PeCa_Chuck Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 (edited) Our EWR in Miyako island, couldn't detect and track the chinese plane at first stage of that. It's a big problem. BTW, USAF announced 2013 Thunderbirds show schedule in a few days ago. They will perform pacific tour in next year, but the shows at fareast bases seems be canceled, because of Taepodong-2 launching by north korea...:( Edited December 14, 2012 by PeCa_Chuck

Phantom88 Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 Lots of Action[Korea] in the region as of late. Patrick
Cali Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 What you need is a Q-ship disguised as a fishing boat. or for people just to behave...someone always wants more. A Q-ship would only cause more problems and escalate things there. i7-4820k @ 3.7, Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB 1866mhz EVGA GTX 970 2GB, 256GB SSD, 500GB WD, TM Warthog, TM Cougar MFD's, Saitek Combat Pedals, TrackIR 5, G15 keyboard, 55" 4K LED

dumgrunt Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 far canal, I always thought it would be at least a decade before this erupted. At this rate the flash point may occur far sooner than I thought. I can dig up the article if some one really needs it, but I remember reading in the-diplomat dot com that a Chinese academic and former PLAN admiral was quoted as saying he believed that although China was a trajectory to be on parity with the US militarily, it would be likely that hostilities would occur far before this was reached.

badger66 Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 I doubt there will be a flash point . We have been talking about a Middle East flash point since Yom Kippur in 73 0r 74 I think it was , and so far it hasnt happened . China supports North Korea , both have nukes ..... not going to happen . Just another cold war in my opinion .
marcos Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 or for people just to behave...someone always wants more. A Q-ship would only cause more problems and escalate things there. It was a joke.:D
Cali Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 It was a joke.:D I figured it was, hopefully no one in there right mind would do that.....nevermind, I'm sure someone thought of that already. i7-4820k @ 3.7, Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB 1866mhz EVGA GTX 970 2GB, 256GB SSD, 500GB WD, TM Warthog, TM Cougar MFD's, Saitek Combat Pedals, TrackIR 5, G15 keyboard, 55" 4K LED
tflash Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 I guess range is important in the South China sea. I'm not sure current assets on both sides allow for more tha some symbolic posture. There seems not to be a game-changing technology that would redistribute the cards. OK, with the J-15 and the carrier China has longer legs then before, but much of these advances are marginalized by the evolutions in long-range detection. in WWII, you could hide an entire carrier group at sea, I'm not sure that is still the case now. More than fast jets I guess aircraft like BAMS are assuring there is balance. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

The ability to impose a 3,000km maritime exclusion zone at will is a pretty useful card to have.
