>J-20 >supposed to use Russian engines for the first batch

How much longer till China starts undercutting Russia on all the aircraft sales to African and middle eastern nations?

>>35106688
Would always go Russian over chinese
Even if it was only for aircraft that look gorgeous on tarmac

That's what people were saying about phones for a while. Now Huawei has overtaken Apple as the world’s second-biggest smartphone maker by sales.

>>35106448
china already was planning to use ws since forever
the only reason they tested the russian engines was for compartibility tests

>>35108438
Russian engines are still superior, which is pretty sad because Russian engines suck already pretty hard compared to western engines.

>>35108468
thats not really the point
they are superior indeed but they do giveaway a big ass heat signature
there were rumors here and there from people involved on the old militaryphotos site that the russians wanted to test a new type of engine based on the cooling system of the rocket engines basicly using the fuel as a coolant and having an efficiency up to 90% almost

i can only assume that either it failed horribly or they might showcase it in the future

>>35108500
That isn't really workable.

The limit to a jet's operating temperature is what the blades in the turbine can take. Liquid cooling isn't really workable for them.

Cooling nozzles with fuel uses cryogenic fuel. Jets don't use cryogenic fuel.

>>35106688
Not too long. Nobody trust either's support but China is getting better and Russia is getting worse.

>>35106688
China's air force absorbs everything the industry can produce right now. And it will stay this way for some time.

>>35108601
well they literally hacked DoD some years ago stealing lots of shit according to them

>>35108573
that is why i said similiar not identical

>>35108020
its just a count of sales pf phones sold. huawei makes more lower end models not competitive high end models to compete with apple, hence sales boost and huawie is subsidised. most profits still go to apple. and its temporary until iphone8 comes out.

>>35108020
By selling trash phones to retarded third worlders not by being bought by actual humans

well they already pump air through the turbine blades..

Also pulse detonation engines are best.

>Toyota has now overtaken Bentley in total sales of cars

>>35109034
>not competitive
>taking market share

These two sentences don't go together.

>>35106448
So it's shit, as we all expected.

>>35109169
>Bentley is owned by VW
>VW sells more cars on the planet than anyone

Bad analogy.

Except that Toyota is capable of tremendous things. They are a technological leader and all of that. Bentley still makes unibody cars out of steel.

>>35109223
I could be wrong but I thing Toyota retook the position.

Sorry, my /o/ side was reeeeeing at you two.

>>35109333
VW was #1 in 2016. Too early to claim a winner this year so far.
