UAV constitutes agression does it? What was a Russian Mig doing in Abkazia air space?

will you be okay if I send a UAV over the UK. are you sure you wont shoot it down....???

according to the georgians they have been regularly doing this and this is the second UAV shot down in the last few months. so if that isnt aggression , I dont know what is.

regarding the russian mig, abkhazia said that they have given basing rights for russian units. What's wrong with that?

Clearly its provactive by the Georgians and clearly its provocative on the part of the Russians. Basically its handbags at dawn.

Tell you what, what would you say if China decided to put Chinese jets in Pakistan controlled Kashmir after being invited to do so by Pakistan, what would you say to that?

cirrrocco · 04-23-2008, 12:12 PM

What can we do.??? We cant do anything. Pakistan did the same and giften 65000 Sq km of land to china. did we do anything..Nooo..

It is thgh a diff issue if those chinese planes start flying into kashmir or other parts of India..Then we will send a couple of cruise missiles down that airfield. Hope I made my point clear.

Pakistan can do and call whoever they want, if they stay within their national boundaries, but the situation is different if they start sending chinese planes across the border.

Also added later: That new port gwadar that the chinese built for secondary sub pens , is pretty close to India and I am sure there will be in the near future chinese ships based there.. Can India do anything ofensive..I dont think so. The most we will do , is a diplomatic demarche.

According to Georgia, its their air space.

well according to the abkhazians , the territory is theirs and they control 85 percent of the country. so who are you going to believe, the georgians or the entity that is local to the land and has been continuously governing for quite some time.

There is also a UN force patrolling the buffer zone and in 1994 a cessation of hostilities was declared.

and I dont think it is right of georgia to send in UAV's when there is a buffer zone separating the two entities..

fairy snuff - but we do not know where the drone actually was, and probably never will.

elbmek, ur a military person, do you think the video transmitted by a uav will have gps co ordinates?? It should have , shouldn't it.

but yeah, i guess nations are going to fighting over small pieces of land long after we are gone.. I guess that's how the world and mankind is.

Not so, young sir! The services had drones long before you were born. They were targets for gunnery in those days.
