Taiwan does not have an independence agenda. They have a "keep the status quo as is, we don't want to die" agenda. Yes, there are more...

Poseidon is a very notional capability to deliver a nuclear warhead against a coastal installation, bypassing American BMD. I am not...

UCAV/CCA "class" is best determined by size rather than geometry. YFQ-42/44 are about 6m long, from what I've read, and based on...

One of them has already made an appearance.

Remember, an autoloader in the hull doesn't always need to mean a carousel. I don't think carousel is likely anyway since CN uses...

That's an odd opinion tbh. The M10 was more of a 105mm somewhat air mobile tracked infantry direct fire support vehicle. The ZTQ15 is...

That is literally what people on Weibo including credible posters like Captain are saying, the gunsight is integrated into the turret...
