In air-defense only! The type 45 destroyers PAAMS system undoubtedly makes it the most powerful and capable air-defense destroyer in the world. She also features extremely high performance engines which give it speed and maneuverability unlike any destroyer I have seen for its size. The Aster...

Yeah, 40% of the worlds poverty stricken and malnourished live in India. 5,000 children under the age of five die of starvation every day in India. And approximately 600,000,000 Indians live below the global poverty line, riddled with disease and starvation. But sure, as long as they are "free"...

Indeed, the British Government should in do more to help those who return from war zones. Post Traumatic Distress Disorder is the most common cause of suicides among soldiers. The realities of war are often too much to cope with. However, I understand that the British do already have an...

Not really fretting about it. On the contrary, I was emphasizing that even a rising power like China with a huge military (that many consider to be the second most powerful on earth) still cannot compete with the "declining powers" like France at range. France and the UK are both major...

Totally agree on that last point, and indeed your post over-all. Thank you. However, I feel you are slightly underestimating the advantage of French air-power. While China probably is "capable at present of sending a more powerful SAG than france" it would only at a stretch be "more powerful" in...

AEGIS is technically a "PESA". So a AESA isn't necessarily a must. That being said AESA tend to have significant advantages over the former. The Indian system for its P-15A and B destroyers isn't looking like a world class system like AEGIS or PAAMS if im honest. But it will still be highly...

Yes this is true. Only 2 of the 4 AEGIS illuminating dishes are active at anyone time -so by saturating one side, AEGIS will effectively be defenseless on the other. However on a 1v1 scenario this isn't likely to happen. AEGIS will 9 times out of 10 be operating as part of a battle group and...

Yes Neuron. Not a fan of it to be honest. Initial specifications are not too impressive. X 47B is overall the most mature design, however the BAE Taranis has a "classified supersonic speed", beating the high subsonic speed of the X 47B and Dassaults nEUROn. But they are all technology...

Excellent display of military technology and a sign of things to come indeed. Any word on the British BAE Taranis yet? Last I heard it was ready for its first official test fights down in Australia. USA, Britain and France are clearly leading the way in UCAV technology. Asia still has a long...

I was laughed at? No sir, I am confident in the awareness that the Indians attempts to laugh off my comments were merely a "guise" to mask their pathetic inferiority complex when it comes to China. I laugh at this perpetual Indian semblance. Yet at the same time it is truly sad to watch.

What, China's one child policy as opposed to 5,000 children under the age of 5 years old dying every day in India? (cannot post link, Google it). Lol, India is pathetic. Perhaps the Chinese conquest of India will be liberation for 600 million starving Indians. Oh, but you think its OK to starve...

Because I need a good laugh. Do I need another?

No conflicting interests?! :omghaha: It is sad to see all the Indians desperately trying to explain why China and India will not go to war. The Indians know that if both of these countries go to war - then India will lose, and lose badly. This then means that the Indians will no-longer be able...

So, PLAGF troops walked 20 kms into Indian territory, set up camp for 3 weeks and India did NOTHING?! :rofl: This is an obvious display of cowardice on behalf of India. The Chinese know they can violate Indian territory because India is too weak to respond. Buddy, it is inevitable a war will...

So now I need to earn "street cred" before I can call you out on your bullshit? Where is the logic? I don't need to act smart when dealing with folk like you. Perhaps you should stop leeching off the UK and go back to almighty Bangladesh! :rofl:

I agree strongly with your comment regarding how the USA and the major European powers will not surrender their current superiority quietly. I am of the opinion that at some stage in the future the scales will be balanced and the rising Asian behemoths (China and India) will be neutered...

Your from Bangladesh yet live in the UK. If the UK is done for then why not move back to Bangladesh? Doubt the UK is done for, it will continue to have high living standards and a comparatively large economy for its small population. Most long-term economic forecasts place the UK as the 2nd/3rd...

The perpetual mentality of the internet kit fan-boy - that of basing lists on purely numerical terms! :hitwall: Why are the strategic capabilities and other elements never taken into account? Most top 10 or top 5 naval lists are largely based on numbers. Almost always, such lists would place a...

" ...while conventionals utlise preplanned ambush positions due to inferior sonar power and speed compared to SSNs but comparitively higher "stealth"... " I don't necessarily agree that SSKs are more silent ("stealth") than SSNs. This myth largely came about during the time when the latest SSNs...

Both AEGIS and the UK/French PAAMS are designed to counter "saturated attacks" of high performance, supersonic anti-ship missiles and aircraft. No Soviet missile would penetrate the defense systems of ANY AEGIS or PAAMS equipped warship. I would put PAAMS slightly above AEGIS in terms of...
