And if they decide to accept the casualties and push on? You've just wasted a nuke.
The threshold has already been crossed. You nuked them.
Pakistan and India can't destroy each other's military PERIOD. You don't have the C4ISR, the accuracy, nor the nukes. ALL your nukes are city...
It means that hitting the lines ain't going to do squat. At the Fulda Gap, where we had nukes in the 1000s, they're restricted for airfields, assembly areas, and div and corps level HQs. You smash the shaft of the spear, not the tip.
You really believe that they won't nuke your divisions...
So, you waste 20-30 battalions in individual engagements. How many more battalions does Indian have?
You believe in limited nuclear exchange then. *** rolling my eyes ***
That's strategic, not tactical.
Everyone outside of Pakistan consider those sub-kiloton claims to be just a red herring covering up dud nukes that failed to initiate.
This being said, Pakistan doesn't have tac nukes. It doesn't make sense for them to have them. Even taking the largest claims of 100 nukes, wasting a nuke in...
The "art" in martial arts was borned in India. As far as fighting style is concerned, it was borned in Africa where human beings 1st appeared where man 1st learned to smack each other.
The article misquotes. It was a high tech "condition" exercise. The PLA doesn't have the myrid of toys we have...
It's very nice of you to say this ... but my wife just read this ... doesn't look like my dog is going back into her house anytime soon.
That is very kind of you, a well respected officer and gentleman also if I may, to say so, Sir. Funny that my wife doesn't mind a respected officer gives me...
To the point of nausea. Don't ask me to point them out. I ain't about going to look for torture. My wife for the past hour has kept asking me "does this look cute? Oh, this would look so good on her. We've got to get her these shoes ..."
You mean your profession is not accurate? Like everybody else on the planet. You work your 15 hour days (including home and cooking and cleaning and putting #1 Daughter to sleep), you have little energy left to look into things that are of no interest to you.
My wife is looking on the...
General Shinseki is the only one I think who testified before Congress about the need for large occupation forces. About 12 other generals spoke out after they retired/resigned that they requested larger occupation forces, among them, the former SECSTATE General Powell.
The other Generals in...
No, although a Canadian company group defended the place before DUTCHBAT took over. As for the incident in question, I scared the p!ss and crap out of the kid before handing him over to the Muslim police (under the watchful eye of the UN police). I don't think he had clean underwear for a month.
A Rahman, observe the difference between an amateur and a professional.
Thunder, if you those are your only good points, then get a B-52. If speed is also your requirement, then get a Backfire.
What you have been missing ... and all amateurs have been missing ... is how the F-35 FITS into...
There is no doubt that the Brits went overboard ... However, the incidents happenned on THEIR side of the line. You HAVE TO BE THE AUTHORITY on your side of the line. In one incident, I was so pissed off of a kid taking shots at my AEV that I walked up past HIS side of the line , grabbed his...
I have absolutely no idea where you get your eval but suffice to say I ain't hiring you anytime soon.
As far as this article is concerned, it's an Israeli wish list (though they might get it after the Lebanon debacle). Israel is not not even a Tier 3 country which means they might get it 20...
