University of Sydney Associate Professor Salvatore Babones has called for the United States to permanently place a new First Fleet in Darwin, given China is pointing a “hypothetical dagger” at Australia.

Horrific

Why? This is affecting the 1.2 million pakistanis only. The rest 8 million or so others (Indians, bangladeshis, filipinos etc) stand to benefit....in fact India already benefitting according to the article.

Finally they are back to a common sense pragmatic approach. Wonder which Air India a/c they will pick. Maybe one of the A320? It would roughly be something like a wedgetail.

Interesting, are you working on drawing up your concept right now? Will be interesting to see (I'll give more analysis then once things fleshed out). Right now I'm visualising something like a V-22 osprey, but maybe fan-ring based rather than rotor based...though maybe rotor would be an easier...

All important questions for the Pakistani administration to have figured out before getting into too many geopolitical messes. I guess lets see, I am not optimistic they have much idea what they are doing...kind of throw things (as emotions dictate) at dart board and see what sticks and pick...

Issue is fans and rotors are good at moving large volumes of air slowly to generate the thrust. But that is not what a high performance fighter is going to be after, the are stuck with medium bypass at most given the significant incident velocities they have to face (thus needing some portion of...

Would like to add, even at this scale, there is a fine line to cross for it to happen. Jupiters 4th (major) moon Callisto is far enough away from the other 3 that it is not in resonance lock. Same thing with the planets around the Sun, some of them at some points may have been in resonance with...

When you have a chance, tell him to drop by here again from time to time as he can. He has made an account as @t90tankguy , but I suppose he is busy a lot.

Hehe Himmel! Though this has some bearing on the history of the heavens in a way *chortles*...brings it all together. Sorry for the headache ...I like to offer you a buffet old friend, and you may partake of what you please as you want...but maybe the selection is overdone sometime heh. @T-123456

Oh definitely, he is probably the one of them I most identify with myself. He had massive disagreements and arguments with just about everybody (esp Peres)...he had his fair share of mistakes in his younger years. But a headstrong fellow with enough daring and boldness when it was called for...

Some reason I didnt get or skipped over the tag you gave. Anyways yes hard naval assets work in 3's generally....extends to all manner of warship, carrier and sub. Basically 1 is in first half of downtime (returned from duty, crew RnR, any maintenance etc) Another is in 2nd half of downtime...

I am just looking at the people he's picking for his administration too (since Biden is really not all there already). None of them really have said much in opposition to Trump w.r.t CAATSA...and they definitely want it applied full 100% on NATO allies (they were clapping wildly behind scenes...

Not really. It hit brick wall lot earlier than that (as I explain in my post there)....but it served a role within that constraint anyway. You will not see a project like it again...not with F-35 much better concept. Well T/W, the larger it is the better it is for aerodynamic performance for...

A good channel to be subbed to for some flight vids of the hornet close up:

TIFWIW, he's back again: Elbit offers to build 70% of 155 mm artillery gun in India; at about half the cost of the indigenous ATAGS By Ajai Shukla Business Standard, 9 December 20 After quoting far cheaper than French gunmaker Nexter in a government tender to supply the Indian Army with...
