Serious question, not trolling : It's well known that air quality in main Chinese cities is terrible. It's easy to explain that because of Chinese economy is based on manufacturing. The country was dirty poor ( like sub-saharan african poverty level) 35 years ago. In order to feed people and lift t...

J-20 prototype 2015 spotted

^^Don't know what to make of the above news. It either means the PLAAF/PLAN has plans to induct the J-31 in the current config with RD-93 engines (unlikely) or, the pakis are getting 100 more JF-17s. Bad news from IAF's standpoint in either case, since our induction plans seem stuck in limbo. 1.Chi...

India-China joint counterterrorism training exercise in Pune It's good to see the joint counterterrorism exercise held by India and China. Both countries need to work together more and prevent tragedy like 2008 Mumbai attack or bombing in Urumqi street market happening again, and save lives of inno...

brar_w wrote:117S class thrust would most likely not be optimum for the J-31 while being pretty much perfect for the J-20. The medium sized aircraft would take a range penalty.

I'm in no way an expert, but pretty much everything I've read on internet (mostly Chinese forums) seems to be in line with this.

for the size of a/c it does touch upon all the right checkboxes and will not need a overly powerful engine like the JSF. having two engines makes it rather simple to get a high T:W ratio even on a boxy internal bay airframe. the electronics, engine, materials may not be upto JSF std yet but I dont ...

I was not aware it was based on internal funding. Actually that is a great step ......... something that is needed for building a MIC. To that extent kudos to SAC. However, I took a quick peek at which all nations china currently exports to. None of them would need this plane (Pkais being an except...

I came across an article of whom will the Chinese export all this (J-31 included) to. Outside of Pakis there is really no one worth talking about. So, at times, I wonder why all this for an export oriented plane. Or do the Chinese intend to have a model they use for themselves? Not sure even PLAAF ...

http://www.globalinnovationindex.org/content.aspx?page=data-analysis The Global Innovation Index 2014 (GII) was released at the B20 Australia Summit held in Sydney on 18 July 2014. The GII 2014 confirms the continued existence of global innovation divides even within income groups. All top 25 econom...

case is is that : 1.the real life quality varies much in CHina, in some areas , real life quality can match moderate developed economies like Taiwan and South Korea http://creative.sulekha.com/tuanjin-park-beijing-a-blog-by-joey-ren_616012_blog http://creative.sulekha.com/changsha-the-capital-city-...

3.could you tell me in which Chinese city or county you could have such a rare expericence of " You do not have to go far off from the large city, when you are in a area , without hotels, restaurants, taxis etc. " frankly speaking, a city or county without tax/hotel/restaurants is as rare...

The development in China is fantastic, no doubt about that. But it can not in any way be called a developed nation. As a Chinese I agree with this. China has a long way to go to become a developed nation, political system aside. Out of the countries I've lived in/visited, I'd say for average people...

As for the salary level, my family live in a city in Southwest China, not the poorest area but certainly not considered a rich area either in the country. As per my parents, salary of average people has been steadily increasing over the years. As an indicator, my parents currently pay 1800RMB (abou...

And the economy booming in China is real. Everyone in a market bubble has looked around and said those exact same words. Since you live in China your perspective is limited. When things change, they will change in a hurry, be prepared... Actually I don't live in China. I've been living in Canada fo...

Probably all bought up by the Railway ministry using proxies, to save face and boost confidence in the HSR. You're wrong. I'm currently in China. My flight from Shanghai to Chongqng was at 7:30pm on Oct 2nd, I wanted to change the flight to a bit earlier but was told that all the tickets were sold ...

@manum, shiv and other guys, thanks for your kind words about my mom's health. @shiv, you're a very good writer, the analogy you made is pretty funny and accurate in the same time, at least to me. Do you have medical background? You're right in that half tissue from family memeber, like son or siste...

PRC has officially one-child policy for a long period of time, that means the little Chinese emperor has 2 parents and 4 grand parents to take care off (if he is married, add wife plus her 6 lineage). Moreover PRC cares very little for individual citizens and largesse of socialistic things like foo...

You people are thugs by default. If you travel to different countries in the world, you'll be really surprised that regardless of the skin color, language, religion, essentially we human beings are the same. For the majority of average people like you and me, life is about making good money, suppor...

India is importing 70%+ of her weapons, with a economy size around 1/4 of China's. I don't think it is wise to do so. Interesting. This is how I view the issue. India is copying foreign technology, but that copying is done openly and under licence. That means India pays more for copying, and remain...

I think the issues between China and India are a bit exaggerated. For the most important part, the border issue can be solved by negotiation. Similar problem existed between Russia and China but it was solved peacefully. To Chinese government, taiwan and south china sea are far more important. As th...

Sorry for my English. Just read the following on Chinese military forum, from one guy who predicated detail of J-20 accurately in early 2010. According to him, 1) The two existing prototype of J-20 are using Russian engine, not Chinese engine. 2) WS-15, which has TVC and thrust-to-weight ratio over ...
