So does India replace China or the United States? Third maybe, especially if the Russian economy tanks any more (among other factors like brain-drain, misguided acquisitions programs, etc.), but second or first? Not likely with the state of the US and Chinese militarys and their continued...

Germany above Japan? Germany, who uses broom-handles in-place of machine guns, a country who can't fund its military: Germany 'Can't Explain' Use of Broomsticks Instead of Guns in NATO Exercise German military to stop using gun 'that can't shoot straight when hot' | World news | The Guardian...

Chaff interference. Seems you were right:yahoo:. It isn't so easy to detect a B-52 if it's trying not to be seen. I hope people stop arguing about this now. More on the B-52 in Vietnam, for anyone interested: Vietnam National Musée of History/Nouvelles

It's a disputed figure, so we'll have to agree to disagree - one that includes total loses, not just by SAM. But the premise is the same, the SAMs weren't too effective against a B-52 operating in an ECM heavy environment.

The USAF made some mistakes that the NVA could capitalize on, similar to the downing of an F-117 in Serbia - they flew the same routes too often. Do that too many times and the enemy just plops defense in your way. Of course when they fire massive quantities, jamming equipment isn't working...

:lol: You and me both:azn:. Wow! And thanks, I knew about some of the systems, like the UH-1s, but a nuclear reactor too:o:. Wow! That's a serious spoil of war. Any updates on potential P-3 sales? It was reported last year, around September, that the US was interested in selling the surplus...

Was the B-52 flown near China operating under combat conditions? It likely wasn't broadcasting EM countermeasures - this is the point @BoQ77 is trying to make. Detecting a non-evasive aircraft that wants to be detected - since it's making a statement, is far different from trying to locate a...

This:partay:: @BoQ77 the OP mentions spare parts for captured or left behind US equipment? What US gear does Vietnam use and needs repairs? And is there any chance Vietnam would be interested in an LCS type ship (Freedom class), perhaps an up-gunned version, as is being proposed to the USN...

How the Crazy Cost of NYC and Bay Area Housing Hurts the US Economy The cost of housing in New York and San Francisco has long since transcended into the realm of absurdity. But all those quaint, astronomically pricey brownstones and single family homes are part of a healthy national economy...

Army? I'm trying to get a hold on people military experience. So far I know @gambit is air force, @SvenSvensonov is Navy, Gambit mentioned the US presence on PDF needed a Marine so I'm assuming you are the Army guy? I served in the Royal Norwegian Air Force - Search and Rescue. Rotary-wing...
