That too

Man this discord is amazing

But then this is also a doubled edged sword for india, because rhen China could use the same tactics against them and make it impossible to get through

If this war happens then it will be China invading India and India will have no need to counter invade

True

But if India gets hot headed with a successful defense, they'll go on the offensive which will be a mistake

It will be but I feel like President Trump will send in advisers and keep them from going on the offensive

Yeah

This will be a proxy war with the US and Russia but on an extremely larger scale

Tho i have to wonder, whats happenin with China's navy? Been real silent for a while

I don’t think it’s a real threat because even if they have the backing of Russia, they’re Navy is really built to defend their holdings

Meanwhile our Navy is built to kick ass and go on the offensive

True

But India's fleet? Last i heard they accidentally sunk one of their own subs because they forgot to close the hatch

Well they’ll have the backing of the strongest Navy/Navies on the planet with us and Japan

But they will have kinks to work out within their own navy to be a viable force

Well Japan wont be doing much, mostly becaus of a little thing that restrictions from making an offensive military

If India is attacked it won’t be an offensive war it’ll be a defensive war but in the defense of an ally rather than the Japanese homeland

True

And maybe thisll be Japans one chance to finally test out their sweet new toys

We also have to take into account that the Japanese military is probably the second most technologically advanced military on the planet behind ours

Yeah

And even then they might have ours beat in the tech game

Mhm

They could beat us at cyberwarfare, and with the way they design their tanks, they could do a deffensive hulldown far more effective than any american tank can

Very true

Tho aircraft wise, pretty even game since we practically sell our jets to them

Their tanks would be taken out by one 125 mm

Wonder if they've started screwin around with the thermal signature cloaking/disguise as much as we have on their tanks

And are actually using it

Because if so, their pretty much leagues ahead of everyone else

Tho they probably arent as even with our budget its been a pain in the R&D tryin to develop it to be effective

Percentage wise, nobody can even compare with how much we put towards our military. And based on the dollar, the next 7 highest spending countries don’t spend as much as us combined

Mhm

We spend alot on it, tho even we still cut corners alot and try milking nearly 40 year old designs

But at least we dont milk as bad as Russia does

I mean despite the age of the of the Abrams deign, it consistently been the greatest tank on the planet

True

Tho its been strugglin to keep up, with most of the newest additions on it hurting its mobility to a pretty sizable degree

Yea but I believe that this issues have been or are being dealt with in the designs of the M1A3 and M1A4 Abrams

Those*
