    'Israel will regret attacking Iran'

    America may supply Israel with weapons but it is the Israeli soldier who defeated the past Arab armies. Who were far bigger and better armed. And America will continue to support Israel.

    'Muslim nations firm in halting Israel'

    you will be waiting a long time. the U.S. has been in much worse financial shape in it's history and we are still here. during the depression unemployment was around 25% and U.S. debt = 100% of GDP.

    Which laptop do you use?

    I currently have a Dell lattitude E6420 which has been very reliable. This week though I will get to test drive a E4200 with a solid state hard drive. It is smaller with a 13.1" screen and external DVD drive. I plan on ditching the DVD drive and relying on thumb drives instead. This will make it...

    Russia aborts T-50 PAK-FA stealth fighter takeoff

    I highly doubt the program is in jeopardy. Also the first F-22 prototype cashed as well. The pilot was simply playing it smart.

    Assad says he will not leave

    I think it would have to be Turkey with the support of Arab League to take him out. They are Muslim and have the military capability. And Iran will think twice about going directly agianst them. For any other country Syria and it's allies will "cry crusader invasion".

    FGFA / PAK-FA (T-50) Vs F-35 JSF

    Yes I see the differences on each. And both are being used for similar purposes. I am simply saying if it is based on the OLS-30, 35family of IRST systems. The DAS - EOTS combo is a much better capability that will give the F-35 An edge many here refuse to acknowledge. As far as the PAK-FA...

    FGFA / PAK-FA (T-50) Vs F-35 JSF

    according to Janes defense it is derived from the OLS-35 but possibly the OLS-50M model. One way or another though it is derived from the same technology and not even close to the same capability of the DAS on the F-35. UOMZ OLS-35 (Russian Federation) - Jane's Electro-Optic Systems "First...

    FGFA / PAK-FA (T-50) Vs F-35 JSF

    the Russians have stated that the UOMZ OLS-35 will be installed on the T-50. It is the same system the Su-35 uses.

    FGFA / PAK-FA (T-50) Vs F-35 JSF

    the I believe he is talking about thrust vectoring missiles similar to what the AIM-9X is. The F-35 uses the AIM-9X coupled with the Distributed Aperture System. Which the T-50 does not have.

    Syria using Iranian snipers as violent crackdown continues

    If Turkey decides to act on Syria. Iran will not do jack. Iran is like many of it's fanboys here.......full of bluster! It won't do anything except make threats. Turkey is not a country Iran will want to mess with.

    Exam-cheating scandal hits US Navy Submarine Fleet

    There isn't much of what China calls home grown that isn't copied or flat out pirated. Especially in the defense sector.

    Pakistan gave China access to 'stealth' chopper from Bin Laden raid: Report

    lol, Helicopters are not shipped using shipping containers. and they definitely are not shipped through Pakistan. They are loaded onto aircraft and transported directly to Afghanistan.

    First Russian strike UAV to be showcased at Moscow air show

    Looking at a picture of it I doubt Israel is involved in this one. It looks more home grown.
