DTN News - IRAN SPECIAL REPORT: Ludicrous To Attack Iran And Devastate Global Economy

(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - September 26, 2012: Should  USA or Israel proceed with its venture to attack Iran on pretext of nuclear factor, the war will eventually spread around the globe with countries taking sides.

The energy lanes of crude oil disrupted or stopped creating a shortage of products, rise of inflation and havoc in the world economy and not sparing a single country resulting in high unemployment in most developed countries and globally reflecting civic unrest. 

The above scenario could be feasible, but not factual as no country in the world would be ludicrous to act against Iran and devastate global economy. U.S. would get sucked into war if Israel strikes Iran.

DTN News - CHINA DEFENSE NEWS: China Navy Takes Delivery of First Aircraft Carrier

(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - September 24, 2012: China's first aircraft carrier was handed over Sunday to the navy of the People's Liberation Army, state press said, amid rising tensions over disputed waters in the East and South China Seas.

The handover ceremony of the 300-metre (990-foot) ship, a former Soviet carrier called the Varyag, took place in northeast China's port of Dalian after a lengthy refitting by a Chinese shipbuilder, the Global Times reported.

During the handover ceremony the aircraft carrier raised the Chinese national flag on its mast, the PLA flag on its bow and the navy's colours on its stern, the short online report said.
A ceremony to place the ship into active service would be held sometime in the future, the paper said without elaboration.

China's defence ministry was unavailable to comment on the ceremony.

The announcement comes at a time of heightened tensions over maritime disputes in the Asia-Pacific region, where China's growing assertiveness has put it on a collision course with Japan, Vietnam and the Philippines.

DTN News - CHINA DEFENSE NEWS: Two Models of Chinese 5th-Gen Fighter In Works (PHOTOS)

DTN News - CHINA DEFENSE NEWS: Two Models of Chinese 5th-Gen Fighter In Works (PHOTOS)

(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - September 19, 2012: The Chinese military has leaked first photos of a brand new lightweight fighter with external characteristics that allow the jet fifth-generation attribution. Some pictures suggest it could be used on future Chinese aircraft carriers.

Shenyang Aircraft Industry Group (SAC), one of the leading aircraft design and manufacturing corporations of China’s aviation industry, has rolled out a prototype that might eventually become Chinese analogue to America’s F-35.

The aircraft bears a certain resemblance to Lockheed Martin’s F-35 Lightning II, and even reportedly has the codename F-60. Though absolutely no characteristics of the prototype have been unveiled, one major difference is obvious: unlike its American relative, China’s F-60 has two engines.

The pictures of the Chinese technology demonstrator suggest that the engines the aircraft is currently equipped with do not have thrust vectoring nozzles which might suggest the prototype is at too early a stage of testing to get more sophisticated and powerful propulsion package.

Inclined twin vertical tail and wide-spaced ram air inlets are reminiscent of Lockheed Martin’s F-22 Raptor Joint Strike Fighter.

A blurred photo from China Military Report website is the only proof that SAC’s F 60 aircraft has successfully been airborne.

DTN News - INDIA DEFENSE NEWS: FGFA – Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft Sukhoi T-50 Quantum Leap For Indian Aerospace

(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - September 19, 2012: Two significant developments have stirred up the world of military aviation this year. In March, the U.S. Air Force revealed it had started work to field a new Long Range Strike Bomber by the 2020s. This will be first new American strategic bomber to be built after the Cold War.

The signing of the Sukhoi T-50 fifth generation fighter aircraft contract propels India to joint developer of the world’s most advanced stealth aircraft.

How much the global balance of power has shifted since the Cold War days was clear when it was revealed that the aircraft the American bomber might encounter in the skies will have a large Indian signature – in more ways than one. 

In August, the Indian Air Force announced that India and Russia are getting set to ink the final R&D contract for the Sukhoi T-50 fifth generation fighter aircraft (FGFA) by the end of the year or early-2013. The contract is worth more than US$ 11 billion, and according to the terms of the agreement both countries will share 50 percent of the costs.
