    Both Sunzi ( Sun Tzu, in the old way of naming him: it means Master Sun ) & Clausewitz would have a bit to say about that…

    You aren’t going to have military dominance, unless you’ve significantly out-invested your competitors/opponents.

    Pretending that India’s competitors/opponents are significantly out-invested by Modi’s India … is a pathetic joke.

    LMAO

    India’s next-year budget is around $80B, whereas China’s is around $300B.

    ( that AND the fact that Modi has “bet the farm” on Russia’s aiding India against China, when Russia’s now an economic-vassal-state of China: they won’t lift a finger against their new puppetmasters )

    “Dominance”, MY ASS.
