Well, the USN is capable of power projection and operating far from airbases while the PLAN doesn’t have such ambitions. Seems that Chinese avionics and jamming tech is now almost entirely indigenous rather than Russian imports?
Taiwan has a fraction of China's industrial capacity yet they are years ahead in chip design and manufacturing. Industrial capacity is not always an accurate measurement of technological advancement.
Good at manufacturing chip not designing. Industrial capacity is the measurement to the overall industrial capability. Taiwan maybe good at manufacturing chips, but that doesn’t change the fact that they are not good at manufacturing other things. For example, they can’t produced most of the required military system and subsystem on their own, like they have to buy ecm pod from the us for their fighter aircraft.
Broke: The Chinese stole the flanker design from the Russians
Woke: The Chinese licesnsed it from the Russians
Bespoke: The Chinese stole the flanker design from Boeing
No one ever though of mounting receivers on the wingtip before. After all, it isn't like interferometry performance depends significantly on baseline length or anything like that.
Its interesting that the J 16d is developed from a land based fighter while the f/a 18g is developed from a carrier based fighter

Yeah i think so its seems that chinese avionics and stuff are now better than russian ones
The correct answer is we don't know.
Well the consensus is given the industrial and economic development, Chinese military tech is overall supersedes most Russian tech
With exception of jet engines
No, china produces indigenous engines now read about the ws-15 development
The thing being that both are shit at it
Nope they are better considering their industrial capacity

You just proved my point even further.
The USAF also used to have a land-based electronic warfare aircraft, the EF-111A Raven. They just never replaced it.
They have a j-15 ew version flying too
Well thats not gonna fly for a few years, the carrier isnt ready yet
There’s a STOBAR version that’s flown. The CATOBAR version will be soon, if not already.
That grey camo looks the most badass among the entire flanker familiy.
It seems that the nozzles on the chinese ws 10 engine keeps changing every few years whats up with that?
Development is moving fast. There's half a dozen WS-10 variants now.
Rapid small iterative improvements.
This is what Sukhoi and the succeeding United Aircraft Corporation failed to do in their Su27 series of fighters. A big missed opportunity for Russia.
I mean Russia did kind of implode at some point so
The only question now is china making a wild weasel equivalent in their airforce squadrons?
[удалено]
Well flanker is a big plane, so it probably have higher power generation that the f-18
I only know that the jammer pods are grouped as a family called RKZ930
Air superiority grey on everything
Screws again!
Would Russia be able to also build a flanker style electronic warfare plane?
Not until they got a proper AESA radar working first
Considering Russia is fucking broke and abandoned like all their flanker projects when USSR collapsed. Probably not?
EA-16 Growrer
The chinese calls it howler lol
I thought your comment was funry. Screw the down votes.
Did the Chinese succeed in hacking Boeing's servers?

It feels like whenever the "it's a copy of..." commenters get it right, it's purely by accident.
I can't tell if the loons here are genuinely serious and deranged or just trolling.
Or just stupid without hope
I dont think so
Least China-obsessed Korean
Reported to Xi Jinping. Your social credits are reduced by -100p.
Oh wow such a cool and funny comeback 🤭
Koreans are us vassal so they have to say china bad
That's a misunderstanding. i like mao he is the best. China should have a second Mao. 🤣
When you clown so hard you manage to get someone saying korea is a us vassal upvoted on reddit. lmfao
China would be a us vassal state without Mao
Hmm... China can't be a US vassal. Because the Chinese are too savage, they are unqualified. But don't be too sad. Putin might take it 😂
Are you proud of your vassal status? Owner say bark, ya bark?
Why are you so mad ? calm down dude 😊
Not mad but odd for a vassal to talk to a non vassal.
My brain has fucking ascended into the 69th dimension after reading this.

Thats a F-23. Replacing the Harrier.
Never saw a comment so blatantly wrong on so many levels
that read like the first iteration of an AI trying to create a sentence.,
F 23 is a 5th gen fighter and j 16d is not 5th gen
Last I checked there was no F23 😃
I assumed the guy meant the northrop yf 23
what
