It is not perculiar to Flankers, the effectiveness of Manpad applies to all aircrafts and UAVs from East and west that are not equiped with MAWS. Chinese Flankers do have MAWS, can't say the same for the Russian aircraft. And it is strange that Russians are flying low within the range of...

Relax, ground war within China is less likely to happen. It is either air engagement or naval engagement if ever there is a fire fight with invading enemy. Air superiority and sea control are the deterrence against ground war. Once you lost air superiority and sea control, the outcome of the...

Yes, production is running and will continue until a new 5th gen stealth fighter bomber (JH-XX) starts to appear.

This thread has exposed true colors of many countries, it also exposed who are the paid cyber contractors among our forum members.

More inflation cut down the real GDP. China will overtake US in nominal GDP earlier than most people expected, China already overtake USA in GDP PPP in 2013. Ultimately US is going down just like the British empire. Britain once had the greatest navy in the world just like US navy at...

This could be fake news. Russia has trans-Siberian railways that can transport these trucks (and in far more larger number) to border with Ukraine within a week, by ship the journey would take a month.

If there is urgency in adding more hard point/pylons, British had a weird answer with their Jaguar strike jet and English Electric Lightning (export version).

In a neighbour forum on Chinese military, this Sub Brief youtuber got tons and tons of negative comments for his lack of knowledge on type 055 and his authoritarian act of deleting and banning people who questioned validity of his video. One of many comments posted in the neighbourhood...

A weaker US dollar no doubt will make US export cheaper, but manufacturing will remain in countries with mature supply chain like in China, and in countries with cheap labour costs like in Vietnam, Bangladesh etc. Labour intensive manufacturing will keep moving from one developing country to...

For both SU-30MKM and F/A-18D, technically they are all multi-role. However, in Malaysian airforce, they have been given more specific primary mission roles as:- SU-30MKM - primary mission role is air superiority, but they are also armed with air-to ground guided missiles, same as other...

It is a Beechcraft 1900. The T tail is a prominent feature of this aircraft.

Looks like China has solved the bottle neck problem. WS-10 is in mass production, WS-20 will soon in mass production for Y20 as well. This means the core problem is solved, and most of other engines in development will proceed faster than WS-10's development timeline.
