US appreciates India closing missile gap with China

[hawx]

it will be a no surprise if vietnam test there nuke in near future all the countries south korea,japan and vietnam should have nukes otherwise they will get bullied by china every day.

Now Chine's have gone blind. India was ranked 9th in 1990-2010 with $1,727,111 GDP. In 2011 India is ranked 10th with $1,843,000 GDP. Canada is marked 11th in the list behind India with $1,759,000 GDP. We grew a little slow there is nothing wrong about it. With you explanation China didn't grew at all, it was 3rd in 1990 - 2010 and continues to be 3rd.

china was 10rd in 1990 not 3rd...

You guys live your life and let us live our life....................

The point is that you CAN'T hit America, even if they nuked you in the first place. Strategic alignments change all the time, remember when they sent an aircraft carrier against India before?

The world runs on capabilities. America had no problem allying with us in the 1970's despite us being far more Communist back then, since we were weak. Today's Capitalist China is far stronger, thus more of a danger.

India simply does not have the capability to retaliate against America. Your longest range missile does not even cover a third of the distance required.

If they decided to change their alignment, they could nuke India day and night without the slightest fear of nuclear retaliation.

hmm... right.

Also, we could NUKE Burma, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and many other countries day and night without any fear of retaliation.

But, my friend, why don't you understand the simple fact that USA is not an enemy of India just as in the above case?

We have only 2 hostile neighbors in the area -- Pakistan and China.
And we have them COVERED.

If the need arises to cover USA, we will do it too.

Don't be uncivilized buddy.

I hope you will edit the post, human beings should not be connected in any way with fertilizer.

that a fact buddy sharply contrasting to their econ growth claim!

From Atal Bihari's letter to President Clinton after the '98 nuclear tests explaining why we needed to develop nuclear weapons to dea with the Chinese threat ,US and India joint strategic vision has come a long way.

Very true. Now if you take the trouble to read roughly all my posts till date about 1 and 1/2 years back I had mentioned the induction of Agni IV. To which our PDF members were sceptical and asked for proofs. Well you saw the proof. The missile was tested officially last year and India declared it as inducted this year and showcased it on 26th Jan.

Just the mere fact that something is not being shown for public consumption in no way points to lack of capability.

Another hard fact for you - our so called ICBM SURYA (range >13000 kms) is active. Silos are already existing for the same. Cheers!!!

Strategic alignments change all the time, remember when they sent an aircraft carrier against India before?

Again true. But do you recall what they achieved out of it??? Nothing!!!!

The world runs on capabilities. America had no problem allying with us in the 1970's despite us being far more Communist back then, since we were weak.

Very very true. Surprising that you seem to be sensible yet fail to recognise and appreciate logical corollaries to your own stated logic.

1970s : Decade which saw the increased militarisation of Soviet-Sino border post the border clashes of the preceeding decade. China was a communist nation fighting the symbol of Communism. What a PR coup for US? You were a major coup for US.

Today's Capitalist China is far stronger, thus more of a danger.

Brilliant! so you know why US backs India whatever you say and may think or imply. The convergence of interests far supersede the inherent dislike for the other. Common enemy: China. And that shall not change for next few decades.

India simply does not have the capability to retaliate against America. Your longest range missile does not even cover a third of the distance required.

Ok if you say so. Wont argue with you as we are not interested in targetting US. We are very happy that US takes the lead world over to fight terror/peace keeping missions/overthrowing of dictatorships etc. We are not interested in doing that. Let them do it. We will cheer them as always.

If they decided to change their alignment, they could nuke India day and night without the slightest fear of nuclear retaliation.

Its not as if some one is fornicating .... your phraseology is strange 'night and day'!!!!!

I already contradicted their claims before.

That's because India is not a growing economy.

India's GDP ranking actually fell from 2010 to 2011, according to the IMF.

List of countries by GDP (nominal) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

From 2010 to 2011, India went from having the 9th largest economy, to having the 11th largest economy.

India fell by two ranks in one year, behind both Canada and Russia.

It is just talk. The ENTIRE Indian nuclear arsenal is only about 1 megaton in total.

Whereas even ONE single Chinese nuclear warhead, is already 3-4 megatons by itself.

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
