Sorry to step in, but since You get personlly rude again … let me just add a few notes:
so writing book about Chinese aviation makes him expert on Ukranian defence industry and its prospects.
That’s simply wrong. I never claimed to be an expert on Ukrainian aviation, the same for Russian … but at least I do not tell such stupid things that the “power of an Air Force equals the export sales as the most important factor. By the way anytime heard how often Russian aviation experts or high ranking militaries overrate their own abilities ??? Maybe they are over-enthusiastic, maybe they know things we all here don’t know (that’s for sure) or they are simply drunk !
So where are the six super-carrier battle groups, that were promised a few years ago for the mid of the next decade (http://defense-update.com/newscast/0808/070803_russian_navy_expansion_plans.html#more) or even this joke:
Russian 6th generation warplane to be created in 12 years :highly_amused::highly_amused: (see: http://en.itar-tass.com/russia/740838)
well endless supply of money can continue projects for years but at some point this unviable projects. (building C919 in Shanghai with global parts. read about cost of living and pollution) will become unaffordable. Y-20 is another failed project in making. there are countless in helicopters. L-15 extremely slow production rate after 9 years in flight tests with imported engine.
Correct in the first part – but the same goes for Russia with its falling income within the next years due to this crisis – but otherwise again wrong: What has pollution and living cost to be for predicting the C919 to be a failiure ??? (the same could be said for the MS-21) or where are so many failed helicopter projects that are relevant to anything with the Y-20 ??? (which IMO will be build in larger numbers than Your beloved Il-476 … surely not yet but let’s wait a few years !) and regarding the L-15 – better known as the JL-10 – it will be produced in larger numbers than the Yak.-130 … and by the way since when is that type under development (1992-2002… upps that even one year longer !), how many years were the flight testing long (2002-209 due to how many crashes ??) and how many have been build so far ???
Anyway the Yak-130 will have a bright future I’m sure … but the JL-10 in PLAAF-servise too.
I said his more optimistic about Chinese products not just his always present in Chinese threads. He has zero idea about Ukranian defence industry. considering he even did not know the Joint venture for Yak-130 engine and assuming everything coming from Ukraine.
I knew but I only questioned if a nearly full autonomy from Ukraininian supply will be done within one year … like You suggested. And regarding my over-optimistic altitude in nregard to CHinese projects, the same could be said for Your altitude in regard to Russain projects … however I don’t tell the world that China will do or have this and that then and when … I present or post most of all images, which tragically seem to hurt Your Russian pride more than they feed my enthusiasm !
my predictions are correct more often than his. he was celerabrating J-10B induction ahead of time (plane without TVC, CFT, no carrier version). infact this plane is flight tests for 5 years. all he do is overestimating Chinese success in aviation sector without zero indepth analysis.
Again where do I overrate … I simply have that strange feeling that each and every new project from China is gaining momentum (even small one) it reminds You how far Your beloved Russian migh is falling behind, how much others (and not China alone) is catching up and that hurts You so much that You are blinded by anger to be rational … but O.k. … where did I celebrate the J-10B as being introduced into service (just quote my post !) and even more why has the maiden flight of the first serial versions anything to do with the lack of “TVC, CFT, no carrier version” ???? Are You stupid man ??? Give me that link and I promise You to resign from posting here in this forum for ever !
But just let us end this nonsense here … simply since You can’t proof any of Your accusations and You know it.
Have a nice evening and dream on Your day-dreams,
Deino
