China boosting nuclear arsenal, has 3x India's warheads: SIPRI

斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究所：中国加强核武库，核弹头数量是印度的3倍

NEW DELHI: China is boosting its nuclear arsenal faster than any other country around the globe, and now has triple the number of warheads that India has, while it also deploys some of them on "high operational alert" on ballistic missiles.

新德里：中国正在以比全世界所有国家都更快的速度扩充核武库，中国目前拥有的核弹头数量已达印度的三倍，同时也将一些弹道导弹设置成了“高度作战警戒”的状态。

Pakistan, in turn, maintains its rough parity with India in the number of nuclear warheads, while Russia and the US are leagues ahead of others, together accounting for 90% of all nuclear weapons.

巴基斯坦在核弹头数量上与印度大致持平，俄罗斯和美国领先于其他国家，两国核弹头数量相加约占所有全球总量的90%。

China now has 500 warheads, up from 410 in January 2023, while India has 172 (from 164 in 2023) and Pakistan 170 (unchanged from 2023), as per the latest assessment by the Stockholm International Peace Institute (SIPRI) released on Monday.

根据斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究所(SIPRI)周一发布的最新评估，中国目前拥有500枚核弹头，高于2023年1月的410枚，而印度拥有172枚(2023年164枚)，巴基斯坦170枚(与2023年持平)。

The Indian defence establishment, however, remains confident of its strategic deterrence capability, which is poised to get some additional teeth after the already-inducted over 5,000-km range Agni-5 ballistic missile was tested for the first time with multiple-warhead capability on March 11 this year.

不过印度国防部门仍然对自己的战略威慑能力充满信心，在今年3月11日首次测试射程超过5000公里的烈火-5弹道导弹后，印度的战略威慑能力略有上升。

I'm not worried about china's arsenal. What I'm worried about is that they may start selling them to rogue nations considering their economic crisis and these rogue nations will use them or blackmail others

我不担心中国的军火储备。我担心的是，如果他们出现经济危机，可能会把军火出售给*氓国家，而这些*氓国家会使用这些军火、甚至胁迫其他国家。

What is any country going to do by accumulated nuclear weapons when a handful of weapons are more than sufficient to destroy even countries with a vast landscape? What is the guarantee that future generations will have the patience not to use it against any enemy countries?

如果少量核武器就足以摧毁一个幅面辽阔的国家，那么各国囤积核武器又有什么用呢？谁能保证后代能有足够的忍耐力，不用这些核武器来对付敌国呢？

China is fast losing proper direction of their investments in correct areas, probably due to internal compulsions.. The Government is not taking care of their Common man needs, but, investing heavily in Arms, Army to meet its expansionism dreams.

中国对正确领域的投资已经迅速偏离方向了，可能是由于内部冲动的结果。政府没有顾及普通人的需求，大量投资于武器和军队，满足自己扩张梦想。

India strategically neutral but inclined towards Russia. We are still a develo nation, and must adopt all the privillages to develop. And then take part in this race. But keep building moderately. This the only choice we may have…

印度在战略上中立，但倾向于俄罗斯。我们仍然是一个发展中国家，必须利用一切有利条件来发展国家。然后再考虑参加这种军备竞赛。但我们要保持适度的节奏。这是我们唯一的选择…

Strategically, nuclear arsenal can be dangerous to the country, which is kee them. First thing is that native country have to spend a lot on maintaining and protecting them. In war time, if you want to use, effective steel dome / iron dome technology can make the nuclear arsenal counter productive, by stop them on native country with disastrous effect for native country. Strategically it is better to have effective iron dome technology, rather than trying to match nuclear arms numbers

从战略上讲，对拥有核武库的国家来说，核武库本身可能就是一个危险的东西。第一，维护和保存核武库需要耗费很多资金。在战争时期，如果你想使用核武器，钢穹顶/铁穹顶技术可以阻止它们对本国造成灾难性的影响。从战略上讲，最好是具备有效的铁穹技术，而不是试图与核武器数量相匹配

No point getting into a nuclear arsenal race with the evil, disease spreading, greedy land grabber. In the eventuality of a nuclear exchange, China has must more to lose than India.

我们没有必要与贪婪的土地掠夺者进行核武库竞赛。在核冲突中，中国最终的损失肯定会比印度大。

INDIA with its MIRV capability&increased target aquisition capability can afford to be frugal in warhead numbers while confidant&comfortable in its missile capability in TRIAD form.

印度凭借其多弹头运载能力和目标捕获能力的提高，可以节省弹头的使用数量，同时印度对自己三位一体导弹能力感到非常自信。

No Thousands N weapons needed to win a war. 10-20 are more than enough to take life out of even big, powerful countries. India has that much number to set scores with more than a dozen countries in no time.

India need not have a large number of warheads We should have just adequate numbers with good delivery systems to keep our adversaries in check which I believe we have. we are also in the process of continual improvement of our defense capability.So under the strong leader ship of our PM we need not worry.

印度不需要有大量的弹头，我们应该有足够的数量和良好的运载系统来牵制我们的对手，我相信我们已经做到了。同时我们还在不断提高我们的防御能力。因此，在莫迪总理的坚强领导下，我们无需担心。
