India is not going to be sanctioned, and the partnership with US will grow in strength and in depth in the years ahead.

I find this F-35/S400 issue somewhat strange. US seems to think that S400 will learn the secrets of the F-35, and render the F-35 less effective. Why isn’t the opposite true: F-35 will learn the secrets of the S400, and render the S400 less effective. One would have thought the odds favour the US, g...

Vimal ji, India has always given due consideration to China’s undoubted strengths. The question is if China’s leader is using these strengths to the best advantage of his country, or creating unnecessary trouble for his country. Ravan was also very strong.

^^^^ CCP/PLA have made a diplomatic, economic and military miscalculation. The longer this goes on, the worse it is for them: - It shows that they cannot bend India to their will i.e. their aspirations to be #1 in Asia is just gas - India’s military posture grows stronger by the day i.e. they will w...

Cost to CCP, PLA and it’s leadership could be much higher. But you are right about the economy.

Ramana, so we take it as a fact or a reasonable assumption that US military aid to Pakistan will be resumed?

eklavya

^^^^
Pakistan was firmly in the US camp in the Cold War. But that ended 30 years ago. The challenge to US power now comes from China, and Pakistan is a slave to China.

Doesn’t the MIC have much more to gain from the Indian defence budget?

Taiwan should be invited to join the Quad dialogue. Frankly, they have a much bigger issue with CCP fascism than Oz. Taiwan Air Force should also be invited to practice war drills with IAF.

There’s only one way out of the gorge, and we can train a hundred guns on that area. I’m also expecting landslides to happen, what with the Chinese farting inside the gorge, etc. So, if they want to surge towards the road, we should invite them to do so.

In the Galwan sector, China has advanced about 4.5 km. The LAC was 5 km from the DBO road. At the time of the clash the PLA had advanced to within 500-700 meters on the other side of the Shyok river.
