July 12, 2012 / / 3 Comments

Question by MR. RED M&M: Australia’s military build-up, war in the south Pacific?
Many south asian nations if drastically increased military spending in the last 10 years and now Australia is preparing their biggest military build up since WW2 which includes: 100 fifth generation stealth capable strike fighters, 12 new submarines, 4 AWD to the RAN which are armed with Cruise missiles capable of striking 400 km from the Australian shoreline. is war coming to the south Pacific? China is becoming a stronger military power in the pacific region daily as the USA’s influence in the region declines. Japan has also boosted spending in their “self” defence force due to fears of a Chinese led invasion.

Is the a real possibility of the U.S. having a traditional non-nuclear war with a major military power?

Question by Notyme4BS: Is the a real possibility of the U.S. having a traditional non-nuclear war with a major military power?
Wouldn’t technology make it extremely difficult to even get military assets to a foreign power, or vice versa?

For example, can’t navy ships be sunk by cruise missles while they’re thousands of miles away. Can’t major powers see where our ships & planes are with satelite & vice versa. How would we land troops in Russia or China for an invasion?

Answer by Futile
Non-nuclear doesn’t mean non-technological. We could have wars without nuclear energy or weapons, if the possibility ever arose. But if we didn’t have technology, how did the war begin in the first place?

And if we can’t go to them, how can they come to us?

Question by American Noodle: Y is Fox News afraid to criticize China for trying to hack into US military computers = owners live in China?
From Mike Mount
CNN

WASHINGTON (CNN) — The Chinese military continues to increase spending on efforts to break into U.S. military computer systems, expand its Navy, and invest in intercontinental nuclear missiles and weapons to destroy satellites, according to the latest U.S report on China’s military power.

By ADAM ENTOUS

WASHINGTON—The Pentagon voiced alarm over China’s military buildup, saying it was expanding its advantage over Taiwan and investing heavily in ballistic and cruise missile capabilities that could one day pose a challenge to U.S. dominance in the western Pacific.

In its annual report to Congress on Chinese military capabilities, the Pentagon also cited China’s advances in electronic warfare. The U.S. government has been the target of cyber intrusions the report says appear to have originated in China and aimed to steal military secrets. “These intrusions focused on exfiltrating information, some of which could be of strategic or military utility,” the report said.

Fox is owned by CHINA – because they are HERE in AMERICA and CHINA owns a LARGE AMOUNT of STOCK in AMERICA. That’s the extent of that.

Unlike the MAIN STREAM MEDIA – who refuse to carry ANTI-OBAMA stories… Fox will report “news”.

So many times… I’ll see a story on FOX… and tune to MSNBC or CNN – and there will be NO MENTION of it – FOR DAYS!

(And that’s only because FOX broke the story… and they HAD to cover it).

Question by lucky: does the U.S military have a supersonic antiship cruise missile? or an actual defense against the russian one?
My brother is on an aircraft carrier in the gulf….says they are all freaking out about the new russian missile china and iran has. That the US military is lacking in anti missile technology…and also has nothing to match the russian made new “sunburt” missile. Is this true?
Ive been looking around the web/asking questions. So far…what ive found out is 1)The us does not have a supersonic missile. he have the harpoon which is from the 70’s. As far as defense we have the Aguies(sp?) system that the russian missile was made to destroy.

Further question. If we have a military budget spending more the the russians and china…why dont we have better technology?

Q&A: Has China already got more military equipment as it is 20 times cheaper to build a missile in China?

October 29, 2011 / / 8 Comments

Question by Mr Miyagi wants a kiss: Has China already got more military equipment as it is 20 times cheaper to build a missile in China?
Many people point to China’s military budget when comparing it to other nations but military equipment is made much more cheaper in china. To build a cruise or nuclear missile in the USA they first have to ask the Chinese if they can use their rare earth materials (98% of all rare earth materials come from China). The Chinese can make everything from jet fighters to jeeps for a fraction of the cost of ther nations. If you account for how cheap they can produce military equipment how long before they are the number 1 military power? That is if they are not already.

Best answer:

Answer by Satellite
No. China’s military hardware and logistics is dwarfed compared to the US. The near entirety of the Chinese forces is comprised of unarmoured infantry.
