[🇹🇷] US approves F-16 fighter jet sale to Turkey, F-35s to Greece after Turkey OKs Sweden's entry to NATO

[Vsdoc]

It’s the pilots + tech. 3 rafales shot confirmed.

Two big moves by Putin yesterday:

Praising India vs Pakistan/China/Turkey arms performance in the recent war, in a widely televised joint military command address

And

Likely stop of Russian engines for the Pakistani JF17

 

[Jiangnan]

And how did chinese tech perform for us bhai?

After all, India can use MIG21 to shoot down F-16s.

It's true? I heard that Putin was bombed by drones during his speech.

Please man. Be respectful to the hand that protects you

Respect Indian propaganda. For example. When Indians say they killed "108PLA soldiers" such as Song Jiang, Lu Junyi, Wu Yong, Wu Song, Lin Chong, etc. in Galwan.

Before I read the Ming Dynasty novel Water Margin. I believe in Indian propaganda.

I have always respected. Indians have a fearless courage to expose themselves.

You can diss Indians. Eventually we will fight anyways. That is guaranteed.

But Russia you need to be careful about.

Especially after the recent performance of your weapon lines against India.

In Indian caste terms, you are banyas. And bammans to an extent.

But kshatriya you most definitely are not.

So be careful.

We are no longer talking near peer.

We are talking about superpower who can wipe you off the face of the earth. With a small fraction of his firepower.

That was my limited point friend.

I agree with doc saab that Chinese are mostly mercantile and planter class. But so are most Indians. I wouldn't underestimate their fighting abilities. You don't need the whole country to fight. A million will do. Those many warriors you can find easily.

On the other hand, the warrior Japs have been totally made clerical class.

Japs are too dangerous, can't be allowed to fight anymore.

There is a movement there, who oppose pacifism and are hard nationalist Japs who disagree with it.

@Lulldapull can tell us more about the nationalist Japs

If the Japanese and Germans had free reigns and weren't restricted by the Americans - they would dominate right now.

Much of the white Americans in the US are Germans - they stole German scientists to build their nukes.

Every region of India (erstwhile princely states) has a fighting class, from which their armies were drawn.

Our regimental structure is still a throwback to British times and very much reflects the same.

I asked @Jiangnan which was the last hot war the Chinese had fought.

The consensus was the Korean war.

In terms of trickle down that @TheNewb77 and I were discussing, even the generations that experience trickled down to are long retired.

I hope you see my point.

 

[Vsdoc]

While China has been doing banya baaji, India has been fighting non stop.

Thanks largely to our beloved Pakistanis.

yes, NASA main man Wehrner von Braun and many others helped in space, nuke, rocketry.. everything.

While that is true, it was also a limiting factor. Making warriorship hereditary / caste based was not a very smart thing to do historically. Many khatris were simply couch potatoes and had no real fighting skills. While many agrarian communities produced tough men but weren't elevated to leadership positions.

Now the system is more merit based.

yeah, they haven't been in a proper war forever.
