If that were the case then the J-20 shouldn't even have canards since canards can adversely affect stealth and make it a lot harder for the J-20 to 'sneak' by.
I read in an article on this forum a while ago that the reason it has canards is the result of a conscious decision by the designers to...
Why would China want to reverse engineer a PESA, when it already has AESA undergoing testing on J-10B, J-15 & J-16?
Exactly. It would be wiser to spend the time, money and effort maturing the WS-15 than to try and reverse engineer the 117S.
If China does buy any Su-35, I think it could be...
Sir,
So you believe the Su-27's and Su-30's in the PLAAF are more than capable of matching F-16 Blk-52s, correct?
You also believe the J-10A is far inferior to F-16 Blk-52s, correct?
Then how do you explain the fact that in PLAAF air combat exercises, J-10A completely dominates the...
I find it funny that some Hong Kong people are protesting about the right to elect their leader, but they seem to forget that the British didn't afford them this right either - colonial governers were appointed by the queen/prime minister.
Logic FAIL.
All those countries you mentioned (except for Thailand, which is NOT rich by any stretch of imagination), have an underlying Confucian culture - that's what makes them successful, not being US allies.
Why is Confucian Culture so wildly successful?
Both Israel and Syria (and USA for that matter) are fighting terrorists.
The terrorists are outgunned so they hide among civilians - as a result, civilians will die.
In Israels (and Americas) case, all the blame for civilian deaths go to the terrorists, for hiding among civilians.
In Syrias...
No human will ever be as strong as a gorilla, it's an unfair comparison. Another gorilla OTH might have a good shot at beating this gorilla.
Anyway, if it was just about muscles, then muscular fighters would never get knocked out - but they do, we see it all the time in professional fighting...
Maybe the kick didn't land in the proper place.
Most of the head is very hard - it is meant to protect your brain after all. I've seen people breaking their fists when trying to punch people in the head; thats why boxers wear gloves - to protect their own hands.
The energy from a punch has...
Raptor has higher top speed, supercruise, better manoeuverability, tvc, longer range, higher payload, all-aspect stealth etc The Raptor is superior in every single way.
The US government considers the Raptor so important to national security that it will not risk allowing it to be exported to...
By the same token, why would USN publicise so openly that PLAN subs are noisy and easy to track, if indeed that is the case? Publicising this would surely be a wake-up call for the PLAN and cause them to focus on developing better subs.
Would it not be better for USN to keep quiet and let the...
Correct.
The amount of matter lost/converted to energy in U-235 fission is miniscule.
U-235 + 1Neutron (Total mass: 236 units) ------> Ba-141 + Kr-92 + 3Neutrons (Total mass: 236 units)
There is some loss of mass/matter if you use the proper numbers, but we're talking about fractions of mass...
Palestinians don't have a land to call their own either - yet I don't see any Indians criticising Israel for their occupation.
But I guess it's OK to overlook the misery of others as long as Israel has deals to do with India.
Besides, Tibetans may be miserable now, but at least their lives...
All the indigenous peoples of america (north and south) originate from central asia. That would explain why they share facial features and characteristics common to people from central asia.
