They will be testing all these weapons, but they won't allow other countries test their own.
They tested it near their carrier now.... so what's the issue... undecided

Now I know your smoking..
The Chinese government can't fund its aircraft carrier project a country with a military budget of close to 300bn..
I don't know anything about the Chinese military for you to say it barely has one..
Shandong and liaoling aircraft carriers are what toys Abi..
You guys should stop arguing with sentiments





Even the Chinese military topmost hierarchy knows that what they're parading as aircraft carriers are toys when compared with the attack, defense and mobility capabilities of those of the US.

How on earth are you comparing a carrier being fuelled with nuclear reactor with 80 - 100k tons to the toys running on diesel.

Or you must be mistaking helicopter carrier for an aircraft carrier.

I dare the Chinese navy to carry out a seismic test done on this with one of their carrier toys.

There's a new model in the US fleet which cost $12.5 B. It beats my imagination why a country would spend so much on a hardware that can be destroyed by the push of a button from an enemy. Asides that, $12.5 B on military hardware is damn crazy.. Those guys budget trillion of dollars in military annually. Crazy!

They are preparing for UFO battles.

UFO battles is probably only 2% physical, if at all... Those creatures aren't what many humans think them to be and permission will be granted to them to torment those who will miss heaven.

Trust me, you don't want to imagine the scenario, no computer graphics can do justice to the events that will unfold.

Give your life to Jesus' Christ today while salvation is still free.
He loves you and is waiting for you with open arms.

Russia, with it's military might cannot dare the US.

Each of the US's military component/hardware has superiority edge over any other country's military.

I challenge you to interrogate anyone with military knowledge about superiority and quality of major world military power.

Recent history would educate you that there was a panic in Beijing that day the B-52 bomber was flown over the disputed south china sea. The US ambassador was immediately summoned to the Chinese parliament with a warning that such a a jet should not hover in that territory.

How on earth will you compare a country with over 600 B-52 bombers to China whose hight military aircraft is Chendu.

Aircraft carriers are designed to project long-distance power, but in the age of Nuclear Submarine, long-distance bombers, drone, ballistic missiles and intercontinental missiles they have lost their relevance.

Yawn

What the Russians have are nukes and very good SAMs. They're behind in signal intelligence and sensor fusion and stealth.

None of their carriers come close to this.

All hail the US

You do have a point.

Panic? No, not at all. May be they were enraged and angered. China is not a country that would panic at the mention of USA.

How on earth will you compare a country with over 600 B-52 bombers to China whose hight military aircraft is Chendu.

If there is one advantage that China has over USA, it is the population. China beats Russia to the second place after USA in terms of military mighty because of population.
No matter how solid your technology is, you still need population for war even in modern warfare.

They're panicked because of the 'stealthy' capability of that bomber. The B-class bombers are like a combined nuclear arsenal on an enemy's airspace territory.

Population of ground troops will not be advantageous in the eventuality of booth-to-booth warfare. The country with airspace might will win. Imagine china going into war with the US who could deploy aircraft carriers with nuclear capability.

I'm sure that the THAAD (Terminal Air Altitude Defense) will intercept and neutralize any perceived warhead coming the direction of the US.

My arguments may seem apologetic and sentimental to the US, but I'm analysing based on the knowledge I have about those countries' military might.

The Chendu the Chinese could boast of is only in the class if F-14/16 in the US air defense. Do your research and you'll discover that the B bombers are sleepless night for major world powers.

The US carriers are armed with anti-missle defense systems. The defense sensors in them triggers the anti-misslies blast once the satellite signals that an enemy misslie is coming its direction.

This is why Iran dares not launch any missle against the US carriers at the Strait of Hormuz. It'll be suicidal and catastrophic.

Guy am not trying to insult you but it seems you just read about other countries military or your just too invested in the US military that you have limited knowledge of other countries military, cause if you had the extensive knowledge you won't say China has one carrier and you won't say that statement you just wrote that Russia can't try this with any of its carriers let me ask you how many carries does Russia have

Guy abeg calm down..
Let me educate you all aircraft carrier have defence systems I mean all..
Even as small as an amphibious ship it has, so calm down..
I won't get into the Iran argument..
Back to the discussion even with those defence why will aircraft carriers still have escorts of more than 5 ships..
Dude whether you like it or not like the other fellow said aircraft carriers are sitting ducks if it wasn't for transportation of jets nobody will build it..
No matter how sophisticated an aircraft carrier is on its own its a gonna drop two Russian destroyers on it with super sonic anti ship missles let's see what will happen..
This discussion has been made before it doesn't end well for the carrier
