Merry Christmas From China

Surely not , you cant see much from the picture.
|
What you can assess from such a picture tends to depend on your education, training, experience, knowledge of various aircraft design features ....sorry I am getting carried away and stating the obvious.
|
You can measure angles, and as there are a bunch of people (for one example of a yardstick) you can measure size/length.... a long way from 'everything' but assuming your photo is genuine you can learn quite a lot of obvious stuff, before looking for the less obvious.

How come if it's Chinese it's got big red stars on the tail? Photoshopped bag of wanq.
|
Chinese insignia is a red star on a red band...
|
Look closer at the picture...
http://sitelife.aviationweek.com/ver...9bdb8.Full.jpg and I see more of this... http://english.people.com.cn/mediafi...2540930079.jpg ...the PLAAF's Star than that of the Russian Air Force Star... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...d_star.svg.png Or, if it is Russian then they may be visiting for Foreign Military Sales - I don't know what's worse!!! :eek: iRaven |
In fact there's loads of information if you Google J-14, J-20 or J-XX and you'll turn out images of

Well when I've seen Chinese air army 'planes at places such as Shantou I've only seen the red star with the red band through it. Anyways I guess like any country they can R&D new 'planes. Doesn't mean they are any good does it?
|
...and there I was thinking you meant the Chinese increasing their interest rates on Xmas day when all the Western markets were closed!!
|
I don't know why it wouldn't be any good because its Chinese.
The laptop i'm using is built in China and its the best on the market. Know your enemy. |
Overestimating your adversary is a big mistake.

But 1000X worse is the opposite...................:cool:

I was under the impression that the internal structure of stealth aircraft had to be stealthy too*, which the airframe in the large pic seems not to be.
Of course, it matters not whether this new type is excellent or rubbish to be honest. It will still easily defeat types like the F22 or Typhoon on a basis of superior numbers alone (in a 'full on' fight)! *This is only what I have heard, and claim to have no knowledge on this subject at all. |
|
Did I miss something or is Year 2011, Rising of Eastern Dragon PLAAF?
|
Can the F-35 already be considered 'toast'?
Discussed here: What China's New J-20 Stealth Fighter Means for the F-35 JSF and F/A-18E/F Super Hornet |
So it seems the raptor now has 2 tribute acts, how come we never saw grainy photos of facsimile f117s or b2s? Or praps they're too good to show up on film?!
