This is the new way of combat for burgers Jow Forums not sure if I should have a boner or not at this idea.
China is also working on unmanned jet drones to augment their J-20 program. But they don't have flying examples yet I believe, like the US Navy's carrier tested X-47B.
Oh and potential laser self defense systems for fighters to detonate warheads if Darpa ever figures out the cooling issues. We are talking like the size of a college dorm fridge

a pilot is a negligible costt of a modern jet fighter, the only thing that is really needed is teaching pilots not to needlessly stress the airframe, which causes maintenance needs to go up 10x

Wew lad.
Samuel Harris
Its meant as both. Its also given the ablility to use GBUs as a kind of roboric wild weasel.
If cheap enough, you could flood the skies with cheap hard to detect drones that are super disposable, while pilot based stealth aircraft are kept in reserve to make the harder decisions for targets.
Can anyone explain why it doesn't have a tail (for stealth?) and does this effect maneuverability, good or bad?
Ryan Watson
I'm no expert, but I assume that less surface area corresponds to less radar cross section.
Camden Howard
No, this is because daddy Lockheed spanked the DoD and made him buy his stuff. No major power has confronted each other in direct combat since world war 2 because of the nuclear deterrent.
Same reason we have 200 F 22s whizzing around the mainland, unable to engage in any overseas conflict without going to impractical lengths (aerial refilling and special hangars).
Isaiah Hill
>No major power has confronted each other in direct combat since world war 2 because of the nuclear deterrent. no, no major power has confronted another in direct combat since world war 2 because nobody was sure what exactly would set off a nuclear war.
modern countries aren't suffering from a shortage of reasons to go to war, it's just that simply invading is an escalation with unknown consequences. russia invading ukraine absolutely could have started a large war, but it didn't because russia was smart enough to set the stage for the invasion beforehand with espionage, propaganda, posturing, etc.
if things get to the point where china legitimately believes invading taiwan will be beneficial, taiwan will be invaded. mattis explaining his view on the tactical usage of nuclear weapons simply helps china, since it knows that there is a level it can escalate to that, although guaranteeing a nuclear exchange, won't result in a nuclear war.
oh and the missile defense systems aren't helping either. nor are the lasers.
Colton Rodriguez
US is following #1 China desu, piloted combat air vehicles are on the way out. Should have happened a decade ago but there were egos involved.
This to but to emphasize. The other worry isn't just that someone would go full mad, but that a tactical counter force strike might be mistaken as full counter value because of lack of communications from war damages.
Remember there has been numerous times when a station had picked up what seemed to be a full strike due to bugs, but thanks to cross verification, was recognized as not.
Now what do you think happens when said station sees an attack, but they are getting jammed or other radars are already down because of preemptive strikes to gain air superiority?

Pretty sure enclosed weapon pods weren't planned for the Raptor back then.
But who is the free market, Chinks or burgers? The US defense establishment is full of bureaucracy, central planning, and economic bottlenecks and rent seekers.
>believing commie propaganda Yea, no. Usa has nearly 5 times the yearly investment in defense that China does. That alone more or less debunks the China has the cutting edge of anything theory. China has always been all about talking big about their revolutionary tech that you hear about once, never see a demonstration of, and then suddenly it's gone forever and never talked about again. if China was so good at tech, how come they have ccp backed efforts to hack NATO and Usa defence contractors while sniffing for that juicy reverse engineerable tech. if China was so "ahead" why do they still need to import so much difficult to manufacture aircraft tech from Russia? Russia, a nation that not only the chineese outspend, but that the USAF alone outspends its entire defence budget? you're telling me that the notorious liers and propaganda spreaders from the ccp would never lie about being on the cutting edge of defence technology? that, despite all of the evidance showing how unlikely it is that the ccp has the resources to out innovate even the Russians, that somehow they've beat the us in the airpower cold war? yea sure, Cheng, whatever you say.
Brody Bell
>impractical lengths (aerial refilling...) I'll give you the hangar requirement (though it's not actually at all excessive, you want a secure hanger for your aircraft no matter what it is), but ferry flights with in flight refueling is completely standard for any nation which has the power to project force across oceans.

do you wanna know how I know you have no idea what you're talking about?
>Social democracy is a political, social and economic ideology that supports economic and social interventions to promote social justice within the framework of a liberal democratic polity and capitalist economy. The protocols and norms used to accomplish this involve a commitment to representative and participatory democracy; measures for income redistribution and regulation of the economy in the general interest; and welfare state provisions.[1][2][3] Social democracy thus aims to create the conditions for capitalism to lead to greater democratic, egalitarian and solidaristic outcomes.[4] Due to longstanding governance by Social Democratic parties and their influence on socioeconomic policy development in the Nordic countries, in policy circles "social democracy" has become associated with the Nordic model in the latter part of the 20th century.[5]

The velocity of a ch dollar spent on defense is much higher than in the US because everyone has to line thier pockets in the military industrial complex. China is pushing their capabilities forward.
Joshua Nguyen
Haha oh wow
Noah Phillips
>chingchongs actually believe their military industrial complex isn't corrupt to the max
less than the US because of far tighter enforced schedules, commissars with big hats and guns just right behind each and every engineer and actual feeling of mortal threat coming from the US driving the catch up efforts.
Jason Lewis
I guess you two are too retarded to think for yourselves. Did you just completely discount the fact that PLA spending composition isn’t identical to that of the US?
There really should be an IQ filter for this board.

Dominic Bailey
Tail-less designs have dramatically decreased RCS, especially for the VHF radars that are getting good at picking up on "normal" stealth planes
You end up with less yaw authority, of course. B-2 dealt with this with differential thrust from the engines; no idea what this single engine drone does

so you're implying that your commie design boards suck of 90% of the pla's annual budget? if that were true, which it isn't, you still wouldn't even hold a candle to the sheer commerce that flows through the r&d branches of the major us defence contractors. Not only is the USA the global economic hegemon, but defence r&d is conducted in a competitive market place, breeding the best possible results. But let's assume you're right, and the pla's spending on r&d surpasses the usa's. How much money would the rest of the pla have spend on manufacturing and modernization? which, btw, everyone knows the pla is struggleing with. let's assume your 200 man commie design board sucking up huge amounts of GDP did come up with quantum super technology on the cutting edge of possibility, leaving the rest of the world behind. guess what, you're left with no money to supply and implement these technologies because you cant match the consumer economy of the us and have to live entirely on exporting cheaply manufactured goods. this is why you're getting reamed in a trade war right now, Cheng. If the usa wanted, it could cripple your nation in a trade war that, while wounding the us, would destroy your nation. and likely topple the ccp in the process. guess you'll never get to invade Taiwan after all. Er, shit, I mean invade "yourself". enjoy your billions in tariffs :^)

Give the dictator everything and he will clean out corruption because corruption means people will be stealing HIS money.
Authoritarian single party states like Singapore, where corrupt officials get caned until their ass-cheeks bleed are literally corruption free.
Only wh*toids believe that by giving people more freedoms means that they become better. Humans are evil by nature and the best way to educate them and keep them disciplined is to have a muzzle pointed to the head of every single of them.

did you even read your own articles?
>Ghost Cities of China author Wade Shepard — who has been documenting the existence of ghost cities since he first stumbled across a sprawling vacant metropolis in 2006 — sees these cities as simply in a phase between construction and inhabitability.
>"A lot of these cities that got their start in 2000, 2003 — they are pretty much developed — if you go there now you will not know that they were a new city," Mr Shepard said, citing a number of examples including some of China's most economically viable cities.
>"If you look around, you will think this is a normal city and just assume this is the way it always was, not knowing that 10 years ago people were calling it a ghost city, 20 years ago it was just apartments and villages."
>Mr Shepard said the same kind of construction phase had been seen throughout global history when developed nations first expanded, just not on the same excessive scale as in China.
>"They build more than anybody else, more extensively than anybody else, and they have more of an extensive master plan than pretty much any power, empire or kingdom in history ever had," Mr Shepard said.
>Unlike many cities across the globe where populations constantly outgrow the infrastructure, leaving city planners to find new ways of dealing with traffic jams and demand for more construction space, China is usually one step ahead.
>As one Chinese city mayor said, it was like buying a suit a few sizes too big for a growing boy.
China just catches up far faster than any of you white subhumans. What you did in 100 years, China does in 10 years.
Cope with it.
Zachary Scott
did you see the other articles? one ghost city making a rebound (not really, they only filled a fraction of the city) the others are still there empty.
Ayden Watson
remember when russia BTFO chinkland so hard they reverted back to north korea days? they should do it again. china would never survive russia.
>>> later announces QX58 drone as a forward "wingman" with stealth and capable of super agility I said it on Jow Forums first, years ago: 7gen will be defined by networked manned + unmanned teams, turning each combat pilot into the equivalent of a flight leader except staying farther back
Oliver Brooks
China only has that tech because they were able to steal it. Guess who they stole from? We should be executing traitors in the most horrific way possible instead of pardoning them and letting them run for office.
