A little sabre rattling in necessary to keep the two countries procuring weapons. It might be wasteful, but it is also necessary to keep funds flowing for weapons research. The only problem is, with PRC, the research and development happens within PRC, but in case of India, it usually culminates with importing weapons from other countries.This is biggest joke of the century by Abhijeet. India and China are heading towards 300 billion dollar business per year by 2020... War...? What war ?

Soviet Nuclear Bomber hoax[edit]
The 1 December 1958 issue of Aviation Week included an article, Soviets Flight Testing Nuclear Bomber, that claimed that the Soviets had greatly progressed a nuclear aircraft program:[2]

These concerns caused continued but temporary funding of the US's own program.

The aircraft in the photographs was later revealed to be the entirely conventional Myasishchev M-50 Bounder, a medium-range strategic bomber that performed like the USAFs B-58 Hustler.
