lol grin. Do your research very well. US fear a war with Russia than with China. Please o! Don't even use the word "old" with Russia; that country has some of the most wicked weapons on earth in their arsenal. In fact, in some areas, they are teaching the US how to make weaponry. The first ever romotely operated battle tank, robotic army, driven by AI, are from Russia. They have the best Marine; best submarines. Right now, US is preparing to go to war with China, but NEVER with Russia. They know what is at stake!

Do you know why US did not go to war with Russia over Ukraine? All the advanced weapons you see in China are possible because Russia is building with them. Wait until there's another war and you'll see that Russian arm forces are very strong!

Have you asked yourself why Trump and even his arch enemies the Democratic party to come together against Huawei and anything China. When we speak Huawei, we don't just talk about phones and 5G. Those guys are into defense and weapons development especially when it comes to espionage

This is exactly why the West don't take the threats from Russia too serious. Basically most of their military gears are old and can fail with a moment notice.


But you see those short devils from Asia called Chinese, those ones are something else and biggest threat to West
What do you know about Russia, an error can be human or systemic doesn't mean it doesn't happen anywhere, Boeing 737 airplane ( an American made) that crashed and failed several times means we shouldn't have to take their airplane seriously ���.

Speak of what you know. Military issues is defiantly not among.
Are you aware that the US lost a $350m f 22 raptor two weeks ago and within a week lost an f35 stealth jet worth over $100m? All within the past month.
You now spew trash about Russia that lost an helicopter probably valued at less than $10m.
The fact is that military equipment fails, new, old, hi tech, low tech, expensive, cheap etc

submarine, battle tanks in this age and time that we're talking about cyber warfare. When Huawei tell you that they are a year and half ahead of everyone in 5G tech, what do you understand. If you know the capability of 5G on today's world, you will understand who has power. Shey na ordinary virus China use pause the whole world and bought American companies for cheap.


See eh. In today's battle and wars, espionage and cyber attacks are the biggest arsenal. I'm in no way belittling the power of tanks and shii but believe me,China no dey play. There are class of weapons America and Russia aren't making today because of their agreement to end the cold war. Meanwhile China wasn't part of the agreement and are very much into developing those. The said agreement will still be valid for at least two years more. Do you know what can happen between now and then. Bros eh. Unlike USA and Russia with lots of red lines and trying to score political points,China is an authoritarian regime that cares about results.


While America is developing bases that cost billions of dollars in different countries, China is giving countries loans they can't pay back and getting control of the most critical infrastructure of those countries. See Nigeria and her neighbors. America has bases almost around Nigeria, meanwhile China owns the most critical infrastructure in Nigeria. From rail to power to dams. China finances all. Same way everywhere else you go.

Well spoken bro..some here just talk to attract comment..I keep telling people that the Chinese are already becoming America's biggest threat not Russia but wouldn't listen. The Americans were able to defeat and dismantle Soviet after the cold war and since then Russia as a country has not been able to embark on war under it new name. Moreover most of their weapons were inherited from the then soviet. Funny the way I see jt..if only America's propaganda can break Soviet I wonder what Russia can do alone.I see China second and don't get me wrong Russia is still great

Russia has been modernizing it's military hardware over the past two decades and their current status is highly functional. Also the amount you spend does not equate to output or quality. America spends more than both Russia and China combined but the bulk is on recurrent expenditure while China and Russia is on upgrades and R&grin (don't forget they have over 600 bases and installations worldwide).

Finally the Mi8 is one of the most reliable copters ever designed so one crash means nothing. Military aircraft of all nations crash all the time.

The more reason why drones & unmanned aircraft's should take d front burner in modern warfare to cut down on the human causalities both from foot soldiers, infantries etc..
WW3 is going to be bloodiest cos they would employe every sinister methods in d book, Hacking, espionage, using patriot air defense, germ warfare, chemical, biological and nuclear attacks, stealth drones, Destroyers, frigates, air carriers, CIA, MI6, Mossad, nukes, ......... Name dem all of dem re going t be employed.. U will see a lot of betrayal & movement of allies across d maps. Its going t be messy!

You forgot to mention.
. Hacking into defense e-systems..

Why is there a chill about 5G..

The speed at which the compromise can be enacted whilst setting allies against each other, can be frightening..

Putin is playing out as the ChessGrandmaster..

No permanent friends nor enemies

A machine is a machine and anything could go wrong with it.

Within the past week, two 5th generation aircraft - F35 & F22 crashed at Eglin Air Force Base in training accidents. Were they are also worn out? Or should other nations dismiss their military effectiveness because they crashed? Easy bro

China can spend all it can but they can't be taken seriously if they can't land troops in neighbouring Taiwan. The US and Russia can project power globally more than the Chinese who have trouble asserting their pacific dominance in their own backyard. Russia is such a threat that most of Europe will kiss american ass for decades for Protection.

training accident which can be a human error.

Accidents happen for sure but the frequency differs

Do you know how many of such accidents happen also to US military on yearly basis? More than you can imagine. From Military Jet accidents during training to reconnaissance. Anything mechanical or electrical can malfunction anytime due to various reasons.

One of the most technically demanding aircrafts to fly. An helicopter is one machine that's actively trying to kill you as you try to keep it in the air.

The aerodynamic properties of an airplane makes it possible to land safely despite a loss of engines. But if it's an helicopter, you're done.

RIP to the dead.

What you have said is true...if a helicopter looses it's tail rotor there's no chance of landing the helicopter safely! sad
