Haven't heard from Shuja Nawaz in a while, you might find it interesting @Saiyan0321 @t90tankguy @Joe Shearer

Post what you are listening to or just something you would like to share music related! Last few months ...in the mornings lately as I wake up + coffee/tea + eat breakfast + read the paper etc (or check in on this forum lol), I generally have some gentle bluegrass or appalachian folk music...

In the end though AFG has to officially recognise the border as it currently stands otherwise its backburner issue they will surface whenever it feels advantageous to them to do so.

Was the claim at 3nm originally starting out?

Indeed alibaba owns it, they bought it around 2015. A whole bunch of editors and columnists were fired...it caused huge amount of controversy at the time, and results at SCMP overall is there to see for everyone.

Pretty ridiculous how long this was delayed. @500 I was wondering if Israel has released any future plans for itself regarding AWACS, it operates the one 707 (ELM 2075) and 2 gulfstreams (ELW-2085) currently I believe.

I like to understate things....safer than overstating hehe. You can always build on top of an understatement...compared to subtract-fix an overstatement.

Well they never went that far to get that kind of tag (and doubt they were headed that way even with the CCP brazen takeover of HK recently), but definitely heavily CCP influenced/edited compared to before lets say. I remember reading SCMP from the 90s growing up in HK, it was very different...

Excellent set of vids to watch in your free time (I give them chronologically here): Recommended to sub to the channel because he will be uploading more in this series with time. @KAL-EL @Vergennes @Dante80 @Joe Shearer

They are now assigned name columbia class: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia-class_submarine Construction start is planned next year and 10 years later, entry into service.

I remember when these were brand new (and they cancelled the rest of project coz too expensive etc and eventually went for virginia class for SSN)...they sure have seen some wear and tear now in these pictures, understandably so!

Yah this is somewhat what I was referring to earlier too. But % wise how much of the cross IOR traffic (i.e CHN to gulf and CHN to suez and CHN to RSA cape etc) stops at Indian ports? I don't think very many as bulk carriers and tankers are quite long range these days:

Interesting to see SCMP applying pressure on CCP for it. Lately SCMP has been more pro-CCP last decade or so.

Welcome to @tanveer666 (y)

bdmilitary/defesca are a rumour mill 99% of time. Apparently HISAR was also selected according to them last year in 2019. But in actuality the selection is to be made now. HISAR (from what I have heard behind scenes) has a good chance to get selected because BD wants to continue to improve...

But then again, it reminds me somewhat of how PRC and ROC go about doing their affairs and business (at least before the last cpl years when things have turned way more frosty). i.e PRC and ROC both assert full territorial claims on each other, both stating themselves to be the only legitimate...

Well met. Welcome my friend. Yeah I think the significance of the 12nm lies not with the islands close to Turkish coast etc (given the median rule by narrowness)....but the further interior aegean islands/rocks where 12nm would be applied from each one of them, effectively presenting a full...

Ah this makes things clearer then. By extending to 12 nm in western area, Greece can then potentially use this precedent later for 12nm claim in aegean from each of its islands there as shown in wiki under "Aegean dispute" (max potential for both parties in aegean using 12nm): From what I...

Hope HISAR wins it.

If they are extending it to 12nm now (which UNCLOS does allow for as long as medians are not upset like say around corfu/albania)...what exactly did they have it as before this?
