Does anyone follow Chinese economic policy? The reason Evergrande and other property developers got into today's trouble is: Chinese government stopped the banks providing loan to those companies with super high leverage by declaring the so called "3 red lines" policy. Until today, the...

Kiddo, just go back to play your toy. You won't understand these before you grow up.

Ok, no problem, keep posting if make you feel better.

Does these have anything to do with the question I was talking about here: who was more independent during cold war, UK or China?

No, they don't hate India. The issue is that India doesn't pay the price as much as Chinese did. Even before Chinese became West's ally, over 70 Chinese divisions were deployed on the Sino-Soviet border. After Chinese signed the deal with US, the understanding was as soon as the WW3 starts, no...

More independent? Really? How many US soldiers deployed in China during cold war era? Zero! How many US soldiers deployed in UK in the same period? over 50,000 in the peak! Since 1960s, UK has been using US manufactured missile system for her strategic warheads while Chinese had always been...

If that was a maintenance program, certainly replacing the blade of a compressor stage is part of their service. Why should they share the know-how with you? That is where their salaries come from. Unless in the contract, it was already included that they were supposed to give that part of...

It is funny that an Indian speaks like this as if his country's history under British colonization is kind of glorious history. Any source to support this? Simply I don't care what you want. This is Kaveri Engine thread, we are talking about Kaveri engine only. If you want to talk about...

Sorry to hurt your childish heart by pointing out the truth. But the fact is fact. At least, I didn't see any Chinese compare their engine to West or even Soviet engine before seeing one hour flying. Well, obviously, Dr Mohana Rao doesn't agree with you: "The reason was two-fold”, explains...

How many Ghatak UCAV are in operation? Zero! How many flying hours have these Kaveri engine accumulated on UCAV? Zero! You forgot to mention: the target dry weight of Kaveri is 1100kg (last time I check it was still overweighted) while the dry weight of M88 is only 897kg.

Why you need performance data of the part of a foreign jet engine to validate your own component? If your product is truly indigenous, then the material is different, the processing is different, even the design concept is different, in other words, the targets of the most of the performance...

They simply can't even if they want. There is quite a lot material, components and subsystems are coming from their suppliers. They simply don't know why either.

Kid, the suppliers of most of these subsystems are in Russia not Ukraine. The only few that Ukraine provided were Su-33 prototype and a part of engine system.

That was not true at all. Chinese bought an empty shell from Ukraine. All the subsystems were removed or not even installed long before Chinese made offer. The Russians even exploded some key part of internal structure to make sure Chinese couldn't fix it in short time. Just have a look of the...

There is no flight certification in Chinese jet engine development but tech certification and production certification. But Chinese doesn't have the tradition of publication of any weapon certification, so the only way we know if WS-15 is successful is: whether there is many pictures of J-20...

No, they were not. They clearly knew what they were doing and what the consequences would be. It was 1946, Europe was divided and conquered by 2 superpowers. Even British was on her knees. The only chance that Europe and UK could recover was the confrontation between 2 superpowers. But it was...

Did I say or even imply that no other countries' scientists involved? Full article: “Crucial? Helpful? Practically Nil?” Reality and Perception of Britain’s Contribution to the Development of Nuclear Weapons during the Second World War (tandfonline.com) The Story of How Britain Got Nuclear...

That is exactly why it is too low! Without airborne test, the so called life cycle hours is simply an estimation from paper. The history tells that the actual hours would be much lower than this figure. And don't forget this is without afterburner. That means if you put the missing part on, the...

Wrong history! It was the British which started the nuclear bomb program early before US, and already achieved certain progress long before Americans. But the war sucked out all their resources, so they had to work with Americans. As part of deal, British transferred all their achievement to US...

You simply can't do it in short term because: 1. For any company, state owned or private owned, they need a great number of experts with special knowledge to handle the related R&D in multiple fronts - structural mechanics, hydrodynamic, micro-electronic, etc, etc, the private companies in...
