The Chinese Carrier, formerly the Soviet Aircraft Carrier Varyag, has completed it’s 10th sea trial. The Chinese are planning two additional conventional carriers and two nuclear powered carriers. Once completed, the five carriers should afford China with a good force projection capability. The Chinese have recently tested a SLBM with a range of over 7,000km.

  • Prime Minister Medvedev: “With regard to the american missile bases on Russia’s borders, “I have made the following decisions. First, I am instructing the Defense Ministry to immediately put the missile attack early warning radar station in Kaliningrad on combat alert. Second, protective cover of Russia’s strategic nuclear weapons will be reinforced as a priority measure under the program to develop our air and space defenses. Third, the new strategic ballistic missiles commissioned by the Strategic Missile Forces and the Navy will be equipped with advanced missile defense penetration systems and new highly-effective warheads. Fourth, I have instructed the Armed Forces to draw up measures for disabling missile defense system data and guidance systems. These measures will be adequate, effective, and low-cost. Fifth, if the above measures prove insufficient, the Russian Federation will deploy modern offensive weapon systems in the west and south of the country, ensuring our ability to take out any part of the US missile defense system in Europe. One step in this process will be to deploy Iskander missiles in Kaliningrad Region. Other measures to counter the European missile defense system will be drawn up and implemented as necessary. Furthermore, if the situation continues to develop not to Russia’s favor, we reserve the right to discontinue further disarmament and arms control measures.”

    True to their word

    • Truth be told, the Soviets/Russians ignore the treaties we sign with them as they see fit. The U.S. may get a really ugly surprise one day soon.

    When we look at Red Dragon Communist China from an “STRATIGIC” View, we can not look at their Air Craft Carrier or leaking nuclear subs, but at the DUMBS with 3 thousand nuclear heads or maybe more, also super sufisticated state of the art fighter aircraft that can cross The USA withing the hour, also tanks, electronic jamming, more than 300 million troops and outer space intelligence. Ungodly ufo’s inside Red China are a true story. EMP.
    An American Air Force Jet Fighter Officer said that Red China has powerful “T.S” Aircraft and that The USA must not drop guard “stratigicly” on any of it’s enemies.
    The axis of evil are radical, violators of human rights and not willing to change their ungodly constitutions to allow democracy and they keep imprisoning dmocracy and freedoms.
    The enemy keeps scalating with lightining fast weapons and infiltartion/subvertsion their game till they can be convince that co-existing peace is the otherwise. By RRR

    Visit “YouTube” and the internet for my word verification.

    • By axis of evil you mean the United States, Britain and Israel? Just sayin’.

      Also, although China is an overpopulated environmental disaster, the fact that they have a billion more people than we do and are spending big bucks upgrading their military could be a problem for us.
