I'll be getting to it soon again.
Another thing you must consider with all Taiwan analysis is the golden goose factor and how that looks for PRC post (hypothetical) war.
Down to detail of how do you manage the defeated Taiwanese population (who's worst fears they put as unlikely are now fully...
The other incompetency I can think of with this chain of events....is why wasn't there a strong enough self-destruct if you already have a dummy warhead...on such "blank" rounds effectively. i.e if something actually does get launched, you need a way to destroy it onboard ASAP over safe area...
X-craft theory (after I mused) starts bringing up more questions rather than answering them...not to mention it has its core set of incompetencies/risks involved/baked in.
It seems redundant for me to continue with my (speculative) theory of an X-craft (Sigint or otherwise) if this is what will...
Don't hold your breath.... I didn't see much accountability (at least openly) over the IFF Mi-17 friendly fire incident during the PAF strike post balakot.
The caveat with that, was if its just regular test. Those are done in different way from pokhran test range (in this vicinity) for a reason. They would not run regular flight or system tests like this (wherever it was launched from and going to)... I suspect this was something else....the key is...
I will explore it in more detail a bit later.
It was on purpose, and it involved a "dark" payload for signal gathering IMO.
The incompetence here was a failure in the system itself (brahmos does fail from time to time) at some point after launch....whatever caused the veering towards the...
Some snippets to ponder for members (TIFWIW):
Pentagon Intelligence:
Ukraine has got about 56 fixed wing fighters left in the airforce, or about 80% of what they had before the war. Russian SEAD/DEAD capabilities does not impress.
Ukrainian intelligence:
18 Russian battalion tactical...
Seems really stupid to be doing these tests so close to border if its just a flat out normie test or sim....that makes no sense to me tbh, these are not cheap systems without requisite CnC robustness and SOP (that would follow NOTAM and enough distance away...generally indian ocean tests).
I...
cpl days back, some gunmen shot dead one of the IC-814 hijackers too....the same MC that slit that guys throat

@Viva_vietnamm bro, all you need are tractors, sea mines and buffed up mud-camo sappers to make PLA run away again if they stir up trouble with you guys again....
TR Lira is taking a hammering again, because of the earlier depletions that have led to them being insufficient for unexpected rainy days like we are going to have this year.
It is approaching 15 Lira to USD now (the earlier peak was around 16.8)....because of the inelastic imports (energy...
