Just like everything else china makes, it's a death trap. It's like soviet tech during the cold war. As for the F-35 all the problems will be fixed after you dump more money on the problem.

China, let's sit down for a moment.

I know you got fucked for the last few hundred years. You fell out of relevancy and now you are sacrificing nearly everything in order to catch up. For such a long lived nation who are among the oldest civilizations in history, why are you not establishing good foundations in order to become rock solid in the long run? Cranking out ships and planes at break neck speeds is impressive, but how will you maintain such a force if your economy is still shaky and your support and personel so untested?

Take your fucking time, holy shit.
>>
>>31057491
Navalized J-20 would provide China with an aircraft that would carry quite the big kinetic adventage over the F-35B and C.
>>
>>31057535
It would also be smaller than the Su-35 in service.
>>
>>31057340
OP, even if all of these are true and there are no issues with the plane, all you have is a plane that is only marginally better than the F-35 in some aspects that might not even apply (can't really apply a superior thrust to weight advantage if your plane can't handle the Gs that the enemy can, and the top speed might not matter if your afterburner starts overheating like hell after a certain amount of time), and that's not taking into account avionics, sensors, and stealth.

Also
>Master of one >> Jack of all trades

There's a reason that just about every military that matters has been trending towards multirole airframes with a few air superiority fighters sprinkled in.
>>
The J-20 aircraft is a good base for a long living family of aircraft based on that design.

There isn't a place for the J-31 outside of maybe becoming a modern FC-1 for countries like Pakistan.
>>
>>31057491
>We will see a navalized version of the J-20 and another already announced VTOL aircraft

They can't even navalize their J-15 and their carrier isn't CATOBAR. That giant Su-27 sized aircraft isn't going to carry shit off a carrier.

Fuck off sprey

>2200 km/h >> 1930 km/h
Top speed matters very little especially when the difference is 270 km/h

>1200 km range >> 1150km range
but that 50km difference will be rendered irrelevant by the fact that the F-35 will almost always have access to a better tanker network than the J-31

>Thrust to weight: 1 >> .87
I'm fairly sure the .87 figure has been disproven. Either way, that matters little when turning fights have been rendered irrelevant by modern WVR tactics
>200kN Thrust >> 190 kN
this 10 kN difference is probably made up for by underperforming slavshit engines

>>31057720
Numbers don't lie, the argument is on whether they matter. A 50km combat radius difference is almost entirely insubstantial except in the most extreme hypothetical edge cases, the top speed of an aircraft when it's at it's flight ceiling pushing afterburners in a dive is a rare situation, and thrust to weight by itself does not matter as much for modern fighter tactics.

Well, the J-20 is the best thing that could happen to the F-22.

A J-20 operating within its supercruise window can't be intercepted by a F-35 just with moderate changes of its route.

Sure, it sucks that there are like 100 F-22 combat ready at she same somewhere on the world, so China could outmatch American assets quite badly when the J-20 gets combat ready in 2018/2019.

Chair Forcer here

Used to work at Centcom, when MacDill had it's AirFest now and then I would have to work as a security forces augmentee for it. Basically had to spend the weekend standing around making sure no civilians entered the clean side of the base or hopped a fence towards a plane or any stupid shit.

Anyways, there ALWAYS, ALWAYS would be chinese there. We would get briefed on how to deal with foreigners asking questions among other things, but the chinese were the most prevalent. It would always either be a family, or a single old man. The family would be a male and female, both in their 30's or 40's, with a boy. Would obviously be native chinese, could tell with the accent. There would be multiple families always walking around, dressed similar, similar mannerisms, etc. You would be able to tell something was off just by how they were, they weren't normal tourists. They always had similar camera bags and similar camera equipment with them though. And they'd all basically do the same thing. After circling around the entire air fest twice, they would take their camera out and start photographing the newer air craft. They would never take pictures of the old aircraft or the legacy ones, only the ones currently being used, or new ones like if the F-35 prototypes were showcased. They would spend close to 30 minutes photographing, then theyd go up and ask the augmentees about the aircraft. "Is that bag supposed to be on the engine? What's that symbol mean? So why is the wing like that? Do you know why the glass is curved in that way?" And they'd go from person to person asking the same things in just different ways.

If you watched you'd see some of the "families" meet up with eachother and talk before dispersing again.

Overall it was really weird and sort of unsettling. It was always the chinese though. Or at least they were the easiest to pick out. We always got told about other nationalities but I never saw ruskies
>>
>>31057925
Because they had 300 years of research to copy, now they've caught up and they don't have anything else to copy so they're trying their own designs that are failing horribly

It's a combo of both. The anti-US side consists of butthurt Chinese/Russian nationalists, libertarians desperately trying to convince themselves that you don't need tax money for a modern military, and thinly veiled stormfags praying for the fall of western culture. The pro-US side is ultra-patriotic Amerifats, kiddies who think stealth fighters are 'cool', and idiots who think more money automatically equals better weapons.

So you do appreciate the critical role copying plays. So its something necessary and nothing to be ashamed of.

And regarding failure, You do realise failure is the easiest way to learn right?

Ill tell you this. 5 years back the only electronic companies were Samsung, htc, apple, LG and Sony.

In the five years since in the developing world with over 4 billion people except Samsung everyone became irrelevant.

Now we have brands like Huawei, ZTE, Xiaomi, oppo, meizu, vivo, Gionee, LeEco, one plus who have displaced the old guard and have gained trust.

8 new mega companies.

Guess whats common among them all? Every single one is a Chinese company. No one buys LG, Panasonic, Sony,HTC anymore.

They started as ripoffs and are now established players. They haven't entered western markets due to IP problems but out here in the east they are unimaginably huge.

Think of all the Japanese companies today, China will be like 5 x Japan in the near future.

They have a plan and its sound and its showing results.

Why come up with something yourself if you can just copy?
https://youtu.be/ac18wj5GbNw

>>31058023
>spaces out his post so it's big and attention grabbing
Wewlad

Anyways, part of the problem with those chinese companies? Huawei broke into the mainstream in the west. And guess what happened? It was found they were spying on their users with malicious firmware.

They might be big in china, but that's because they can spy on the chinese people without repurcussions. As soon as they get into the west and try that its found out and everyone loses their trust in them. Huawei is the only one that's broken into the west, and no one buys their phone's anymore. You know why? Because no one trusts them now. That's the problem with chinese companies. Even if they stop trying to rip off their consumers they still try to spy on them and use them.

People trust LG and Samsung and Sony and HTC because they don't essentially attack their users. People don't trust ZTE and Xiaomi because they know they're chinese companies, and they know that means
>1. Sub par products
>2. Malicious actions against their users
>>
>>31057376
Boo-hoo, timmy copied me. What's the matter? Too dumb to think of something original.

News flash faggot countries steal off each other all the time. Google all teh shit the NSA has been stealing from foreign nations. They committed corporate espionage against allies.

The problem with copying technology is that it doesn't give you the resources to create new designs when you run out of stuff to copy. It's not that China is physically incapable of creating new industries, but they have zero idea of how to do so. China also has significant cultural barriers against innovation, more severe than Japan's were even. The iPhone, despite being built in China, could have never been designed there because no one in China is really looking at what consumers will need or want in the future. They are so focus with the latest tech out of the west they ignore any domestic innovations they might have. It's the same with computers, cars, aircraft, and eventually weapons. Copying everything in sight doesn't give China the ability to look ahead.
>>
>>31058023
If you had ever dealt with the Chinese, you would know that the last thing you do is trust them in business.
>>
>>31058047
AS if Android and windows aren't spying. Whats the point. All companies spy for their government.

I'm not sure if you have use the xiaomi products in last one year. They are hugely improved and are selling out like theres no tomorrow. Every 2 days they go out of stock. They have a huge fan following in my country and Hugo barra is treated like steve jobs out here. Its like apple fan boys, except here you can see why they are fanboys. Cheap as shit phones yet quality hardware. Xiaomi isn't the worlds most valuable startup for nothing.

Its a matter of time before they expand their markets and when they do come youll see why they are liked.

And regarding losing data yo should be afraid of your own govt not the Chinese. Unless you are dealing with classified stuff its better the Chinese have your data because they cant prosecute you but your govt can and will because your country's law are enforced only by your government.

If you are dealing with classified stuff ofcourse you want to buy only the NSA backdoored products.

Anyway the relevant point is if they can catch up here no reason they wont catch up everywhere. Chinese military budget 1/3 rd of USA and a dollar in china goes much farther than in USA. So all that means very soon they are going to start showing results in the military world

>During the 18th and 19th centuries, as the United States shifted from an agricultural to an industrial economy and urbanization disconnected people from food production, the debasement of food for profit became rampant. Milk was often watered down and colored with chalk or plaster—substances which were also added to bulk up flour. Lead was added to wine and beer, and coffee, tea and spices were routinely mixed with dirt, sand or other leaves. Although a number of laws forbade harmful substances from being added to food, they were tough to enforce since there were no dependable tests to prove the existence of pollutants.

The only reason japan didn't reach parity is its a tiny island compared to US and its population is 1/3rd. Japanese can never reach parity in quantity.

Japan sure as hell Leads the world in many spheres. From cultural dominance to electronics and Automobiles, Japanese companies are at the forefront.

And that is why you should look ou for china.

China is everything japan was except now they have the land mass and people to push forward.

Japans GDP never crossed USA in any measure. China surpassed it in PP terms and is on its way to surpass it in nominal terms as well.

And Russia is an outlier. They were isolationist and waged in too may wars for their population size which again is same as japans.

China has the geography and demography to breach that ceiling.

And yes, the strength of America is its immigrants and integrating the immigrants into americans. That is a major reason American population curve is not tapering like other developed country. This is indeed a serious advantage US has

We will never do that mistake again.

Qing Dynasty was economically vibrant, but militarily weak, and it fell prey to the Western Imperial powers and Japan, who felt that a rich but weak China is like a fat and defenseless cattle waiting to be slaughtered.

China only spends like 1,5% of their GDP on military anyway, so it's actually kinda modest.

If Clinton wins, China will up their spending to at least 5% of the GDP to crank out more ships and finally end the fucking shitty minimum deterrence posture that mandates that China only retains 240 nukes. China needs at least 2000 nukes to deter the US warmongers from first striking China and take us, their most threatening rival, out.

China spent 50% of their GDP on defense back during Korean War.

As the GPD grew, the military spending in % got smaller, even though absolute numbers got bigger.

China would have no problem spending 5% when the security environment around her detoriates. Especially when Clinton has to prove herself to China and Russia to be some tough woman to get taken serious by Xi and Putin, by doing something really damn fucking neo-con-like shit.

It doesn't matter because, thanks to the history of Chinese kin selection norms over the last 2000 years, intra-clan loyalties are high while society-wide loyalties are low - China is a bit unusual that way, most societies bred for one or the other.

To cut the anthropology short, coup fears ensure that warheads and missiles are separated. This is feasible thanks to China's massive underground construction, but it seriously damages their chances at competition in an America-first-strike scenario.

There is no real point in making a short range-style rocket like the Russians while we are designing a new long-range rocket and shuttle system.

Frankly, we have no interest in getting to Mars on Russian rockets. The cost-per-pound/cost-per-kilo is higher than say the Space Shuttle, or even the SpaceX rocket (which is reusable and improves all the time). Getting to Mars will likely involve:

1- launch to near-earth orbit, likely near the ISS or at the ISS itself

2- refuel

3- slingshot using the moon and earth to help speed things up

Both are wrong.

>China has 27 nuclear power reactors in operation, 24 under construction, and more about to break ground. The plan is to install about 150 GW by 2030. China National Nuclear Corporation recently signed an agreement with Bill Gates’ new nuclear power company, TerraPower, to bring the world’s most advanced nuclear reactor to market before 2030. In fact, China wants its nuclear fleet in general to be the most advanced technologically.

Im not the Anon you were talking to but let me try to explain my perspective.

1- most claims about "Nation X exceeds America" have fallen on their face. People cried this about Germany... then Japan... then the Soviet Union... and many of these nations DID exceed us in some areas, but ultimately they did not. I think China could reach a comfortable place.

2- internal institutional inertia is a hell of a drug. The US dollar is the world's defacto currency, the major oil currency, and major foreign reserve currency., even for China! This is unbelievably huge. It means an attack on the US dollar or economy is in-effect an attack on the world economy. This makes people mad, in general, and would severely hurt international trade (china of course benefits alot from international trade). Economically speaking, China may be the "engine (or so it was claimed, that growth is slowing down)" but the USD remains the "fuel".

Another caveat to that is the need for currency transparency. How are the numbers reported? How is economic data collected? US methods, while maybewlabrynthian and often confusing to the uninformed, are intended to be transparent. There is no secret manipulation. In contrast, China's yuan has been accused of currency manipulation by various parties, and that is bad. Manipulating economic figures means that foreign markets wont trust your currency or markets, and that is very, very bad. Unless china really cleans up their black-box treasury, it is EXTREMELY unlikely chinese currency will approach the reserve and economic influence of the USD.

Pic loosely related because it's the only thing in my archives right now.

While staples consumed per person shift more towards protein as a nation develops, food consumption as a whole also increases, so there is still a net increase in grain demand. Since introducing proteins as an intermediate energy stage also multiply grain needs, grain demands expand very fast.

Urban development is also cutting into agricultural land. While Chinese grain processes are more efficient than e.g. the US, it isn't enough to compensate.

Like ive explained before, Nobody had the combination US had. Large landmass with large population. Germany Japan were simply not going to surpass USA. They are the size of Texas with around 100 mil population. Russia was huge but it did not have an open market and had 120 mil population only. Again fell short.

The reason why China MIGHT be different is it has both land mass and population. Yes history is on US's side but the same history says why others failed and why it wont apply to china.

>2
Absolutely right. That is going to be the biggest problem for them. Once again the Chinese have showed some foresight.

They have the AIIB and the SCO. Just like how World Bank and IMF set up under USA helped South korea Japan become its life long partners, China is trying something similar with their AIIB/NDB and SCO. They are spurring infrastructure investment all over Central Asia and Africa hoping they become China's own japan and south korea.

It is a tough ask. The work culture in Africa is not what Japan has. So this might backfire spectacularly. But the Chinese have no choice. The good countries are taken. China is trying to make the best of the hand it was delivered.

If this backfires though the path Chinese dominance got a whole lot difficult.

Also china like it transitioned from communism to market economy will have to transition from single party limited democracy to full fledged democracy in the next 25 years. This will ensure all the transparency you seek in the economy. Admitedly this is the one part where the goals of the politburo does not coincide with goals of the people. We will have to wait and see.

If you think the Chinkys are priming the Yuan to replace the dollar outright you're completely wrong. China wants control of the IMF and to implement the SDR to act as a reserve currency, just as it was intended in the 1970s.

China might take another big step forward this month in its long-term aim to forge an IMF money system into the world’s dominant currency.

Mainland media group Caixin reported that the World Bank planned to issue bonds denominated in Special Drawing Rights in China as early as the end of this month. It said policy bank China Development Bank was also planning an SDR bond issue.

The SDR is a unit of money created by the International Monetary Fund and defined by a weighted average of various convertible currencies.

Market traders questioned the real purpose of such bonds, saying the SDR had little use in investment and trade.

China has long had an obsession with the IMF’s SDR and wants to reduce the global reliance on the US dollar.

China does not have the economic setup for well-functioning markets presently. That allows for participants in its current market system to act in fraudulent ways.

The reason this is not present in the United States is not because of increased "development" of "human nature." The Americans are not more evolved than the Chinese as individuals. The difference is that markets are setup better in the United States because of relatively less government intervention into the economy.

You are correct, but the reason is more nuanced. An attack on the world economy by devaluing the US dollar is not because everyone likes using US dollars.

The reason the US dollar is so well recognized and used is because so many nations want products produced in the United States. Either by directly purchasing American goods or indirectly by trading with others who want to buy American products, devaluing the dollar would mean "there is decreased world demand for American products."
>>
>>31059547
False. I just quoted above America had a massive adulteration problem during industrialisation. how lead and sand was mixed with food.

You are fundamentally ignoring the thought process of a poor man. Morality cannot flourish when there is no prosperity. Ethics and morality lie above the priority compared to food and shelter. Markets are not even remotely relevant to this problem.

Chinese are cheating just like how americans cheated during industrialisation.

Fuckin badass. I swear if this was American, all the /k/ucks here would be singing praises
>>
>>31059621
>massive adulteration problem during industrialization

This is because US markets at that time did not have quality control institutions, which are present now.

Not having QC or industrial standards for production creates something called a "transaction cost" for consumers; now they must test things on their own. The risk of finding tainted materials reduces consumer demand for a particular manufacturer's product; thus branding became important in the United States, because it communicated a commitment to quality for consumers. A no-name manufacturer you never heard of, versus one well recognized.

>fundamentally ignoring the thought process
No, I am completely factoring it in.

>Ethics and morality lie above the priority compared to food and shelter
This is irrelevant. The persons operating American corporations may be quite unethical and immoral. But there are mechanisms present in the human labor market here where their on-the-job conduct, if it should reflect underlying unethical/immoral behavior, would remove them from the enterprise.

This is your cognitive error, to think that human evolution is nationally dependent. We all respond to incentives, after all.

Not Chinese. So your insults don't matter.

You think China doesn't have food standards? Obviously any remotely competent country has them.

What you are repeatedly ignoring is China is an industrialising country. The systems although designed simply cannot be enforced due to the scale at which everything is changing.

Every week hundreds of thousands come to the city. How do you think the government is going to keep up their standards and shit?

Which is why like you agreed during industrialising America had its problems, the same problems persist with China.

I think you are conflating two issues here.

Accusation 1: Chinese are soul less cheats. they use gutter oil.

Answer: Because Chinese are industrialising they are looking to raise their living standards and are presented with an opportunity for the first time. they are seizing it by hook or crook.

Accusation 2: China does not enforce the rules for a fair market

Answer: The industrialization is happening on such a large scale, the govt literally does not have the mechanism to regulate it like western countries do even though laws are in place. That guy selling gutter oil stuff will not be selling with a registered business paying taxes. He is making money in the informal sector which will continue till they are developed.

The guys above me argued, Even though Chinese cannot enforce the laws, the Chinese farmer should have ethics to not make quick bucks like that. My reply hence did not include market control mechanisms

I was only speaking about the former. You are dealing with the latter.

>>31059761
>How do you think the government is going to keep up their standards and shit?

Again, the cognitive error. I said previously that the government intervention is largely responsible for their poor markets.

I did not make accusation 1; if you read, I said neither nation has greater human evolution than the other.

I also did not make accusation 2.

It is irrelevant what the farmer's ethics are. What matters is this -- are manufacturers and producers facing participation in a market where their economic survival is related to satisfying consumer demand, as it is in the United States.

This is why, despite being such an old civilization, China is still poor today. Why the average Chinese consumer has higher demand for foreign products compared to domestic products.

The purpose of the FC31 is to look like a 5th gen aircraft so that it can sell in a highly competitive market.

>>
>>31059837

Seriously man. Let me try again

Do you think all of China has only one brand of something? China internally has multiple companies fighting it out in the commercial space. All the accusations of state monopoly exist only in strategic industries. Like any other country.

This is why your arguments don't make sense. Do the Chinese have one single phone maker? One single car maker? one single anything?

They do have an open market which is highly responsive to the consumer demand. They have 10 + manufacturers who build above average phones and plenty that build shitty ones

So when there are food chains that offer 5 star experience to gutter oil fried noodles why do you think all of them exist?

Its not like every hotel is filthy. By your explanation, Since there are other hotels all this should have stopped right? why hasn't it?
And hence we go back to the two scenarios I told above.

China is an old civilisation. in 1949 it inherited nothing of that old civilisation. It was ravaged and pillaged. It did not have any working system.

>China is poor today

agree. Compared to USA it is poor. 1949, it was Africa tier poor. Now its brazil tier. and its trajectory shows its only going up. rapidly. See pic related

To summarise: Your accusations of china not having an open market for consumer goods and services is simply not true. Every product does have competition. Still the market fringes have shitty stuff and they don't seem to die. why?

>The only reason IBM sold its PC division was because it can't compete with mass production anymore.
CAN'T. COMPETE. Do you know why it can't compete? Because it can't differentiate itself in what is essentially a commodity space. Which is funny because ThinkPads had a CULT following, but IBM, for reasons I will not a hazard a guess on, did not refresh the design in a market that is constantly in flux. That's not a mass production issue, that's a design/strategy issue.

>Who gives a shit if Chinks can mass produced crap that someone else innovates?
See above. Also, if you think the consumer electronics space is just about mass production, you're wrong. But you're wrong about a lot of things, so I'll let that slide.

Why are you fucking fags always moving the goal post? I was STRICTLY talking about the IBM acquisition. Are you faggits so insecure that any comparative advantages that are not american must be instantly denied? What the fuck do you even do for a living?

By the way, I'm actually pretty familiar with TSMC, and unlike you, I actually did VLSI in school and have actually set foot in a fab. ARM is British, btw, and just because you're not familiar with foreign silicon IP doesn't mean they don't exist.

Sorry dude, but being able to compete in the commodity space doesn't count as innovation. If we're talking strictly about economic advantage then I agree that China holds them in certain sectors due to their economy of scale. What is completely wrong is equating China's manufacturing prowness with innovation.

>See above. Also, if you think the consumer electronics space is just about mass production, you're wrong. But you're wrong about a lot of things, so I'll let that slide.
What you wanna talk about MUH DIE SIZE AND PIXEL DENSITY ADVANCEMENT when competing? China doesn't even hold those advantages in the consumer electronics space. So yea, Chinese innovating nothing even with their manufacturing advantages.

Technically it was still IBM in every way but who profited from it. Same facilities, same branding, same design and components. Is modern Lenovo excellent? Yes, I even own an Ideapad Y50 and Yoga 2 10" Win, but that's because they had a massive head start over native Chinese "copy everything" culture. Even the "best" native phone brand looks like, and has Android heavily reskinned to resemble, an iPhone.

And it shows in the J31, where they copy the rough shape of the F-35, but not the details that matter, and had to squeeze in a second engine because the ones they could build don't provide enough thrust.

Lenovo was Legend prior to the IBM acquisition, and they were already a WELL established PC maker in China. No1 or 2, IIRC.

So you posit that by acquiring the AILING PC business from IBM, one that shriveled under intense competition from the likes of Dell and HP, one that the IBM board deemed a dead weight, they were able to somehow leapfrog some of the exist major AMERICAN competitors in the space?

Does that make any sense to you? Your position is that the Chinese copy everything, right? So how does fucking Lenovo compete with technology that is more than a decade old? How does Lenovo stay competitive today?

The only way you maintain consistency is to assert that it's Lenovo's US operations that is beating the competition, but this is the same operation, as you say, that was discarded by IBM.

They had no such reputation outside of China, so that means basically nothing. IBM could sell it fine, it was the PROFITS they couldn't finesse out of the division. And Lenovo bought both the expertise and the reputation of IBM PCs to be competitive in the West, which they didn't manage without.

no, they just didn't have a western presence. I think you underestimate the size of the Chinese domestic PC market, even in the early 2000s. Legend might not have been able to match the sophistication of its western peers, but that's only half the battle in the consumer electronics space. Size, distribution, manufacturing. These are what wins the low margin markets.

>IBM could (NOT) sell it fine
>it was the PROFITS they couldn't finesse out of the division
you know this is the same thing, right? Sure, I'll take a piece of shit laptop for base material cost... you catch my drift? Like I said before, it didn't make money from 2000, possibly even earlier since I don't think IBM does a breakdown for their PC business (in the quarterly filings). That means they weren't competitive in the space. It means it didn't have what the consumers wanted. Be it low price or tech features or whatever... doesn't matter really because the bottom line is IBM wasn't selling (at the price it demands, which means it wasn't selling).

So Lenovo bought the business, and you said there are two components
1) reputation (we call it brand equity)
2) technology

and I agree, although how much brand equity is left in the IBM brand for CONSUMER electronics, I don't know, but I'd guess it's lower than the stock you put in it (look at Polaroid and Kodak)

What doesn't make sense to me is that you believe the discarded IBM division, AS IS, without any input from Lenovo, was able to stage a turnaround in a market they've been losing in for years. Basically, you're saying that as soon as Lenovo bought the IBM business, it turned from turd to gold. Just instantly. With no inputs from Lenovo. This doesn't add up to me.

You only know if a weapon is good once you tested it in war-like conditions. Anything can be made to look good though.

Right now, having confidence in the F-35, and in the "it will", "in the future", "soon" and so on, is just a marker of arrogance and over confidence, which already led a program so massive it will be the costliest ever to be 10 years late, and probably up to 15 if the plane has to match the then current standards once it become operational against relevant threats.

Who, Japan? Because that's the only possible option. And even then Japan's native fighter in service is a modified F-16.

Basically this. China's major technological shortcoming as of right now, besides microprocessor design (they make a ton but they don't design em) is in alloy and composite technology. This affects their next-gen aircraft building capability in the extreme. Everything you see of theirs that looks 5th gen is for the most part a plane that looks 5th gen even though underneath it all it's fairly simple.

Chinese, and Indian for that matter, manufacturing and business culture in general is about pretense. The pretense of something working properly is often as good, and sometimes better, than something actually working properly.

I'm an architect who has spent a few years in China. They style things to look modern, but the technology to make it properly modern just isn't there.

A huge amount of spying is legal public data collecting. It's relatively harmless and it's much better to note who is doing it and keep an eye on them then to fuck around with trying to arrest people that aren't, technically, doing anything wrong.

China has a huge, hard time figuring out that when a specification says to use a expensive material that you can't just swap it out for alinimium or mild steel and get the same performance.

Yeah, there's nothing wrong with the aveonics package on a 737-800. It will get you safely to point A from point B, spot bad weather, communcate with the ground and provide all-condtions flying ability and a lot of useful assistant systems.

What it doesn't come with is a targeting and tracking radar, a search radar made to find aircraft not operating transponders, ground-search radar, radar warning receivers, defensive ECM, 360 degree IR warning receiver, strong encrypted communications, high bandwidth data-sharing and integration systems or IFF systems.

exactly what I was saying shithead
>>
>>31066562
Maybe anon was unwittingly their random white guy hired to make them look good, sure. But, what if whitey is right? What if he saw something that none of them ever noticed? If he was hired to just sit there and look pretty while occasionally doing the token assignment, it would make sense that he'd have a lot of time on hand to see things. Things that they'd easily overlook, but he wouldn't, since he's actually looking. But, that aside, what he's saying is true.

China's main weakness right now is advanced metallurgy and materials sciences. Without that, you can't have stealth coatings, let alone monocrystalline turbine blades.

Haha. So entrenched in your propoganda that you cannot accept facts that run counter to your propoganda.

Right till around 200 comments people made counter arguments to something they didn't agree with. The last 100 comments are nothing but insults traded back and forth on educational qualification and being 14 year olds. Jeesus. I can see why americans are one of the worst tourists.

I'll remind you that this entire thread was started with Chicom propaganda shitposting, and all of the rageposting was in response to a well-informed counterargument based on publicly available info on the J-31, though admittedly you'd never see any of that on the state-run news. And probably get thrown in prison for suggesting your government's fighters are anything but amazing superplanes.

>When will you learn to talk without being juvenile?
That? All of that was just responding in kind once your buddies lost their composure, because it's fun, and also fuck you, that's why.

Hey. Comrade.

If you keep replying, you'll keep getting shitpost replies. They shitpost, they keep getting paid.

Easiest way to hurt them? Stop replying. Keep being American. Keep buying American.

They don't get paid, their countrymen don't get paid, and they don't get validation for living in a failed socialist/imperialist cyberpunk dystopia.

You get quality goods and services that aren't looking to drain you of your money just because of your nationality, and the smug satisfaction of being freer than them.

Win/win.

You reply again is proof off all the propaganda you've been fed and take it by heart. As an outsider its hilarious.

All facts on the OP are from the open internet. Definitely not Chinese state media unless you consider F35 data as also from American state media.

And nobody is going to prison. That is again your brain washed self by propaganda. Surprising isn't it to know this? Yeah tends to happen when all you've known on china is propaganda.

No ones my buddies. I speak for my own.

Anyway everyone of your reply, even if it starts okay, quickly devolves to resorting to premade propaganda talking points fed to you by the NSA that you took to heart.

Please correct that and maybe you wont be accused of being an unreasonable person.

Yeah, no, nothing you've tried to argue invalidates the original point: that the floor plate was horrifically below spec to have flexed and moved like that. Also, why no emergency stop?

Fuck cunt, flex has nothing to do with panel displacement.
Your smelly cunt admitted it was a "installer" problem.

>>31067955
>Your smelly cunt admitted it was a "installer" problem.
At no point did I say that was the only cause you silly little boy. Obviously under spec to where it can flex and displace like that at all, even if not secured - manufacturer. No emergency stop(which is mandatory on US escalators, highly visible at both ends, and easy to hit) - manufacturer. And the installer and maintenance are just the last step of incompetence in that chain.

Also, official finding were that it was a design flaw, done playing the jackass?
