Dont be absurd, China didnt have any delivery systems in the 60s. How you gonna exchange nukes with US when you dont have any delivery vehicles?
Watch you words here..

They may use low yield tactical nukes against our strategic forces and military installations of high significance

Btw US called it off because of USSR, not because of Mao. Learn some history first. :cool2:
You need to learn some history...China did not have delivery systems and so actually China wanted USSR to hit Chinese soil with nukes, for that their plan was "Chinese forces would pretend to flee from battlefield and when US forces would follow them inside Chinese territory China wanted USSR to hit nukes in that particular area of Chinese soil where US troops are concentrated". Off course USSR refused. Such a inhuman leadership you and your nation have got since the birth of your nation. Tienanmen massacre is the recent example.

after voting yes - ive changed my view - why would prc-dragon want a nuke conflict with a weaker india ? when traditional conventional weapons can do the job - after all theyre not going for an all out war , their style would be an inch by inch at the border type of warfare and you dont need nukes for that especially when they are stronger and have seen the relative weakness of indian troops in their " friendly" joint exercises .-

Nuclear war between India and China is not possible even in extreme cases, but Indo-Pak nuclear war is possible.

Such a question alone reeks of ignorance! India and China both are not nuclear war fighting countries!

China's threat to India comes in the form of a humongous arsenal of conventional ballistic missiles, not nukes!!

What's the point of our nukes with a spineless leadership? They are just deterrents, and even if China nukes us, our leadership will make comments like, "We are actively trying to make peace with China", or "We believe in non-violence", or something like that.
China's nukes are also "just" deterrents. China has a stated policy of no first use, just like India. That is the reason China has built up such a large arsenal of BMs that they do not need to use nukes to flatten Indian targets.

In the 60s, Mao was willing to sacrifice 300 million chinese in a nuke exchange with America. That's when America realized they had a huge strategic problem and left china alone.

Now china is much more sane and will not risk.
Yusuf, that's actually completely untrue!

China never had the capability to hit the US in the '60s and only partially got it by the mid-70s in the form of the DF-5.

Maybe you confused the US with the Soviets. It were the Soviets that China threatened, but it was a total bluff, since the Chinese didn't even have the capability to hit Moscow at that time, and the Chinese were shit scared of a Soviet invasion.

Agreed. The next war is not of nukes. It would be a war of Missiles and Shields ... of Satellites and ASATs.
Contemplating nuke use is for losers like Pakistan.

China received 2 nuclear threats: USA (1950s), USSR(1960s-1970s).

USA threated the nuclear hit as they were tired of blood shed in korea! As Chinese close ally, USSR's nulcear force was the reason they didn't do it!

In 1969, when China & USSR had the little conflict for the little island, USSR once planned to completely destroy Chinese military ability with nuclear hit! Ironically, this time USA was the one protected China. They warned russians that they would get in if there was a nuclear war! But russian nuclear threat always overshaddow China in the whole 70s. That is the exactlly why Chinese general told Mao:we may loose 300-600 millions people in nuclear war! China was hopeless in a possible sino-russia nuclear war!

I think you are saying that a Nuclear war is unwanted and is a waste of all the development and the RISE OF ECONOMIC POWER OF BOTH CHINA AND INDIA....

If so then I agree with you...

It is time that we show that ASIANS ARE ALSO ECONOMICALLY POWERFUL AND TOGETHER INDIA AND CHINA CAN ACHIEVE WONDERS AND THATS THE WAY WE HAVE TO GO AND ALSO PULL RUSSIA IN AND A COMPLETE INDEPENDENCY FROM THE WESTERN POWERS IS WHAT WE NEED
