season starts in August and the SC sea can be a rough place for any ships. What happen if China cant find oil by then? China 's excursion was meant to draw the Vietnamese navy into a conflict near the Paracels Island, where they have an advantage of being close to their base...

Everyone know that the best time to tackle a problem is when it is still small, and no doubts China view Vietnam as a small problem that can be big problem in the future. China has the right to feel this for the following reasons: By 2016, Vietnam will have six submarines, Sigma frigates, T-90...

I don't know if Vietnam realizes this, but no matter how many weapons Vietnam buy, China is always one step ahead of Vietnam with more and better weapons. There are no weapons that Vietnam that currently possesses that threaten China. Even if there is a war, a loss of six submarine and ten...

I would have thought that since the battle at Johnson Reef in 1998, that Vietnam would have created some sort of deterrence against China such as nuclear weapon or alliances with strong countries (not Russia or India). Its a pity that Vietnamese sailors died at the Johnson Reef battle in vain...
