2 regiments of J-10 to enforce UN No Fly Zone Over Libya

[razgriz19]

Then what do they call a "regiment" ???

i meant they use the TERM regiment instead of a squadron!

Can anyone confirm this to be true?

China should be HELPING Qaddafi (even though he wasn't really pro-China) instead of helping NATO's invasion of Libya.

i call BS until this is confirmed to be true

Wow people are still treating this seriously? Check the date of the thread please. If you can't figure that one out, at least consider the Vice Premier of State Council does not have the power to deploy military.

Ok kewl..

Now dont say you call a fighter ... an artillery gun or Tank

We call them stuff like Dark Sabre, Flying Shark, Black Eagles etc

China does not celebrate April Fool's Day, but Chinese people do. They also celebrate X'mas nowadays.

Because most members here are non-Westerners who have never heard of April Fool.

Regiments??? Is nt squadron the right term???

A regiment is not the equivalent of a squadron; instead, it's intermediate between squadron & group/wing. That's because Soviet-style suqadrons tend to have fewer aircrafts than Western ones. Thus, a PLAAF regiment would consist of 2~3 squadrons of 10~12 aircrafts each.
