<t> If this is the case, then China’s cautious and pessimistic approach to procure Su-35S from Russia is making quite a sense. Before the reassessment due to the dubious claim of L-band sensors for anti-stealth searching purpose, it was rumored to be PLAAF’s sidekick for countering LO assets and ...

I have difficulty to comprehend the meaning of “advanced” in Taiwanese standard, when in fact China has 3 kinds of stealth fighters in the air, and rumored a stealth bomber being teased multiple times for the ...

Given by series of fiascos to the world in 2020 ahead,I have difficulty to see world military trying to refrain themselves from further complicate the use of assets that can be instantaneously proved to be ...

Reminds me of ARMA III Bullshittery series. No need to serious about warfare sims and have some fun by making ridiculous scenarios.

The idea of converting old washed up aircraft to UAVs is interesting. I was thinking some faction within the PLA might use them in a civil war. Then I thought maybe a China civil war scenario might be interesting to set up. Lots of "toys" to ...

Why should China feel the need to answer to the US exit from the INF? China was never a INF signatory to begin with, and the continued adherence to the INF was to a great disadvantage for the US.

<t> Metal fatigue is the dire reason. Even J-6 just get overhauled after the decommission (2006) and mothballed for 15 years, there are surely need to take weeks to inspect all the parts to ensure it still stays structural intact. J-7 maybe, but JL-9 that is still manufacturing as a trainer would be ...

<t> I am somewhat amused to see PL-15 is once again being frequently mentioned, amid securing the procurement of “AAM killer”, and the proliferation of the extended-range BVRAAMs. An arm race within a day. <br/>

Can't argue with anything you've said. Certainly a smaller drone can do things a maned aircraft can't. Certainly can pull more G's without a pilot to black out.

<r> CCTV do forgot to report this particular drone during the Military Parade for 70th China Anniversary. FX-500 UAV is kinda like a smaller version of WJ-600 jet-powered UCAV, but designed for ELINT and electronic countermeasures:<br/>

Excellent screencaps, Hongjian!

Right now I am tidying all the revealing weapon pictures and writing their descriptions.
