A new Chinese fighter has appeared on the Internet

Yeah, when the Pentagon professes that something is years away from reality, I figure they are just trying to keep Joe Citizen from realizing we're screwed. Who really knows, other than the Chinese government, just how close they are to having a stealth aircraft? Seems to me it was a real shock to the U.S. when Soviet built B-29's (Tu-4) were part of the Soviet Union's Aviation Day parade in 1947.
 
Chinia is Years away?...........yet they are nuclear,have the Fastest Computer in the world,the highest speed rail system,cranking out smart kids by the Millions....now a Capitalist econmy,with Communst control..what a paradox......those missles soon ,if not now capable of knocking out Carriers......all this and to include them being our Bankers...I do not know whats in the Future..but the old reasons for Conflict are always at play....Land,Energy,Natural Resources and Ideoligy...Years behind??..sound like they are on schedule......We showed that thru Cyber technolgy we were able to disrupt Iran's Nuclear operation for a while,Proves whats out going can be in coming!.....Nothing is For sure no more, old enough to remember the same old rhetoric...Prior to WW2,Korea,Nam,...

'TO KEEP THE PEACE PREPARE FOR WAR".....like maybe the F-35??..:salute:
 
As I mentioned in the older thread, it's more of a high speed interceptor. Judging from the ground clearance it is obviously meant to carry some payload underneath, and location of the main carriage hints at central weapons bay similar to F22. Also, it seems to be larger than F22 and lacks thrust vectoring.. unless they've "borrowed" MiG-29 OVT's nozzle design.
 
The Chinese are masters of disinformation, same as the Russians. For all we know this new jet could be just a pair of old MiG-21 engines in a mock-up airframe. This is a perfect time to be displaying such a piece of window dressing, now that F-22 production has been chopped by the present administration. If/when the design goes into flight testing then we'll all have a feel for just how big a threat it really is. Keep in mind that up until about 10-15 years ago these people were still manufacturing steam locomotives for their railroads. :rolleyes:
 
Welllll, personally, i'm gonna relax i think.. i dont think anyones lieing about stealth fighters being years away, bcause this thing is as big as a vulcan ( or bigger ) soo, theres no way it can be a fighter,,, Just one more nuclear bomber... guess the cold war is back on again..
:;sigh::
 
Well, they may be masters in deception, but there has always been safety in numbers and China now possesses all the numbers.

Saying all that,I can not believe Chinia whats to get fried ,like we would if they tried something that irrational..they may try the DEATH of a Thousand cuts..Oriental Patience!!..the COLD WAR taught us that..mutual annihilation benefits no one...its in the LUNATIC area's like their client State North Korea,and the Iranians...I would think those are the great unknowns,and the great dangers....Israel Knows this..twice already they altered the Nuclear balance....like Monoply, now its who has the most stuff..the most money the biggest markets.and the hold one energy....being in HOCK does not help,yet we have to maitain our capabilitys..we may remember the missiles that wounded us at home were our own civil airliners!!......like every generation before us,I Trust The USA to come out on top,whats the Greatest Generation?? Why its the one your living in now!!
 
OOOPS! If its I...sorry ..not meant to be....its Just sunday night BLOVIATING!...While watching PHILIA get LUMPED by the Packers..I would think my GLEE with that Surly would get an excuse for the DUCT TAPE TREATMENT...Have Fun Friend!!...Vin:wavey:
