China flies the domestically designed two-seat JH-7 Flying Leopard, around 240 of which serve in the PLA Air Force and Naval Air Force.

The Indian Air Force was not satisfied with the Su-57’s performance. Heres What You Need to Remember: India’s next steps following the dissolution of the stealth-fighter agreement with Russia will be of interest—for its military significance, but also as a gauge of how comfortable New Delhi is with further deepening its relationship with the United States. In April 2018, India’s Defense Secretary Sanjay Mitra met with a Russian delegation to announce that India was withdrawing from its...

In 2005, USS Ronald Reagan, a newly constructed $6.2 billion dollar aircraft carrier, sank after being hit by multiple torpedoes. Heres What You Need to Remember: Diesel submarines are ideal for patrolling close to friendly shores. But U.S. subs off Asia and Europe need to travel thousands of miles just to get there, and then remain deployed for months at a time. A diesel submarine may be able to traverse that distance—but it would then require frequent refueling at sea to complete a long ...

Rise of the East: How Asia Is Becoming a Continent of Great Navies The eastward shift in naval power will continue in 2030, a product of both declining defense budgets in Europe and growing economies in Asia. Heres What You Need To Remember: Could China really reach 415 ships? Such a total would probably require twice as many submarines to be produced annually, a boost in destroyer production to achieve a net gain as older designs age out, and a huge increase in amphibious ships. It would also...

Much of Israel’s history has, for better or worse, been written with guns. From the 1948 War of Independence to today, Israeli forces have used firearms to defend the state or its interests on almost yearly basis. Images of Israeli forces rushing the West Bank in 1967 or escorting rescued hostages from Entebbe are synonymous with the Jewish State, and some of Israel’s weapons have become quite famous in their own right. Here are five of Israel’s deadliest, and most famous firearms. Uzi Su...

Total Garbage: 5 Worst Military Rifles in Military History None of these weapons were bad enough to lose a war, but they were often bad enough to cause the side using them to lose morale. Heres What You Need to Remember: The AMD-65 was developed while Hungary was a member of the Warsaw Pact, and differs from the AK-47 in a number of ways. It shortens the sixteen inch barrel of the AK-47 barrel to just twelve inches, and as a result the AMD-65 has a shorter range and is less accurate. The weapon...

These deadly weapons have earned their reputations. 

Israel’s nuclear arsenal is the worst-kept secret in international relations.

The B-1B was intended to deliver nuclear weapons to the Soviet Union. Fortunately, it never undertook that mission; instead, it ended up hunting insurgents in Afghanistan and firing cruise missiles at nearly abandoned Syrian air bases.

Between 1918 and 1942, Russia’s army was torn down and rebuilt four times. Heres What You Need To Remember: The Red Army had an unbelievable capacity for pain. In the first six months of Operation Barbarossa, the army was completely destroyed. Yet it managed to rebuild, and went on to defeat the most formidable war machine of that era. What do you do when your army is destroyed, over and over again? For Russia in the mid-twentieth century, the best answer was “build a new army.” Between ...
