Wow. I can't remember the last time I logged on here. Years maybe! Long time no see! So I'm looking for educated input here. If the US, who has the largest defense budget in the world by far, is trying to down grade thier (our) military & focus on rapid mobilization & anti insurgent tactics, (rightly so) why is China dumping mass $$ into a stealth fighter that is predominately effective only in a mass modern war. A concept that most experts view as a thing of the past. Cold war days. I have allways had faith in the Cellar. Enlighten me.
