, so I don't think anybody would be eager to invade us. The most they'll do is probably take the Spratlys and that's it hehe.
Yes, paper planes with our external debt printed on it would be a deterrent enoughWe don't need expensive weapons.

I remember sa Red Storm Rising, the US used a stripped down F-15C which can breathe thin air armed with ASAT missiles to kill all the soviet military satellites in the lower atmosphere- Hi-tech na masyado.

Nothing is invincible my lad. Even the great Roman Empire fell and crumble to the ground. Even the undefeatable Napoleon was defeated. Even the Invincible Spanish Armada was sunk.

Though one wonders if these are just the marketing strategies of Russia in order to sell them to China. Hehe.

October 5th, 2005 02:34 PM #138yep, same here I'll look for my old Red Storm Rising paperback - very well written. Couldn't drop the book, read it in one whole morning.
*Mojo, modeller ka rin ba kasi link mo is from jaguarmodels. I want to get a 1/200 Sovermenny Class Destroyer from trump but it will take forever to super-detail.

Grabe... andaming individual threads sa loob nitong thread.
As for the choppers, we don't need expensive gunships like the Apache or multi-role choppers like the Blackhawk. What we need is a simple and agile multi-role helicopter for ground fire support, recon and troop transport. I think the British Westland Lynx would serve that purpose well. What's even better is that it is very agile and easy to fly. A plus, given the conditions here in the Philippines.
As for the nuke question. 2 kilotons is definitely enough to take out a carrier group, even with a near miss, as EMP would take out all unshielded electronics close enough to the blast. And that includes just about all the radar and surveillance equipment.
The point is moot, though... there are no countries aggressive towards the US that have enough of a naval presence to get close to the CBGs during a war. Peacetime is another matter. Remember the cruiser that got hit by that exocet missile? Technology counts for nothing if you're not expecting an attack. And it counts for less than that in Urban/Jungle Guerilla warfare, which is about the only fighting that counts nowadays.
