According to this video of CCTV, Z-10 heavy attack helicopter will carry out 1 flight demonstration per day.

I'm interested by knowing what the exact name in English of "莱维斯曼动作", it seems to be a tactical flight skill of helicopter in which after having "jumping" vertically it rewinds back to the ground straightly. I see in some articles that this is invented by a french pilot in the beginning.

We can see this flight skill in this video...

This is NO longer a concept。HD is working on a prototype, the reveal of which is expected within the next couple of years。

How do you know this?

Avant Courier I, a concept plane from AVICopter...

I think the PLAAF needs to focus more on payload rather than speed as of this moment. They need to focus on the ability to mobilize fast and mobilize hard.
 
Just come back on FL-3000N shipbord CIWS, it uses a passive radar/IR imaging double guidage mode, and comparing to 2 years ago the solid ergol booster has been cancelled.

3 kind of launchers have been presented, by 8, 15 and 24 missiles.

According to a study of CASIC group, if a ship is protected by a launcher of 24 FL-3000N, one needs to use between 15 to 20 anti-ship missiles to detroy this ship, whereas if the same ship is only protected by a H/PJ-12 canon CIWS, only 5 anti-ship missiles will be enough to reach the same result.

For this last point I've a doubt on it because a H/PJ-12 system can only store 640 rounds of munition. During the last sino-russian naval exercise, a Type 052 destroyer has used one of it's 2 H/PJ-12 system to shoot down a drone target, according to the article the canon has used 200 rounds to do it. It means that the whole system can only handle 3 attacks in total without reloading.

Always according to CASIC group, in April 2007 during the firing tests of FL-3000N, within the 24 missiles launched, 23 had destroyed the targets. And 2 other FL-3000N have been launched against a supersonic anti-ship missile carrying out S-sharpe avoidance maneuver, one of them has directly hit down the supersonic target.

One chinese military magazine had detailed this FL-3000N weapon system, we can see it's control station in the bottom right corner...

Its pretty much a mock up right? I mean black tape is not part of the missile in reality?
 
So there are actually TWO types of new concept high-speed helicopters under study,one of which has reached quite an advanced stage of development according to some sources。
