"TRUTH HURT"? mentor. Why are you getting so upset at your own countrymen for being honest? how could you denial your inferiority when even your naval chief had openly admitted that India is far behind China in terms of military force?
Do check out the true confession of a India navy chief and compared it with a dishonest nobody retired so-called military personnel.

"In military terms, both conventional and non-conventional, we neither have the capability nor the intention to match China force for force," said Admiral Sureesh Mehta.

For a nuclear-armed military representing the interests of a billion-plus people, the lack of confidence is quite striking. India's military leadership has made a stunning confession that New Delhi doesn't have the stomach for a fight, if push came to shove on the disputed Sino-Indian boundary.

"Whether in terms of GDP, defence spend or any other parameter, the gap between the two is too wide to bridge and is getting wider by the day," he said.

While India spends about $30 billion annually on defence, China spends at least thrice as much, although some estimates go up to $ 200 billion.

Its military is twice as large as India and its nuclear arsenal far well proven.

There is no denying that u are way ahead of us in military and economic front, and we respect u for your hard work, but at the same time we also know that we have the potential to do better than what we are doing. as u see we are also on the right path .

India has more than 100 nuclear warheads more than enough to cause havoc on any enemy nation regardless of size it is true we are not capable to fight of China we lack both the political and military might to do so we have bad leadership who sleeps on the issue of the Sino-India border, nonetheless there is a reason to why India built atomic weapons to make sure a repeat of 1962 never occurred

bottom line war is not good for either us especially since our nuclear doctrine has changed from "no first use to no first use against non nuclear states only" in other words if China attacks India and our existence is threatened it will be a nuclear holocaust

I doubt that....

The estimation of nuclear destructive power:

1. Russia ~ 1,273 megaton
2. USA ~ 570 megaton
3. China ~ 294 megaton
4. France ~ 55 megaton
5. UK ~ 16 megaton
6. Israel ~ 1.5 - 4 megaton
7. India ~ 0.8 - 1 megaton
8. Pakistan ~ 0.6 - 1 megaton
9. North Korea ~ Unknown

NTI: Nuclear Disarmament

Add to that the fact that India needs its very longest range missiles, to target our major cities on the Eastern coast.

Whereas we can target all of India's major cities using only short/medium-range missiles, based in Tibet. Geography is on our side.

 

[COLDHEARTED AVIATOR]

you are wrong 100% wrong they has upper hand but not so much now they cant afford war against us

if now we show them we are accepting them as power then it will be the worst message to our forces

they can kill 80 out of 100 but we can also kill 60 out of 100 that strong message must be given to Chinese

Look,i wasnt even talking of war and loosing what i meant is that China is not an inferior nation to us in military that we can attack them and take our land back ie Aksai Chain as was suggested by a member named IndoCarib.

I would want India to retaliate if China does attacks us and then it is not a matter of the deaths..we have to fight for our freedom.

But my point is that China is not Bangladesh or Myanamar that we can attack them and win in a few hours.I want the Indian govt to act tough on the issue likes stapled visa,claiming Arunanchal as their territory,dam issue etc.We should definitely act tough and give them a message that it is not acceptable but going to war is no solution and it will only be stupid.

why not deport Sonia Gandhi?

if Agni 3 is stationed in eastern Kashmir or in one of the north eastern sister states your major cities come into its range most warheads on our missiles are 200kt FBF we only use 6KG of plutonium the rest is tritium and lithium deuteride to boost the yield

not just missiles you forget that the IAF has nuclear strike capability we have ships that can launch nuclear tipped missiles and a nuke sub on trials ready to enter service next year

IAF can fly all the way to the Eastern coast of China?

Our Jin-class nuclear submarines, can target most of the Earth's surface, from within Chinese territorial waters.

Anyway 294 megatons vs. 1 megaton... it is not really a contest.

Both Chinese and Indians are sensible enough to not use WMD against each other.

INS Viraat can go to the east, you forget that we can also come from the west and south with IAF

the point is there are more options than just missiles

You are wrong ! We can not afford war! We should take steps to prevent war and not take steps that lead us to war ! Reactivating this airfield could deter China.

No it will make China more confident and reinforce their beliefs that the Indian gov;t is incompetent. What were they doing for 3 decades? I never get an answer because it is clear. If we go to war and lose our land, never ever forget the kin of all these politicans. I hope the new gov;t assissinates them and their families.

Plz If India was sensible it would have never done many things in its past. Same goes to China.....the ruling class shows a serious disconnect to the ppl.

You can hardly think of a country which has not done "many things in the past".Chinese and Indian leaders are not willing to point their nuclear weapons at each other and thats quite sensible.
