We know these bro..but this reality was before the US nuked them..as e be so,japan is di militarized all thanks to the US. We know japan was a world power same as Germany..but they no get level again

zinaunreal:


Japan purposely decided to curb thier assault army don't talk like they cannot be dangerous over night

patrickmuf:
Lol...

The fact Putin is turning to mercenaries is a pointer to the fact that he doesn't think the war so serious?

The Russian military is large enough so much so that she can even deploy 100,000 men to Ukraine yet still have millions more in Russia however, Putin doesn't consider Ukraine so much as a threat hence his use of mercenaries for the ground invasion to avoid any loses (Russian military personnel).

Talking about display of weaponry, nobody promotes their military might like the US. You can go on YouTube to have a sneak peek...

Military spending doesn't equate to military might. The US have bases in so many countries and have their Carriers patrolling the seas. Do you know the financial implication involved therein? Not all of that military budget goes into research and production of military soft and hardwares...

patrickmuf:
See me see talk...You mean the Japanese Navy is stronger than that of Russia and China?

This Nairaland’s sef, you get to see a whole lot of funny takes.

Appleyard:
Gradually, Japan is kissing the islands final goodbye. The Russians will now heavily militarised them and turn them into their backyard footrest just as they plan to nationalize the more than 500 western leased commercial planes now stranded in Russia after the west introduced sanctions.

Sanctions are a two-edged sword that hurts both sides in a brawl.

America is leading so many weak minded countries astray....... Wetin concerned Japan and russian war with Ukrainian?


Na because of stupid follow follow, they want to drag themselves into war with Russia...... America no go help you, Japan pls get sense

KaluwisxPRO:



Russia should be fast in Invading Japan. I wan check something. You think Japan is a weak country like Nigeria and Ukraine that can be taken for a ride.

The balls on the Japanese is why they sanctioned Russia even though they know they have a treaty together.

patrickmuf:
You guys mistake a thriving economy for a thriving military...

Russia at present has one of the best fighter jets around i.e. The Su-57 with its only competitors being the F-22 Raptor of the US Airforce and J-20 of China Liberation Army Airforce. All the above are fifth generations fighter jets with stealthy capabilities...

In the second Cadre of Airforce jets, Russia still has its representative in the Su-35...

In terms of missile defense system, the S-400 is just about the most potent missile defense system in the world. Most US allies have abandoned the US missile defense system for that of Russia. S-500 is even ready...

In terms of hypersonic missiles, Russia is in the lead closely followed by China...

The Russia Navy is second only to the US thanks to the multiple carriers in the US fleet but then again, how potent is a carrier in the midst of potent hypersonic missiles in a war? I bet you, a carrier will be sunk before it gets any close to Russia or any world power in any case of a war...

As for the war in Ukraine, Russia hasn't deployed 20% of her Military arsenal yet Ukraine is bleeding...

shogsman:
Is it really smart for a weak unmilitarized country like Japan to be pushing it's luck with russia.i mean the whole country is like an earthquake and tsunami waiting to happen,it won't take much to cause another disaster for them

Oddfinder1:

Smile. Japan was the power house of that region Infact if not for the US Japan would have turned China to a great rice farm. But those days are gone. Just like Germany, they're no real treat from Japan!
Japan is now like an extension of Europe. Very prosperous economically but weak in terms of military..have you ever heard Japan making treats or carrying out military drills?

KaluwisxPRO:


US is steering clear because like Afghan, a new president comes with his own foreign policy. No US troops on foreign soil in a war that is not the US.

Walkee:
they have revoked visa free regime for Japan's own islands. Instead of reacting angrily, why don't Japanese people enter the island without visa let's see?
Imagine Ghana says we can't go to Ilorin without visa, why not go there and see instead of still bragging after being restricted in your own territory?
There's no balls or bravery here. USA bombed Japan to submission. Japan is more or less a US colony now

Originalsly:


Aircraft carriers..... why shift to troops? Reread what I wrote before commenting.

Russia is coming hard on each and every country that refused to stay neutral about tgis war...they thought Russia was Iraq or Afghanistan..if i am Russia, i won't return to the treaty even after this crisis with Ukraine

Rubbiish:

Japan military is not a weak one bro
Japan is among the top ten countries with the best airforce & navy all over the world. U can't refer to such a country as weak unmilitarized!

KaluwisxPRO:


Olodo, both countries occupy different part of the Island as they’re about 4 of them. Read book, you say no. See how you disgrace yourself

Oddfinder1:

U see? We have been saying thesame thing
While Japan was curbing its Army, Russia, China and North Korea expanded. Today Japan cannot stand any of these countries independently

KaluwisxPRO:
Japan is cleared to decimate Russia’s Air Force and their weak Navy.

Russian ground troop is zero, that’s gonna be a big blow to Russian military if Putin miscalculate again.

shogsman:

It's one of the countries that spends the lowest percentage of it's annual budget on millitary in the world. Compared to the likes of Russia, china they are weak. Of course they still have good millitary capabilities but they are not millitarily focused like other countries

Aufbauh:
The effects of the sanctions is really taking toll on the defiant Mr. Putin.
His desperation & frustration occasioned by the unforseen is pushing him to take irrational & conscienceless decisions. He'll soon be box into a tight corner.

He might end up winning the war in Ukraine but he can't sustain or keep the spoil of the war.

MangekyoAlt:
In WW2, after the Soviet union declared the war on Japan and Launched Attacks against them that forced them to surrender, they got the Kuril Island as spoils of war
Now Russia, out of generosity, allowed Japanese to continue visiting the island and even living there without visa. They even told the Japanese govt that they will give them back the island once a peace treaty has been reached.
Meanwhile, Japan were slapping consecutive rounds of sanctions on Russia, back to back to back. Russia don abandon the peace treaty now, meaning there no hope of getting the island back again and Russia has stopped the free visa to Japanese elements who want to visit the island.

Flets:
How many fronts can Russia really hold out on?
A lot of miscalculation so far by Russia considering they significantly looted their military budget in recent years.

What is the end game for Russia and how does he intend to achieve it cos it seems the average Russian will suffer a big deal in few months time.

MangekyoAlt:

E don finish. I am reading now that the thing really pain the Japanese people
I'm sure we will start seeing some hypersonic missiles stationed in that island soon

KaluwisxPRO:


Are you sure you’re alright? You’re talking about an Island that belongs to Japan.

Japan a tiny country that fought with the Soviet Union, that’s not the same as Russia.

Japan has a much more advanced technology than Russia even before the War. Russia/not Soviet is big for nothing with old tech, cut and join tanks.

Being a bully does not equate strength.

FYI, Russia and Japan occupies the same Island on different parts. Japan has stood up to them by challenging their withdrawal from the treaty after joining the west to Sanction them, Russian should move forward and lay claim to all of the island for round two and their final burial.

Oddfinder:

Ypu guys really underestimate Russia...this was how Ukraine was pushed..japan wey no get Army again
