The way you set up your profile page in here does not give me option of starting/initiating private conversations. :P

Sorry Yugo I have no clue how to set up a beautiful profile page, but hey if you want to send me a PM, how about this: you post the encrypted texts on this normal thread and in parallel you transfer me the secret key via PM? With the key I will decrypt the texts.

You do realize the mods can read every PM, don't you?

Anyone can laugh including a Croat nobody in VN cares of. If you know anything better then tell us. Do you know why the Chinese didn't send a single fighter aircraft during the war with Vietnam in the 1979? The same reason why the US founded during the war with Vietnam in the 1960s the Top Gun Naval Fighter School to train the best pilots to better respond to increasing aerial threats. Vietnamese air defense and fighter pilots shot their jets down like chickens. There is a famous Hollywood movie with Tom Cruise: Top Gun. The dogfight scenes are quite good.

Sure there are flight simulators but pilots can hardly train dogfight with enemy fighter aircraft in close contact.

Didn't stop the US rolling thunder operation to bomb anything the NVA had.

The US during the Vietnam war have sole monopoly on air superiority. The only reason china don't send jets are probably the same reason Nehru didn't send air cover during the war with China. They just don't want it to escalate.

The US airforce had learned from previous encounters. They deployed more aircraft, more trained pilots with better tactics and not at least modern air-to-air missiles. Consider this: during the 12-day air battle over Hanoi (1972), the US fielded 207 B52 bombers and 2,000 fighter aircraft, coming in waves, in formation that darkened the sky. Normally nobody would have survived. But the city has survived despite being heavy wounded.

The wars the Chinese fighting against India and Vietnam can't be compared in scale and conditions. Fighter aircraft can't be easily deployed in mountainous regions between China/India. In contrast Vietnam and China have no natural barriers. True nobody wanted to escalate the war to a point of no return.

The deployment of aircraft and warships would be the step.
