China launches new stealth fighter project Got spare money?

Well, I figure there is a good chance this will be deleted by Ming as spam, but if you get to see it and are interested to follow a thread on the subject at CivFanatics that he can't delete.

http://www.janes.com/defense/air_fo...21210_2_n.shtml

The Chinese fighter being stealthy beats any fighter in the world that isn't basicly. So only the full stealth US fighters are superior and the new French fighter at least equal, being stealthy.

Also, speculation is it will have vectored thust. Any Euro fighters other than Harrier have that?

Well, this thread has no more right to exist than my thread on freezing Florida citrus so I guess I'll bid it fair journey to deletion.

Ming deletes threads that aren't spam instead of just closing them because he doesn't want to have to explain why he closed them. Gets rid of the evidence that he uses his mod powers for personal use.

Anyway, he can't delete the thread at CivFanatics, so check it out.

That fighter project sure is stealthy. When I go to that page, it sneaks away and I get " Sorry, we can't find that page. "

Really Ming? So a simple statement of fact counts too. I figured as much.

Regarding the topic, I read somewhere that some of the tech for the new Chinese fighter came from the stealth fighter downed by Serbia.

Maybe if you had stated a fact... instead, you just stated an incorrect opinion. Your "real" threads don't get deleted. Only your spammy threads. So yes, a pure whine, but to be expected from you.

What's to be expected from you Ming? Drunken parties, closed threads and banned posters? Save your moral judgements eh? People who live in glass houses...

UR, are you refering to the multi directional radar? I've heard about it but don't understand it. Do you have any idea how it works? How do you see something that absorbs radar?

Well Lancer... Dis is right. If this thread is just a lame attempt on your part to continue this whining... then it will be deleted, and you wil be suspended.

You are the one that started the thread with your childish whine. If you hadn't, I would never even have posted in your serious thread. But no, you are the one that started it... So don't try to take the moral high ground. Everybody knows the truth just by looking at your first post.

So if you wish to continue your baiting and childish behaviour... feel free. You will get suspended, and your thread will be closed. And not because it's spam, but because of your behaviour in it.

Have a nice day.

UFOs or Chinese stealth fighter? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Read 'One Chop Shop' too.

Then it appears that either the stealth is already flying or China is ground zero for the alien invasion.

Hail Mary, full of grace, may the link work:

http://www.beijingscene.com/v07i002/inshort.html

So, if the Chinese stealth is flying NOW instead of ten years down the line, are you at all concerned? The story says it will go into service in 2005, just around the corner...

Could stealth be Chinas way of getting to Tiawan? If they can knock out Tiawans missile defenses and take out their fighters then can the Chinese successfully invade?

They said first flight will be around 2010. That means active duty around 2015/16. The F-22 should enter service 2004/5

True, but Russian equipment can't compete with the top-of-the-line ships fielded by the US (and to a lesser extent) Taiwan and Japan.
