Taiwan paid $4.1 billion in 2017 for upgrade of 141 F-16 A/B Block 20 to V-standard (assembly done locally). $8 billion in 2019 for 66 brand new F-16V Block 70 starting delayed delivery in 2024. $20 billion? Even with missiles, spare engines and parts the total sum is insanely high.

Meant Germany regaining it’s dominant position in armored vehicle market throughout Europe. Poland won‘t buy any German armor in the foreseeable future - that‘s for sure 😉

According to other reports it was a 10kg Far Eastern sea eagle with 2m wingspan. A very fat bird so to speak 😁 F-35 has DSI air ducts which may have diverted the impacting bird to other important airframe parts before reaching the „cutting“ turbine blades and the fighter body is packed to the...

The Polish defence community doesn't seem very happy about that deal. They would prefer producing more homegrown Krabs. With the new center-left Polish government coming in, they'll cancel the domestic production and big orders for hundreds of K9PL and K2PL. Hanwha and Hyundai Rotem would have...

The belly landing was a result of the severe damages on F-35A due to an "eagle strike" mid-flight. Shit happens, from 40 down to 39 stealth fighters. Possible deal for 25 more F-35As in the pipeline...

The last election in Gaza was 17 years ago in 2006. After coming to power they killed as many Fatah opponents they could and elections no more in their Islamistic stripe of land. Terrorising their own people who dare to oppose them.

Correct, Japan and the Republic of Korea have formidable navies and shipbuilding industries /s

No, it‘s not fine by me to put war journos on a kill list with Hamas terrorists. But would you call guys like him a non-partisan „photojournalist“?

You were questioning my right to post on this thread as a Korean. I have any right to post here my opinion regardless of my nationality, dude. And please enhance your reading comprehension before making up bold accusations based on your deficient interpretation of my writings. And the rest of...

I‘m only explaining you the reality of things. Without any hard power war crimes can‘t be punished by the ICC. German and Japanese war criminals were hanged after the allied forces fought a World War, won and punished the perpetrators. Allied war crimes like the bombing of Dresden by „Bomber...

Please educate yourself. Israel like US, Russia and many other countries doesn‘t recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC/The Hague. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Criminal_Court_investigation_in_Palestine „Israel is not a member of the ICC and disputes its jurisdiction on the basis...

Not denying or debunking the reports or that it didn’t happen. Still I‘m not sure if there is 100% proof during this fog of war.

Killing 1.400+ Israelis (soldiers, women, elderly, children) isn‘t an „individual“ occurence, it‘s a pattern. Then taking 240 civilians as hostages is also an individual strategy? Calling me biased but not recognizing your own partsianship is laughable at best. I don‘t claim objectivity, I‘m...
