CHINA

[IPkurd]

does any1 no the militry strength of china, it has the biggest army in tha world. I reacon they can take over USA with ease and there the next super power, no wonder there not on George bush's "axis of evil" list.

They have 8 to 24 nukes that can be used from destroyers.They make their own weapons and import high tek materials from Russia and by spying.

They have the biggest army in the world ,but they aren't very well equiped.China right know is incapable of deploying troops like the US have done in countrys like Irak because their navy isn't powerfull enough.Their airforce is huge but in need of better aircraft.They have many tanks but not as advanced as the Leopard 2 tank.China is very powerfull but still needs time to equal and then overtrow the US.Not to metion they have to many enemys Indian and Taiwan that have significant fire power and Indian being nuclear doesn't help.What is clear riht know is that an invasion of China will lead to defeat China my not be a sea powr or air power right now but on land wacth out.

Really old planes, way back to the 80's and some even sixties.

And what are they doing with US aircraft?

The same thing the US is doing with MIG29s;)

Have they bought Mig 29's?

Hahaha, I knew that they were copying the Soviet pilot training procedure partly.

Holland bought some Mig 24's (Hinds), the proof that the US technology isn't so superieur as they think. :biggrin:

Yeah imagine how the fench with their Mirages and the UK with their Harriers must feel knowing german MIGs are better.;)

[Disgustipated]

I saw a special on TV once (history channel I think) that was about the last Mig. (29?) They were saying that the aircraft was capable of maneuvers that no other plane on the planet could match. It was a rapid climb with a pushed flat dive. It was kind of cool to watch. I'm sure the US has copied the plans and design and will use it.

And I bet you're one of those who is against war in the world right?

Hypocrites, all of you.

[deimos]

I heard that several of the Euro Fighter were copied by the MiG 29. The germans got some of these planes from the DDR.

Well no, the last plane in this serie was the mig-37 I thougt.

The sukhoi 27 and the latest mig fighter serie are able to perform some manouvres, under which the cobra manouvre. It's an manouvre thougt to be impossible, but this plane learned that that theory is wrong.

Most experts claim that these Russian planes can easily shoot down all the other planes, this ofcourse doesnt fit in the American thinking of "we are the best" and say that their missles can shoot these planes down before the're even visible on the radar of the Russians.

Yes the Euro fighter does have some simmilarities with the Mig 29 and Sukhoi 27.

Edit: Soz the latest in the serie is the Su 37 and the Mig 35 http://www.military.cz/russia/air/mig/Mig_...g_35/mig_35.htm (http://www.military.cz/russia/air/mig/Mig_35/mig_35.htm)

'They have 8 to 24 nukes that can be used from destroyers.'

Do you mean that they only have 8 to 24 nukes in all, or that only 8 to 24 can be used from destroyers. I was under the impression that China had around 2,500 nukes and had a certain amount of long range ICBM's. They also possible have superior nuclear launch sites to the U.S. i.e. more protected and thus in a nuclear war less vunerable. Could just be propaganda or misinformation though.

[Guardia Bolivariano]

From what I read those 24 nukes are part of the "rapid response" system but it's obvious that they have more nuclear meterial in stock.Now It being superior to russian or US bombs I don't think they have the means to do that ..for now.

The weapons of China is 3/4 Russian old weapons!
Old tanks, old aircrafts(except Su-27 and Mig-29)...

The number of population is nothing!!! One nuclear bomb to Peking...1/4 of China people could became the ash!
