    Ethics is also a huge problem why the US is having such a hard time fighting the Iraqi insurgents.
    The insurgents can run and hide where US soldiers cannot bring a gun into. Insurgents can use hollow-points, take hostages, and shoot anyone in sight. The US cannot do that; it's not entirely territorial advantages anymore, it's rules and ethics.

        Frangibles would be even better, and the public wouldn't make such a fuss about it, since uneducated people can't tell the difference between frangibles and FMJs at a glance, other than color. It's the image that counts to the public.

        And I don't agree that hollow-points are "inhumane." They kill people faster.

              Active Duty Uniformed Troop Strength
              Rank Country Troops
              1 China 2,250,000
              2 USA 1,625,852
              3 India 1,325,00


              I don't think India will win.
              The us outnumbers them plenty but the Indians would know the land. Plus, if india was winning we would not keep fighting them. Until every last darn man suitable for combat is dead. The US has the largest military budget in the world. Now the Us's nucular arsenal is much larger too.

                Thats also what India can do they know their land. I have no proof of this point though.

                  From my studies of modern war, it is the small unit action (ie, company level) that decides the battle. In all turning points of any given battle, you will find that one single company is the one that made the breakthrough or the one who didn't break that stemmed the battle.

                  Thus, it is really irrevelent to talk about how many men and how many tanks and how many spaceships you have. It's what can you bring to the battlefield and more importantly, properly place that one company at the right place at the right time to decide the battle. The problem is knowing where the right place and when the right time is?

                  In the past, the solution was to place troops at all places and at all times to ensure you have that one company at the proper place and proper time. The advent of technology not only allows the current US Forces to know that place and time but also to dictate where it is, when it is, and more importantly what it is.

                    Or the US could just go this route:



                    In which case it would take about 35 minutes to remove all forms of life from the Indian subcontinent.

                    It's better to be our friend. ;)

                          The Surya ICBM will be a reality soon(5-10 yrs). Also, we're leasing a Nuke Sub from Russia, and making our own in the future.

                            Let's look at a few points here.

                            1) Currently NONE of the Indian tested nukes could fit onto a rocket.

                            2) The Indians have yet to develop MRV and certainly not to the point of minaturizing a nuke to be a MRV

                            3) The SURYA is still on the drawing boards and have not left electron (computer disk) form yet (5-10 years? Try 15-20 if the N5 are any indication).

                            4) The Russians are NOT helping you with nuke weaponization.

                            5) The nuke sub you're leasing is NOT an SLBM

                            6) You have no SLBM even in the conceptual stage

                            7) India has at best 120 nukes. The US has over 2000 and from parts could produce another 10,000 within the year.

                            No, you can't hit the US. Not by a long shot.

                              Then you obviously can't do the same.

                              Someday you may be able to respond in kind, but not now, and not for the forseeable future.

                              By the time India has a major ICBM force lord only knows what sort of form the US NMD shield will have taken.

                              ICBMs may very well be obsolete by the time you field them in large numbers, and by then the US will probably be capable of just vaporizing an enemy city from orbit with battle-lasers or whatever.

                              Remember kids, the US R&D budget alone is bigger than the ENTIRE budget of the next biggest military spender.

                                Oooooh, that's got ME shakin' in my boots NOW. Wonder where the US will be in its technology in the next 5-10 years?
