*shudders* Hate to see your taste in women!:D

continue dreaming when the canadian dollar is worthed 1.25 US dollars and the Yen has reached records values of 96 yen per a single US dollar

What? One Canadian dollar buys .79 USD. That is a fact. You have it backwards. Read the news buddy.

in fact many Chinese companies have lost value due to the dollar devaluation.

Devaluation? Are you talking about currently? Dollar is looking pretty strong compared to most currencies right now.

NO i am not flat out wrong, a nation with aircraft manufacturing capability can build in a non total war economy easily 2 to 5 fighter jets a month.

This is just to supply orders.

MiG and Sukhoi easily can build for russia 5-10 aircraft a month if the money is available.

however in a time of defence cuts its hard for Russia since they do not have a war economy but just Lockheed can deliver 2-4 F-16s a month and most of them for export customers

see [B]Russia’s Sukhoi can produce up to 40 SU-35 aircraft a year – director-general (2008-07-08)

SO if you calculate a nation like Russia and the US can easily build 100 fighter aircraft a year

Are you kidding me? Trying to be funny maybe? 100 planes a year is NOTHING in a modern war, nothing. That will not even come close to attrition replacement. You just proved my point. You fight with what you start with, period.

41 F-16’s in one year? In a modern war that could be lost in a matter of hours or days…

You are flat out wrong.

It the RAAF runs out of weapons needs exports to replace them or allies to base their aircraft in Australian soil, so the Australians have a compromised defence, that requieres that the currrent political situation remains the same all the time, if by any major reason it changes they are uncapable to defend themselves against a power like China or Russia that build their own weapons.

This just shows even further how little you understand modern warfare. In todays modern war, you only get the weapons, platforms, planes, etc, that you start with. There is no speeding up assembly lines for F-35’s, J-10 etc. They are far too complex. This isn’t WWII, where you could outsource the making of a bomber to a car manufacturer. There will be NO new build attrition replacements in modern warfare. You get what you started with. Period.
