China Naval Modernization: Implications for U.S. Navy Capabilities?Background and Issues for Congress
ISBN: 9781502887214 / Angielski / Miękka / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The question of how the United States should respond to China's military modernization effort, including its naval modernization effort, has emerged as a key issue in U.S. defense planning. The question is of particular importance to the U.S. Navy, because many U.S. military programs for countering improved Chinese military forces would fall within the Navy's budget.

The Conflation: politics and politrics beyond the ecstasy
ISBN: 9781496075529 / Angielski / Miękka / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

It was no surprise that many "specialists" or "experts" on the subject believed that the LTTE would never be totally defeated, and never achieve the state of Tamil Eelam. But one senior member of the TMVP, which is...
