how many people live in delhi and between it and the border? how much food, ammo, fuel do you thing the mechanized forces of the Chinese Western Theatre Command use a day??
that command it self would be the primary command for this operation. it is made up of 2 group armies and 2 military...
those same 1000 did the same to Pakistan.
that was a Different India and a Different Pakistan.
today it would take millions of soldiers to hold India. and the logistics would be near impossible. same is true of Pakistan.
hell the British did what i outlined. they had the different groups...
how would china provide logistics deep into India. not only would they have to cross the mountains. but once they got into india it self. it would mean long supply routes. with a lot of support logistical bases. that them self would need security and QRFs 24/7. those long long routes in india...
it is always easier defeating a nations military & Government. it is another thing to try and hold and conquer a nation. Neither China, India or Pakistan combined could hold India for long. and the cost in both money, soldiers and huge numbers of civilians lost will not be worth it.
a war and...
China can't really be in a long term alliance with Russia. Because Russia is really just putin. in a decade or more he will be dead or way to old. There will be some major changes in Russia when that happens. like Putin's current wealth is est at $200B. who ever follows putins not going to let...
the harpoon is a great ground base missile for Taiwan. this will give them the ability to sink Chinese LPDs, LST, LSM and civilian ships pressed into troops and supply duty in a future war vs Taiwan.
terrain and distance matter. china would have to do a amphibious and Air dropped to invade...
China needs alliances in different regions that can match the USA's Alliances. the combined might of NATO, Japan, ROK, Australia, NZ & Taiwan is greater then China, Russia & NK combined. hence why you see Putin trying his best to break NATO up.
as far as equipment the need to match the USA
1...
what i mean. is NATO nations for the most parts are only spending like 1 to less then 2% of their GDP on Defense. while most of them spends up wards of 20% of their GDP on Social programs.
the USA is spending 3.4% of it GDP on Defense. yet spent in 2019
$1 Trillion on just social Security...
and that how we know everything in the parade is fake.
3500kg and can hit anywhere in the USA.
no wonder Trump and Kim like each other. they are both such liars. LOL
those tanks looks fake. it looks like a T62 with add on Cardboard. It even has the same 115mm Gun tube and driver side on the left side. with the exact same driver hatch and periscopes . the body armor on the troops is to thin to hold medium plates. much less large ones. so unless they created...

with it already fielding and training it 2nd ABCT now. and will by this time Next year have 3 more ABCTs fully equipped and trained on the New tank.
with a goal of...
figaro you are correct. that why the US came up with the way to store power. because of high power Demand the EMALS uses. it is hard for me to believe a conventional engine can provide the power a nuclear can't.
well if the ship is already laid down and it doesn't have a EMALS already then it is not. because you redesign the ship to install it and or take the Steam system out. that why Nimitz class ships don't have it. because you would have to take the steam system out and then install a EMALS. that is...
