WTF They are developing with such a big budget for design phase of a turbo-jet engine ?

 

[Oublious]

there is no bases. We dont have machine, no factory, no assembly line etc etc. We start from zero.

 

[xezer]

That is a nice budget.

Nonsense. How do you expect to have assembly line for the products in design phase ?

 

[Oublious]

Assembly line means a new machine, personal, place etc etc. In the beginning you can design and the parts can made by someone else. When its succesful you can begin with production line. The uav anka is made the sameway. Do you think they gonna spent milions for something that isnt designed?

Good,there is only 28bl japan yen a year for development

Good,there is only 28bl japan yen a year for development

That is because the Japanese economy is debt ridden in it's public expenditures.

200% of it's total GDP
