New developments with China and India
#1
Quote:Fresh satellite images reveal a worrying development on the India-China border. China has deployed advanced J-20 stealth fighter jets to an airfield near Shigatse, less than 150 kilometers from the Sikkim border in north-east India. This deployment raises concerns about a potential escalation in tensions between the two countries. Experts point out that the J-20s, China's most advanced fighter jets, potentially giving them air superiority over India, which currently lacks a 5th generation fighter in its arsenal. China is yet to fully withdraw troops from eastern Ladakh, where a deadly clash occurred in 2020. Moreover, Beijing has increased pressure on Arunachal Pradesh, another disputed territory in the northeast. Palki Sharma tells you more.

We've been led to believe by some that China and India were bosom buddies now.
Perhaps all isn't as well with the BRICS nations as they tell us?

That whole region is a powder keg.

India is armed and trained by the U.S. whose side do you think they're on? Also, I always wondered if this was true but my handler once told me that Chinese pilots aren't free to do their own dogfighting and that an air controller on the ground feeds them all instructions and that delay is why they will never be as good as the U.S.

What do you think? Any truth to that? Lookin at you 727 ^.^

lol wanted to state i'm only looking at you figuratively and only because you're the most knowledgeable person here, imho, in the subject of flight and I respect you

The so called controllers direct the aircraft into a favorable position just like our AWACS and other assets do for us. I never did air to air with the Chinese and anything I might have once known is either forgotten on probably changed so much it ain't worth considering...

They the Chinese were not all that good during the Korean war from what I was told. Russian pilot instructors were good and you could tell the difference once engaged. 

In my opinion when you engage in air to air it is your butt in the aircraft and you are doing all you can to flame the opponent's aircraft anyway you can as "A KILL IS A KILL" even if they are taking off and have not cleared the runway when you spot and blow their shit away.

Now with fire and forget missiles and targets destroyed at over 125 miles away where is the fun in that !! hahaha


There have been stories about some Brits and other NATO retired pilots going to China to train their pilots... Why...For money of course !

I will post this for no other reason than I like it !! hahah


From what I have read China presently is in a world of hurt as civil service workers and even the military is not being paid as the CCP is out of money... Plenty of stories and videos about the serious situation in China,,, They may start a war just to get everyone's mind off the misery the CCP has caused for their citizens, ???
