Well, warfare continues to go high-tech.
I was talking about the successful Azerbaijani drone warfare against Armenians in Nagorno Karabakh.
Now there are reports that late Summer China won a battle with Indian troops in the Himalayas using a microwave-style device that causes a painful burning sensation under your skin as your water molecules heat up. Reportedly many Indian soldiers became nauseous from the radiation.
The US has such a weapon as well, shipped it to Afghanistan, but it's use there was never confirmed. No doubt this will become a crowd control weapon down the road. Sounds like the kind of nasty thing Trump would have wheeled out.
Along the Indian/China border, there's a half century old agreement not to use guns and munitions. So this summer troops from the two countries clashed in a massive brawl using rocks and sticks. 20 Indian soldiers died, and China didn't disclose how many were killed on their side. Apparently up to 900 soldiers were involved. Pretty huge and nasty fight to kill a few dozen soldiers largely barehanded or with natural weapons at hand. Crazy.
Also crazy, how it went from a fist/rock fight brawl to a high-tech microwave attack a couple weeks later.
