Solo Right convenient. Officially, the Mitsubishi Heavy Industry -assembled F-35A was on a 4-ship training exercise. The one that crashed happened to be the leader of the flight who had over 3000 hours experience, but only 60 hours on a F-35. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arogab Turbocharged November 15, 2019 Share November 15, 2019 Right now J-20 maybe got at most 20 over units as they cannot Mass Pro them.

Unless go euro Our country and air space is so tiny. if we are worry about threat from air. we should be buying air defence like s400. a dozen of S400 will be more then enough to protect our air space. (at maybe 5% of the cost ) despite talk about how old our f16 is, they are still way above our immediate threat. not to mention we still got f15. buying f22 to protect our air space is like buying a ferrari to drive on PIE cos u are afraid of those commerical vehicle running faster then u. thats why i say the political factor over the purchase overweight the def factor by ALOT.

The air force is meant to be able to carry out a massive strike to knock out an opponent. Its very much more an offensive , not just defensive arm... which ties in with F35 which are designed with ground attack in mind though it's still a fighter. Can't do that with s400... or s500 ... etc etc. Also they're heavy systems that need a huge fixed deployment area, plus integration into nation AA system.. its like we android.. trying to integrate apple os.. just much much worse. With the gradual progression of the heavy Russian Su series fighters into SEA air forces.. the f16 are reaching the end of the line, the f15 still holding on for foreseeable future. If it's just for politics, can just buy new f16 or f15 .. but it isn't the main concern. Hard choices 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cockpit panel readings were green but ground data sensors sounded a warning and ground control ordered the test to be aborted immediately, just three minutes into the procedure. “According to retro analysis, had the order been 2 to 3 minutes later, a major accident could have occurred,” Avic said on its social media account on Wednesday to mark the 11th anniversary of the plane’s maiden flight. https://www.scmp.com/news/china/military/article/3163526/close-calls-chinas-j-20-stealth-fighters-deployment-avic-says The front look like F22 Raptor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
