He is one of the loudmouth brigade that have no sense w.r.t shutting up (and staying away from politics, esp the geopolitical kind w.r.t countries we have no direct issue with) after retiring from military. Similar to loudmouth brigade to our west. The Major Gaurav Arya is another one. Small...

If you only have half your land tradeable rather than full amount....you are only going to get half the valuation you otherwise would. Similarly if a country is near 100% integrated with USD-liquidity supply+consumption chains internationally...it will get a far different valuation using that...

Well you hoped correctly as I led with per capita being the thing you are looking for as for the "wealthier". PPP per capita, Japan is like 42k....compared to India 7k or so. Thats like 6 times "wealthier" (raw influx per year). So I don't get the big deal making out nominal vs PPP argument...

And now the Aussies are even saltier and foul than normal (from all the crickey thats a big'un critters), coz we thumped them at Cricket on their own turf quite handily...that too with our "B" team as well hehe. I'd avoid them for a while altogether if possible hehe (j/k @Webslave )...

Anything of such size/novelty will be done in India (as assembler etc). This is more for stuff we already have scoped out with France and Europe that now get better assurance due to no ITAR in them now...if say ITAR become problem w.r.t US components due to CAATSA. Let us first see what Biden...

Richer/productive is more a per capita argument. Japan certainly produces/consumes more per capita each year. This is not a PPP vs nominal thing. Of course India's total in PPP these days is going to be larger than Japan's. It is an aggregate of a population more than 10 times larger. If the...

Great timing w.r.t Indian market/collab/JV...some S-400 sanctions are coming our way it looks like.

I see you are a man (or woman?) of good taste as well hehe :D

There seems to be some conflation between relevance of: 1) GDP (nominal, USD , current) 2) GDP (nominal, USD, constant) 3) GDP (PPP, USD "international", current/constant) w.r.t their applicability for things like production, consumption, industry and so on....all the way down to specific...

OK you can do the same spiel as you want. I can retort with what held ya back on basic mortality rates, polio and demographic transition if "GDP" was such an out-perfomer for so long from your end? Anyone govt person can jot/claim a toilet on some stat they want to....but health metrics are far...

So I guess now with peace deal, the air corridor also extends above the land corridor for AZ to use for logistic connection?

GDP is overrated figure for bulk of cold war (given it did not measure non USD liquidty based activity very well at all given small trade volume involved). India was doing better than China on that number, which is laughable if you look at the energy consumption (far higher in China) for...

Sinop would not give enough range I think for a mid size rocket debris field (due east launch). Thrace would give most window for it, say if Turkey develops a mid size launcher quickly from the 1st iteration worked on now.

20 billion saved a year versus 1 trillion saved a year says very different. Is that 7 times or something bit more than that? You can see the results of it bear out this decade some more. The past decade already put this chasm behind us, just sticking to Turkey...

Has there been any analysis anywhere of possible locations for Turkey future spaceport? No location is generally given where I looked briefly other than such facility is upcoming: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Launch_System_(Turkey)...

What was air corridor route taken to get from naxicivan and AZ mainland and vice versa? Or I guess both was done during peacetime so it was no issue?

Was wondering that too. Will the crew be interrogated on it?

Yes among other things, it can also do ambush and bait cover to help F-16s and TF-X (with larger missile payload) sitting behind like wolfpack. During 1990s up to about 2010 (and even beyond) this was designated role of F-5 for Singapore AirForce (I have this on good authority a few...

It will appear there once its officially picked. But it will be GE-414.

There's no end to them, if you don't improve two crucial things: psyche and institutions. Some strong guy, hang-man or head chopper isn't going to do anything at all...other than establish his rule (i.e buy some time for "aint I greatest thing since sliced bread"???) by doing such things. Then...
