I'm not suggesting anything. We know that the original rockets were HE armed for several reasons. 1) They were having problems with the warhead designs. 2) The nukes were and still are under civilain control, not military. 3) Accuracy sucked. Odds were that they would have missed Moscow all...

No, the US did not apologize. The US expressed regrets over the incident. If you want to say that the intent was to apologize, you may have a point but no apology was ever given. YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!!!! You've got an American spy plane at a secret Chinese airbase (all right, all...

You should really learn to read. I've said the Mongolian exercises with the 38 and 39 Group Armies. Hehehehehahahahahaha. Thanks for the laugh. It was a Russian designed exercise. And I know far more about Russian/Chinese exercises than you. It's a dog and pony show for show but they've also...

Funny! I'm the MODERATOR at CDF. LCol. W Yu. Well, there goes the rest of your arguements.

The $75bil figure is not PPP.

No, I'm not talking out of ignorance. I'm talking through the exercises we've observed in Mongolia with the 38 and 39 Group Armies. Nowhere near what we saw with 3-7Cav against the Medina Division. I'm talking about the Sino-Russian exercises. Best way to see capabilities, watch how they train...

That is simply a whole bunch of hogwash. The Type-99 tank is extremely inferior in terms of armour, fire control, and C4ISR. They're not even in the same weight class. If this is your arguement, then it falls flat down. I rather than a battalion of M1A2SEPs over a division of Type-99 anyday...

And again, PPP does not work for US and China. Hell, it does not even work for China and Japan

I know. The $75bil to $400bil+ comparison is valid. Pure and simple.

$7tril PPP dollars ain't going to buy squat.

That's how you read it? FYI, the crew completed their OPSEC procedures before they surrendered the plane. The Chinese learned nothing. As for cutting up the plane, what did you expect? The thing barely landed. It had to be taken apart to be repaired. The Chinese demanded an apology...

It was 2nd Artillery Force IRBMs aimed at European USSR. It did not work as intended as it scared the Soviets enough to almost execute a nuke strike supported armour thrust towards Lop Nor. Only American disapproval swayed the Soviets from carrying out their plans.

Let me get this straight? Are you saying that China gets the same benefit out of $75bil that the US gets out of $400bil+?

They have neither. The decision to declare Independence or not is Taiwan's choice; not the Mainland. And that 100 miles of water is still an obstacle which you have yet to show that they can breach successfully. What costs. Both Jay and I have refuted every one of your assertion that the...

PPP again. It doesn't work. Look, I don't care how much you pay your soldiers or engineers, machines and fuels costs the same no matter if it's in China or the US. You may pay your people less but that does not mean you have more money to spend. And it's not just this year. It's accumlative...

PLA Air Force Operation and Modernization

Then, you know the limits to apply COPE INDIA to the real world. Poor choice of words but then I've never been known to skirt around an issue. LMAO! I've been accused of being a gentlemen but never an adult. This old wardog talks blunt. It avoids misunderstandings. Not in one single...

As for COPE INDIA, the lesson was re-enforced. He who sees first, shoots first, dies last. For whatever reason (both deliberate and accidental), the InAF saw the USAF first and hence the result. This was tried in a myraid of ways both from advantage and disadvantage of position, the USAF saw...

Tons of them http://www.google.ca/search?q=Ken+Allen+PLAAF&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official Col Allen is the authority on the PLAAF. Since you spouted some knowledge concerning the PLA, I assume you know who he was. I don't have to mention what John...

I did answer it but apparently, you don't know who Colonel Ken Allen is. I suggest you revisit COPE INDIA and skip the hype. There's ALOT to be learned but not what you think. Since we're talking the Chinese here, you want to tell me the 1st time the Chinese sent up a total strike package...
