Imagine if US was kind with China in the pass and sell us some descent weapons, we would have being depend on US for weapon imports as Japan, Korea and China will have to listen to US, we will no chance to make such toys as J-20, J31, 055, rail gun, ASAT...Aircraft carrier, 095 sub which Americans wouldn't like to see its happen.
China would have a good chance of becoming yet another SP12, too.
Without meaningful manufacturing and logistics capability
With a military that depends on imports for critical platforms and systems
With those platforms and systems paid for with borrowed money as the current accounts give a deficit
With an inflated ego boasting about future tense (2012) and ignoring present reality
With foreign policy that is attached and subjugated to the US
With a government that even bows down in front of a dotard as Trump
Thank Buddha for not making the US a benign superpower to China. Thank Clinton for the 3rd Taiwan Straits Crisis. Thank Obama for the Pivot. Thank Dotard for trade wars.
I just want Kissinger's generation to die off. Kicks the can. Becomes total history.
Once they are totally gone, the US will be entirely a government by the dotards, of the dotards, for the dotards.
I come back to this thread, and still no one can explain why the US should invest huge amounts of money into EMR when we can get a similar capability with HVP, distribute it to over 1,000 powder guns, at a much faster pace and cheaper rate? Instead, their talking about Indians.
What is SP12's response to this?
