When i said or meant " US is not anyone`s godfather that a nation has to take permission from him "....
What is the defence spending of USA, $600 billion dollars. Can somebody blieve that with that $ they will not be on top in def tech. How much defence spending USSR used during 80s. It was also somewhere near to $500 billion. To have best def tech they need to put money. Do you think that a middle income man can buy a Ferrari, No. A rich, super rich can. We are still in a low income country and our per capita defence spending is very low. In R&D compare to USA or earlier USSR we are nowhere.
Their is noting for complication but Why would we need to see Merkava4?
.
. Current DGMF wil retire in 2-3 years i think, till then wait and see
A rich man can buy a ferrari but cant create a ferrari. where was the $ of "YOUR" US when China amazed the whole world by destroying the satellite using lasers. currently China posses the worlds best tank (TYPE 99) with laser protection system. which your US M1 Abrams doesnt have. Even T90 is somewhat better than M1 Abrams. And about the requirements of FMBT I must say that India can achieve what it needs with its current capability and if India combines with Russia for the development of FMBT then it could result in a thing like Brahmos.
China use its new anti-satellite missile not laser..
Yes, Its a laser warning system, not a laser based defensive suit..
Coz their strategy is wrong!
China has spend heavyly in defence and defenc related R&D but it still needs atleast 3 decades to overcome USA. Around 2040 China's GDP will cross USA and defence tech also will be as per with USA. Where will be we around 2040, buying T90 spare parts from Russia. Do we think that china is going to import a basic defence hardware like tank around 2040. China also produced lot of crap hardware including early versions of tank but their army is associated with new tank devlopment and partner with R&D organization so now they have abl to produce almost all the hardware with good tech. Here in India we are crying -"We want russian toy to play our own are crap; we want russian maal only nothing else. I donot care how best they are or how much they cost but want only russian" Also how many Brahmos Russia ordred? Is Russia has allowed India to prodecue Brahmos engine? What happnd to ultra secreative mighty T95?
Exactly why we should worry about them if what you say comes true then we have in china a people with nothing to lose in war and everything to gain!
Everone even a small child knows about the reputation of a weapon "made in china" . you say china is self sufficient in its weapon technology or will be. but what is the use of such weapons which were rejected by its own army(not all but some of them). why not some powerfull nations like israel or brazil import weapons from china if chinese weapons are of such a superb quality. even china currently import most of its weapons.
Now this is no reason you are explaining me that their strategy is wrong. Are the experts sitting in the Pentagon "fools" or they are mad that they are making wrong strategy. Its not so buddy. there is nothing wrong in there strategy or technology. its all about the effort and hard work which i had to say is more in the talibani`s than the US troops.
If u know this much then you can also make out our progress in Kashmir compare to Afghanistan..
Live in your old dream world. I never said we cannot make arjun mk2. But if somebody asked for laser technology on a tank,believe it will not gonna to happen in next ten years
We run away from Lanka after loosing 2,000 men but Sri Lanka can able to defeat LTTE . In Nagaland we are fighting for last 50 years still not able to defeat NSCN. In Kasmir we are fighting for last 20 years without sucess. In Punjab it is punajab police that done the job. Gurrilla war is somthing different than conventional war. We cannot compare
Buddy NATO forces are fighting an open war with the Taliban. On the other hand in Kashmir we are just preventing terrorist from entering into India. Now you tell me who will have more casuality. Just tell me.
And that`s what I am talking about. Its not necessary that he who looks powerful can achieve all the tasks. But in Sri Lanka dont blame our forces brother. Our forces were not guided properly by the Sri Lankan authority against the one of the most powerful networks in the world i.e. LTTE.
