Again, that is a very weak engine. But I am glad you are proud of it. The WS-10G and WS-15 are tagged at 160kn and 180kn respectively. It will be fun to see what all three engines power in the future! I like you Indx, but both you and I know that I am replying to Indian sour grapes about...

Nope, you Indians rant in the China Watch with your sour grapes and racist replies. I reply with pictures and a reasonable explanation of why your LUH/LCH are really just off-the-shelf screwdriver projects. For example, even something as simple as the gun on the LCH is foreign. It is a French...

This is a better scout attack helo that doesn't depend on foreign parts like the LCH. The WZ-19! There are many, many Z-19 (and Z-10) in service. But only 4 LCH built? That is not a very useful number at all! But I like how you post many pictures of the same four over and over :india:

I actually asked for pictures of a flying Indian engine testbed and an Indian plane powered by an Indian engine. I am glad you have something to be proud of in the LCH! But to the outside world, the LCH is a very irrelevant and weak system. It, like its Dhruv parent, is mainly an...

I ask for Indian pictures because Indians talk so much about chinese "copies" like it was copied from Indians or something. If you want to insult the Chinese with their many, many, many engine and airframe projects, you should at least have something as simple as a working killer drone. You...

Eurocopter has many projects and many ToT (transfers of technology) with China. The 312E is simply a Chinese built version approved by Eurocopter. All this talk of copy this, copy that is silly. You need an industrial base to make an airplane. There is no way of getting around that.

Exactly. You can't "copy" a plane. You have to build it.

Last news was it was being tested in the air on the Il-76 testbed: :)

No you Indians are always trying to disparage Chinese by calling everything "reverse engineering" which is silly and sour grapes. China trades many times more with advanced nations that you claim we are copying. If that is true, they could simply embargo China. and trade drops. But that is not...

@TechStyle, very happy for your 25kn htfe-25! There is a new variant of the WS-10, the WS-10G -- around 150kn, that is currently in the works for the upgrade of the J-11 fleet. It is reportedly on the J-11D already. It will be fun to see what those will power in the future! :clap2:

You have a strange idea of trolling. How can I "troll" in a Chinese thread? It is you Indians who come here using racial stereotypes because you are jealous. BTW, more Chinese travel outbound than any other country in the world. And spend more money than other group of tourists. Nothing...

Oh so the China Watch here is just so the Indians can insult Chinese people with racial stereotype? Chinese people are not allowed to post anything positive in reply because it would hurt your feelings being so far behind? All I posted are news and pictures. If you feel insulted by chinese...

If I wanted to "downplay" Indians I would do it in other parts of the forum. This is the China Watch and you Indians are the ones coming here and using racist stereotypes against chinese people and then get upset at pictures and news showing otherwise.

Again, that is the same racist excuse Indian used to denigrate the Chinese to make themselves feel better. It also shows a complete lack of understanding of industrial processes. You cannot "copy" an engine or an airframe like a piece of paper or software code. You need to build an entire...

From Taobao: The WS-15 completed its ground test on August 9th 2015. Its thrust reached during ground was actually 12% higher than the original core design which was TWR 10 according to the 2003 document. So instead of 180kn, this engine could produce near 200kn! The TWR 11+ WS-15 variant is...

This is the China country watch, you don't have to come here if you don't want to read about Chinese things like the WS-15. Or is the China Watch only for Indians to insult Chinese people with racist comments to make themselves feel better about being so far behind?

This thread is about the super cool development of the WS-15 which is the intended powerplant for future J-20 variants. It has reached 180kn of force in ground tests. It will soon begin testing on a CFTE Il-76 flying test platform. A major step towards induction. For comparison, the F119 of...

BTW, Chinese drones are already killing people with their missiles around the world. Please read my drone thread. Lots of videos there!

Okay, let's see if the WS-15 with 180kn gets in first on the J-20 or the Kaveri with 80kn and no ab on a drone. :)

That is a very poor and funny and naive excuse. When it comes to national security no one cares about IP. If you can make something that works on your own for national security you would do it. India just can't do it. India doesn't care about IP from drug companies by making unlicensed...
