It's very difficult question to answer this one. The last century was known as the American century and I don't think as far as anyone can know, that there will be much change this century however there is an old quote from I think Winston Churchill who said. "Beware of the sleeping giant in the East", this was taken to mean that some time in the future China would emerge as a nation to be reckoned with.

We shall see.

had to rethink this have to say none we all be in the stone ages soon

I had no idea that Apache was for sale? Or that even any other country had it :/
Didnt know any other countries used M1A2 either?

Yeah. I haven't heard a whole lot about other countries' militaries, but with the one's I've heard, countries generally end up in one of two categories.
1)Has plenty of money - These countries end up using American vehicles and weapons, except for guns, which are usually best obtained from German gun makers

2)Either is short on money or doesn't want to spend anything on military - These countries end using mostly Soviet technology, because it's so cheap. It's also crap. AK's are alright guns, but Soviet tanks are crap nexto the M1A2. An M1A2 will blow the crap out of any soviet built tank, before the soviet built tank can even see the American one, in day or night.

I guess Sweden is in between then, buying and makin top knotch systems.

Never mind i kind of mixed soviet with russia

Soviet tanks are crap now adays because of bad updates. Russian tanks on the other hand is not something you want to play with

And the most sold modern tank is the German one. Well unless you see to national market.

The British Amry has some Apaches in storage.
What's that?
Why are they in storage you say?
What at a miilion pounds a month per chopper simply to maintain?
Why because no one thought to get the pilots required to fly them trained up in time for delivery date!!!
Clever Army!

As for why the US government aren't putting money into alternative fuel sources...
Bush, Cheney et al are Oil Billionaires.

the U.N. will. The world will be divided into 64 areas. Each area will have it's own leader who will anwser only to the head of the U.N. All nations armys will be put under U.N. control and will be stationed in parts of the world other than their home nation, keeping the people of any one nation from banning with it's troops in revolt.

If this ethanol thing really works, I wonder how far my car could run on the compost pile in my back yard?

[SilentTrigger]

Yes it works, it basicly the same as taking it from foresting waste, but you need to know what to do, and you would have to have one hell of a big pile to get a decent size tank full
