France’s MMP Anti-Tank Missile Is One Long-Range Shooter*Charlie Gao* *Missiles, * In actual killing ability, the MMP brings some innovations versus its competitors. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* Nations that rely solely on Javelin for infantry anti-tank might find themselves in need of a longer-ranged system, which the MMP can provide. Finally, since the MMP was developed off the back of French operational use of the Javelin, it addresses many issues France had with it, such as the lack of “man-in-the-loop” control. At the end of the Cold War, the MILAN anti-tank missile used by the United Kingdom, France, and Germany was near... read more

Jet in a Jam: China’s Famous Stealth Fighter May Have a Problem*Kris Osborn* *China, * Not having a vertical take off ability could certainly limit a J-31 jet’s operational reach and effectiveness.

The actual answer to this question may remain unknown or even somewhat mysterious, however, there do appear to be some unanswered questions which may answer or at least shed light upon this. It would seem that any margin of difference is likely to reside in the realm of sensing, artificial-intelligence-enabled ... read more

No Stealth for You: Why China Won't Export Its J-20 Fighter*David Axe* *J-20, Asia* There's a major reason why. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Beijing wants to protect its secrets. The Chinese government has never exported, nor even tried to export, its J-20 stealth fighter. There’s one major reason why. In the years immediately following the Chengdu-built J-20’s 2011 debut, Western analysts assumed the large, angular, twin-engine fighter would, like most Chinese weapons, become an export commodity. Instead, Beijing decided to keep the J-20’s high-end military capabilities all to itself. Cash isn’t worth giving up the radar-evading war... read more
