The timeline of Type 003 is still unclear, my guess it will be largely dependent on the progress of development of a carrier-borne reactor, as well as suitable steam turbines. Chinese technology on 4th Gen civilian purpose reactors are quite mature now, both in terms of hardware and software...

That's almost a done deal.

At the dawn of the new year, trusted and validated sources on Chinese forums have unveiled information about the commencement of construction of a third aircraft carrier in Shanghai JiangNan Shipyards (Changxin Island). So far the detailed design is fully completed and drawings are being sent to...

People are talking about more than 16 of these ships planned.

kk, got what you meant, indeed BMs can reach such speed at their terminal phase, but only during reentry, after reentry it actually starts to slow down to below heat barrier zone. CM400AKG only reaches M4.0 at its terminal stage, that being said, it still remains super-sonic during most of its...

Anyways, a constant density is a good assumption in many cases, but an assumption is an assumption after all, ideally we want to represent physical processes as accurate as possible, which means the fewer assumptions there are, the better. I don't use Ansys no more, I use OpenFOAM and developed...

Stay objective please, reasoning is a virtue man~ While indeed most of the crashes of J-10 are resulted from issues with this russian engine, I still blame WS-10 for its significantly delayed time frame. Anyways, WS-10 is finally coming!

Another crash, said to be Navy J-10S, reason unknown. Both pilots ejected safely.

M25.0=8.5km/s, that's faster than the escape velocity of this planet, your Agni V going at M25 will not return back to target, instead, it will fly into earth's orbit and become a missile-shaped satellite~:azn:

Plus that, in almost all cases, compressible models are better than incompressible models, the trick is whether you consider the benefit of taking compressibility into consideration worthwhile since the extra coding effort and CPU time you put into it.

Even for low Mach numbers, sometimes compressible flow still has to be considered. In fact, in one of my projects, I use compressible models for an air chamber with velocity as low as 10cm/s, because I need to consider the phase difference between the motion of the liquid phase and the air. I...

I'll try doing so whenever I have time.

With whatever evidence and analysis you have provided, it remains highly dubious of what you are claiming. If you insist on your opinion, you can certainly provide solid evidence and fact-based logic behind your conclusion (aka "applying knowledge of a domain and its tools", are you familiar...

I was there..

It is highly unlikely that you can deduce technological origin based on mere eye-balling of such scarce, if not none, similarity between these two aircrafts. I can judge, by eyeballing, that all fixed-wing aircraft are merely copies and/or evolutions from Chinese Kites--they both had a body and...

It is neither a missile nor an aircraft. DF-ZF is a hypersonic gliding vehicle capable of both nuclear and conventional strike globally, it has to be launched into sub-orbit using stages of ballistic missile, it is not designed to carry any pilot or human being, come on dude, we are not Japanese...

Nov 2014 batch is NOT a newly built in this case, these photos of WS-10 J-10s came out one or two months ago, so you might wanna take the context into consideration. After all, "newly built" is not a precise description of time, so how new is "newly built" is subject to my discretion but that...

poor translation mate, google translation not to be trusted.

I am freaking fed up of such kind of vague clueless dreams. If you'd have any briefest moment of sanity you'll understand it is not possible to construct and commission a carrier in a matter of one to two years. Let along constructing THREE carriers at the present time is too radical to say the...

A Mustang 1967 is definitely a better bet over a Mustang 1973. That silhouette is just fascinating. Plus, if you renovate a Mustang 1967 with modern 4.6L V8 engines with supercharge and ECU boost, enhanced stiffness body support, removal of unnecessary dead weight and newly designed suspension...
