such an intervention might prove to be rather un-diplomatic lar.
we are not russia yet. (perhaps no link lar)
anws, i think such action should only be taken, (blantant intervention) only if the situation gets really out of hand.. i.e. they threaten to invade us or smth....
however, if we do that when there is no threat against us, we would be come the aggressor, and rage would be broadened from just the m-chiniese to singapore too. by then, the ties would be broken irreparably liao.

the russkies are destroying the georgian military infrastructure currently, (from straits times) .. not sure if its because of the media.. but it seems that russia is pushing it.
much media about this issue have been pro-georgian right?
perhaps with the decimation of much of the georgian military equipment, georgia would be able to reorganise their supplies or smth...
the straits times commented that NATO countries are "weak and poorly armed" to what extent is that true? would NATO be able to react in any significant manner to retaliate against the russians? lets say if they start doing the same to the others too....
sorry for saying so much, its the common test period, so i hardly have time to post... just my 2 cents (though i still read everyday, thank gosh its chinese tml! = nth to study)

from what i know, there was talk some time back in the US abt r&d into this area of devlopment, however, didnt recieve any updates, apparently, it was found that airships were much more efficient than aircraft, being able to transport huge amounts of cargo at a time, however they are also highly vulenerable to unpredictable weather situations
yea, air ballon for radar platform was out already, in usa again... economical way to have a awacs up 24/7

aircraft carriers seem to be uneccesary. our situation doesnt warrant one really. i guess the most we can go would be to base f-35 type aircrafts on the endurances as breif attachements, (to demonstrate that we have the capability ?)
but however not for long-term power projection purposes.
it sort of reminds me of the australian amphib ship thingy...superbugs on a crate.....
2 engines (A) are better than 1(B) of course lar.
if in A, you lose an engne, you still can fly back to fight another day....
in B, you lose an engine... bye bye... quite a waste of pilots eh?

(they flew directly overhead..) both in and out... not sure if its the same one though. is this related to any recent activities in the region (eg exercises etc?) ? or just normal operations...curious lar.
