Pelosi arrives in Taiwan vowing U.S. commitment; China enraged

U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the trip shows an unwavering American commitment to the Chinese-claimed self-ruled island, but China condemned the highest-level U.S. visit in 25 years as a threat to peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.

Americans have balls at least.... Now what happens, will be very interesting to watch over.

Americans don't have balls... they are doing same g**dmasti they did in Ukraine. Once China invades they will runaway and will put some meaningless sanctions. It's Taiwan which is having balls and it's China which is challenged to have some.

Even sanctioning China is next to impossible.

That's why I said meaningless... it's like lip service which will have no impact on war and chinese economy.

Yes MNCs can’t pull out their companies from China as they’re a big market, but atleast they can move out their export oriented factories from China to other Asian economies but they don’t do so, one wonders should we take them seriously at all? Taiwanese brands are still exporting Made in China stuff in the world and so are Western companies. I don’t consider them serious at all and they’re just doing timepass in the name of anti-China alliances and military drills.

I wonder why China does not deploy, like one squadron, or even a half squadron of J-20 in Tibet. It is always 1 or 2 jets at max.

Wonder if J-20 is too costly or impractical to operate in Tibet, for example, B-2 & F-22s need climate-controlled hangers.

Former USAF pilots called F-35 a fat whale when it was in the design and production phase. These guys grew up in the era of dog fights. So they didn't really catch up on the technological progress. F-35 sure is a huge ass plane. But the plane is packed with sensors and all sorts of goodies for a pilot to never engage in a dog fight. Even then F-35 is way too expensive to operate even for USAF. It costs $30,000 - $35,000 per hour to operate F-35. And USAF wants to induct 2,500 F-35's by 2040.

Lockheed agrees to $30,000 per flight hour cost for F-35A by FY2023

The F-35 Joint Program Office has awarded Lockheed Martin a sustainment contract for the F-35 that commits the company to reduce the operating cost of the stealth fighter to $30,000 per flight hour by fiscal year 2023, down 10.7% from FY2020.

www.flightglobal.com

" High operating costs are an existential threat to the F-35.” -- Lt. Gen. Eric Fick, Joint Program Office director

Can a Service Contract Save the F-35? - Air Force Magazine

Chronically high operating costs might be tamed with a new deal. A new sustainment contract between the F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO) and Lockheed Martin, inked in September, will give the company a chance to bring down operating costs over the next three years.

When Chinese said they have built a stealth fighter, I was naturally curious. When I saw it there was Mig 1.44 finger prints all over it. This is not new for China I thought. They bought Lavi fighter jet design and made J10. I wouldn't be surprised if they did the same with J20. However, this new stealth plane is freaking huge. No wonder they needed to have those canards on the front for additional lift. If USAF with all their experience are having trouble operating stealth fighters in terms of cost then you bet Chinese would be having problems too not only in terms of cost but also technology. There is no way J20 would be effective without powerful engines. Even with powerful engines J20 cannot go super sonic for long periods of time. Going supersonic for long periods will result in structural damage and loss of stealth capabilities. This is a problem in F-35 too.

When It Comes to Supersonic Flight, the F-35’s Wings Are Clipped

Sustained supersonic speeds could cause lasting damage to the F-35's stealth capabilities.

www.popularmechanics.com

The Pentagon will have to live with limits on F-35’s supersonic flights

The Navy's and Marine Corps' versions of the F-35 will have restrictions on how long they can fly at supersonic speeds because of a risk of damage to the tail section.

www.defensenews.com

And the other factors like J20 only having frontal stealth and whether their avionics, sensor fusion, AESA radar are up to the standards of 5th generation fighters? We don't have much idea on those. Operating J20 in many different climatic conditions must also be a pain the ass I reckon.

China’s new G695 highway across Aksai Chin is a problem. India can't stay quiet

China has a clear strategy to assert its sovereignty through the management and development of its border areas. Modi govt can't underplay this.

If the army can just mass buy ATAGS and LCH we will truly have a potent combo against the Chinese.

Is this related to the claims that Chinese are blocking Army Radios
