What's new

China's KJ-600 photo leaked! The first Chinese Navy Carrier Based Early Warning Aircraft details exposed

Cool, what's the details on this? Can't watch the video, I'm at work 😫

@Deino

Tagging you because you'll probably be more interested in this than me, and probably know more as well.
 
It has wings and wheels and two propellers so its 100% a copy... LOL....
Following is KJ-500 that has existed quite many years now in Chinese air force, KJ-600 is based on KJ-500, how similar !

You know everybody doesn't have to draw pictures in Michelangelo's style..there are other artists such as Rembrandt/Van Gogh/Monet whose styles are actually appreciated..and thankfully the world had people like this...but apparently this concept is beyond your comprehension.
Talk nonsense, we are talking fighters, not artists creations.
 
That's only from outside look.
outside matters, especially when a radar is mounted on its roof. The E2 Hawkeyes suffered a host of problems for a decade inadequate power and cooling , vibrations and interference from the props. It took years of incorporating lessons learnt from operational deployment to reach current levels of operational reliability and effectiveness. Even so, some issues don't have an engineering solution and requires skilled, experienced operators to work around these problems.

This is why things like the airplane, car, and train were invented by Westerners and not the Chinese.

You simply can't see things like different artists can.
It's exactly the same as artist's creations..but you just can't see it.

You think the tilt-rotor came from some AI program? No, it was from some engineer(s) looking at current helicopter technology and were thinking very differently.

Lol, that's becos Western tech had advanced to that stages to bring out those inventions.

The Chinese have been master kite flyers for a long time but the Wright brothers somehow beat you at your own game with basically a powered kite.


The plane should have been a Chinese invention...but nobody in China took the time to put 2 and 2 together. So now it will always be remembered as a Western invention.

That is no surprise since the West was engaged in a frenzy of explorations, experiments, discoveries and inventions for the past few centuries. There was no such spirit and activities in China in the past centuries.

Well you still aren't showing much spirit with your E2-Hawkeye clone.

The Chinese maybe not want to have a revolutionary design from inside to outside for their first naval AEW&C, or the product could end up like the US navy's Zumwalt-class destroyer a total failure. Who to say that KJ-600 is a clone of E2-H becos they look similar outside. KJ-600 is based on Chinese air force KJ-500.


By the way, a note:

Wong Tsu​


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In this Chinese name, the family name is Wong.
Wong Tsu

Wong Tsu (also spelled Wong Tsoo, Chinese: 王助; pinyin: Wáng Zhù; 10 August 1893 – 4 March 1965) was a Chinese aeronautical engineer who was the first aeronautical engineer at Boeing.

Life and education[edit]​

Wong was born in Beijing, Qing China. At the age of 12, he was selected as a naval cadet; at 16, he was sent to England to study naval engineering, then to the United States to study aeronautical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) during the period of great social and political upheaval in China.

Work[edit]​

Wong graduated from MIT with a degree in aeronautical engineering in 1916. He then learned to fly at the Curtiss Flying Boat School in Buffalo, New York. In May 1916, the fledgling Boeing Airplane Company hired Wong as their first trained aeronautical engineer.[1][2] He helped design the company's first successful product, the Boeing Model C,[3][4] more than 50 of which the U.S. Navy purchased.[3] In light of the financial windfall brought from the Navy purchases, "from Bill Boeing onward, the company's chief executives through the decades were careful to note that without Wong Tsu's efforts, especially with the Model C, the company might not have survived the early years to become the dominant world aircraft manufacturer."[4]

So he worked for Boeing on the Model C seaplane for about a year in 1916. Is that supposed to be directly related to the 707 jet or something?

Boeing already had built the Model 1 and Model 2

You do know that there were other planes and companies back then..right?

Are you kidding ? 707 came out much later in Boeing. Did you read the article on Wong, he made very significant contribution to the development of first successful Boeing airplane in the critical early development of Boeing company. He was the first aeronautical engineer at Boeing.

The copy-and-paste factory in China continues to churn out more American copies.

At least, the Turks have clean slate and original designs. This is why I would always respect and rate Turkish products higher.
I dunno man, their new fighter looks like a F-22.
 
Copy or not I can clearly see it brings much burn to some parties. :enjoy:
