On this issue:
Turkey. Has been following a steadily and increasingly arrogant foreign policy. That is not good. What do you expect from your neighbours when you constantly "flex your muscles and your tongue"?
Israel: They have been making their point across to anyone needed for decades, you...
You really can't say that. You don't know what a "good" ship means. In terms of what ? survivability ? range? reach? sea rolling? weapon upgrade capability ? weapon configuration? maintenance ? expected service life? crew size? logistic support ?
you really can't say that...
I think the J-20 ( an achievement in its own right) has dropped the last drop in the glass of chinese overpatriotism and pride.
If nothing else that is already the major J-20 achievement.
What I have noticed before though and again and again, is an over expression of bravado without equal. I...
To be honest, I think the west knows. It is you who don't really know. I'll give it to you simple. You are overestimating yourselves. National pride and all.. but take it down a notch
around 1998-99 we successfully hid signal in background noise. We used wavelets and stochastic statistical algorithms to retrieve the information.
Not easy though .
RC models are not the same. the pak fa model has a single thruster, the J-20 two , and the point made in the video from the RC model is that the T-50 model is unstable. If you know what is what you know what that means. On the other hand the rc model of the j-20 is stable. Stable is NOT what...
And there is a video by the (same?) people who have a model of the pak fa. Even more spectacular.
Rc planes made from derpon have no weight. that is the big difference here.
True there are. Strange though that the strike plane came first then.
We don't know how agile the plane is yet. It may be agile enough to fulfil the fighter role.
But would you have a dedicated design for such a mission? Russia had a need for the MiG-25 because of its sheer vastness. So using a tool already there to do something else is sensible. Making a specialized tool from scratch ... a bit harder and consuming. No ?
I see where you are coming from, however I must point out that the JAST concept was merely a powered mock up. The MiG 1.44 actually flew. That would mean there is a tonne more of available information on the particular design than the JAST abandoned project.
If you contemplate on what kind of...
I think we are pretty much on topic.
Let me explain.
although I do appreciate the fact that you are trying (and are obliged even) to keep the thread on track, you must realize that talking about technical achievements in or around a given field, one must not allow irrelevant, ignorant and...
It pains me, but I must agree with that.
I am sorry I didn't reply in time, I was busy.
right, ehmm, just because one sees things one does not like on either sides, that does not mean a solution must not be found.
the bottom line is: The ideal solution is for the island to be...
Their rights were violated when Turkey chose the way of separatism over one island one people. That is the real issue.
Northern cyprus mock state does not have rights to the islands resources, legal ones, because it is not an officially recognised state, only an occupied area.
The...
Haha and haha
and to answer you questions...
1. This radar tracks a baseball sized target at 2500miles.. that means it will see a J-20 at roughly that distance give or take a few miles (not counting curvature) .
2. It doesn't matter it is not an airborne radar .. my argument was about that...
