let me just remind you: our economy is 4 times as big as yours, our military spending is 4 times as big as yours, our technologies are not running in the same decade.
you tell me which one has a better future?
oh, let's also don't forget one thing which you will never earn: our land size is 3 times as big as yours when our population is comparable. this means our short range missile can hit your capital while you need long range dead expensive ones to attack ours.
So thats a 10 year gap right?
In early 2000 China had 1 trillion dollar economy.
2010, India had 1 trillion dollar economy.
So your point being?
China's economy being for times bigger doesn't change the fact the PLA withdrawed from the land they STILL claim! what happened to sikkim? they offically acknowledged it is a part of India.
What about "south Tibet"?
can't change the fact that the InA is dug in and has bunkers and artillery.
You can try picking a fight, but if it was possible why wait while the enemy gets stronger as well?
China's technological edge? In what fields?
military aircraft? hmmm Su-30MKI armed with Isreali EW, French/Indian avonics. Because a Russian Su-30MK wasn't good enough. The InAF has higher standards, expecially given the fact that they have a choice!
ground equipment? Arjun MBT=based of Leapord in comparrision with T-99/AK=based on a T-72.
Naval Ships?, Talwar class frigates, with 8 supersonic cruise missiles vs T52b?c? what ever.
If china is all mighty and powerful, it could have taken "southern Tibet", it didn't because it can't! Just like Taiwan!
You seem to oversimplify the actual situation like a child.
