Greetings, May I know what is the warning for when I only asked for top speed of all flankers variants bought and built domestically by China in all China flankers variants thread? Since deino condemned almost every point I posted based on military books that I've read and US aircraft carrier...

Great, my old foe you're back. The A-12 and B-2 indeed have really poor maneuverability especially the yaw without the fin stabilizers. Since you're the expert, care to clarify since there's no maneuverable aircraft without fin stabilizer in active service so far. Also, I need you to explain the...

Countries that buy weapons from Russia or China mostly are those that don't buy from US & NATO. Also numbers of them have rivals that are placed under threat list of possible attackers usually richer buying arms from US & NATO having larger air forces. Just look at Syria vs Turkey air force...

The maximum effective range is only achievable if the launcher aircraft is flying at high altitude and at speed without affected by ECM. In rear engagement against fleeing aircraft at high speed, the effective range would greatly reduced to less than 15Nm. This is why in modern BVR engagement...

This man said J-11D prototype undergone testing superior than Su-35. Deino kept saying there won't be J-11D so who is right? Also noticed the specifications of few flankers variants in Wikipedia kept changing the top speed therefore need clarification from those know how here: Su-27SK Max...

In BVR, both sides chance of winning at 50:50. The F-16V RCS isn't that high neither yet it is fitted with proven advanced AESA radar coupled with advanced proven avionics especially early warning system. China avionics could be either close, similar or better, won't know until it sees combat...

Why are you replying when the bet is on? Stop flooding this thread and wait for the result unless you are not confident to take the fair challenge. When J-10B/C being redesigned, you didn't expect the top speed reduced to Mach 1.8. you think you could predict the J-15B/T top speed? I repeat...

What's with the trolling warning when I told all those who disagreed to wait for J-15B/T/D design? It is you and the few that can't stick to discussion. You doubt my point on aircraft aerodynamic, you may ask Luftwaffe pilots and engineers from your nearest air force base since you're in Germany...

Good you're in Shanghai, you sure get to watch KLF and WLF fight events there since you're into martial arts. Frankly speaking, that unbeatable movie is really awful with bad fight choreograph. Cheong Kar Fai is just average to me while Philip is totally out whether in acting or fighting. Thumbs...

You really don't know much about F-16 armament payload, do you? Probably your generation don't get to buy detailed military books like the old days anymore. Just look at these photos, since F-16C early variants in 1980's, they have been carrying AGM-65, Mk-82, CBU-87/97 on double or triple...

From neutral fair point of view, either side is lying, smearing or covering up. I won't side with either party blindly as facts shouldn't be twisted by favouritism. This answer on J-15A will only be revealed after Type 003 entering active service with sisters ships in development. If you see...

It sure needs more thrust for better lift, climb, acceleration. New J-15B/D/T might get speed reduction with redesigned aerodynamic for better carrier approach landing slow speed stability & maneuverability. Max speed could be just Mach 2 or less. Unlike current J-15A needed the speed in order...

Are you from HK because your avatar unbeatable movie starring Cheong Kar Fai & sanda guy Phillip? F-16V is smaller and lighter (empty 19,000lb) with smaller internal fuel tank 6,900lb, if carried 6 air to air missiles, it could still pull more than 8.1G, brought total weight the less that...

You go to military export market involving a country that wanted to buy where few manufacturers presented their fighters, otherwise you won't understand what I'm telling you. FYI a normal country (not rich superpower with GDP ranking not in top 20-30, their budget limited with preference for...

What is J-15T? Not J-15B/BS/D for catapult launch? Twin seats version? ECM?

Looking forward to it. Yes, relook at FC-31 first prototype had 2 wheeled front landing gear tells the goal is for carrier based from beginning. Due to time constraint, the FC-31 would likely enter service with PLAN for the Type 003. A larger navalized stealth fighter would only come later after...

Good, it means the carrier will be ready hopefully by this year, most likely delayed next year. Can wait to see fighters operating on the EMALS carrier

Without sidebay, it won't be multi-role fighter when carrying only internal payload like F-35 Agree, since China is large country, a medium stealth fighter is not favourable by PLAAF. FC-31 is for export market and the navalized FC-31 could end up being just testbed for future navalized...
