What i have always loved was that the intel community has always said that
1) China will never aquire an aircraft carrier
2) China will never refit the aircraft carrier
3)it will not put to sea until 2013/14
4)ok, it put to sea, but it is only a training platform and will not have a weapon system or advanced sensors
5) ok, so it has weapons and advanced sensors, but it wont have aircraft land on it untill 2014/15
6) ok, an aircraft landed, but it will never have a full airwing
I love the intel guys, and i cant believe that this time next year i will be part of them.
