China Thread

You want China to have a monopoly on the Semiconductor industry?

That’s what you’re implying.

And that’s completely stupid.

He loves a good unprovoked invasion. Israel was attacked that's different and wrong.

You have finally turned the corner!!!

Thanks!

Chinese military’s rifle-toting robot dogs raise concerns in Congress​

Congress is worried that robot dogs with machine guns will be bounding onto the battlefield in the near future.

During last week’s debate over the annual defense authorization bill, House lawmakers inserted language in the massive military policy measure to require a new assessment from the Defense Department on “the threat of rifle-toting robot dogs used by China” in potential future conflicts.

The United States has an an entire
Unmanned:
- Army
- Navy
- Air Force
- Space Force

Russia has the nukes, but far and away the United States and China have the most powerful militaries in the history of civilization.

There are vast underground bunkers in America where they test these machines. China aren’t the only master builders in the world.

In the end, these machines still need to be accompanied by human boots on the ground.

Exclusive: Animal Defenders Say China Still Allowing Open Slaughter at Yulin Dog Meat Festival Despite Growing Public Disgust​

This year’s Yulin Lychee and Dog Meat Festival – a harrowing display in Guangxi, China, in which vendors slaughter dogs openly for consumption on the street – appeared to attract significantly less interest that prior iterations, animal rights organizations told Breitbart News this week, though not due to any action to deter the event by Chinese authorities.

EXCLUSIVE: Now China is trying to Genetically Modify American Soybeans in latest infiltration plot warns top Republicans​

The top Republican lawmaker is sounding the alarm after a Chinese agricultural firm was approved to create 'genetically engineered soybeans' for consumption in the U.S.

The suspiciously rapid approval by the Department of Agriculture (USDA) of Chinese biotech firm Qi Biodesign should raise major alarm bells, says Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Chairman John Moolenaar, R-Mich.

That company, which specializes in gene editing, is partially funded by the Chinese government, he claims in a letter to President Biden's USDA Sec. Tom Vilsack exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com.

US Coast Guard spots Chinese warships off American coast​

The Coast Guard spotted four Chinese warships off the coast of Alaska in the Bering Sea, officials said Wednesday.

The vessels were in international waters but thin the US exclusive economic zone, an area that extends 200 nautical miles offshore in which America has rights over fishing, energy and other mineral resources.

Allvin: USAF Sticking to 100 B-21s as It Considers Something New

USAF may not buy more than 100 B-21s as something better may be developed by the time those aircraft are built, CSAF Gen. David Allvin said.

www.airandspaceforces.com

Since manned NGAD is looking less likely, disappointing, Some banter about the B21 being an arsenal plane..carry the new AIM-260 or AIM-174. Double the number of B-21 and you have a super long range with long loiter, and VLO force without need for 250M fighters and new tankers.

Sounds like an innovative approach.

NGAD is trending to unmanned? Boo that.

You know I’m “more dots on the map” guy.

Sea based assets are better than Land based (), and stealthy Air based assets even better. More dots (mobile) on the map to put strikes on target from.

Yea, loading em out with SM-6 sounds pretty bad ass.

I like it.

But I want the Naval Gen-6 carrier based fighter, too. We’re gonna need it.

Hey, I want manned NGAD as well, but with AI stuff, I mean wow, you could design 15G rated unmanned fighters, or send totally unmanned bombing runs. What disappoints me is that statement that implied it has already flown and has unbelievable performance, yet now have to shelve it for budget constraints. I am not even sure I remember rhe FRA of 2023, especially since the IRA Act was implemented in similar timeframe.

What the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 Means for Defense Spending

You are not going to conquer the long range requirement of the Pacific without a large aircraft, and say 100 B-21 loadouts sounds great to me, while avoiding the need for vulnerable and expensive tankers.

Unfortunately, I donthink FA-XX is going to happen any tine soon.

Did you notice the part where they 'never entered US airspace'?
