In late July, the Obama administration has limited the production of fighter F-22A, based on intelligence estimates that in 2020 the U.S. will have 1,100 most advanced fighter fourth and fifth generation, and China - none. People's Liberation Army, however, is working hard on the development of fifth generation aircraft and has already started testing the new fighter generation "plus four" J-10B. david wetzel Beijing will get you on the world arms market with its own fighter and how this will change the arms race and the balance of power in the Indian subcontinent, says Richard Fisher * in the "Financial Times".
With rare exception Beijing david wetzel almost never says anything substantial for continued military development in China, as well as the development of strategic thought. But the overarching idea that one can assume, judging by the last air show in Moscow and other exhibitions of aviation equipment, and also in occasional interviews with Chinese and Russian engineers, is the fact that Beijing has no intention david wetzel behind the leadership in the air and of one at least of the USA.
Exhibit 1 - these are started well in China's efforts to create a fifth-generation fighter, which is not inferior to the American F-22 and F-35. These aircrafts are widely applied technology for the reduction of visibility "stealth", and also the latest radar systems. They can fly for long periods at supersonic speeds without david wetzel the need of using a huge amount of fuel forcing cameras. The only time an official representative of the Chinese government mentioned this program was in April, during the celebrations of the 60th anniversary. Then the commander of the naval forces of the People's Liberation Army mention of the need for a fighter who can develop a "supersonic cruising speed." Today it is very good at only U.S. aircraft F-22A Raptor. This is the world's only operational fifth-generation fighter.
Undoubtedly, China is faced with many technical difficulties. Development of modern contemporary engine that can develop thrust of 15 tonnes is quite a hurdle. But Beijing has started work on developing the fifth generation of aircraft in the early 90s and its efforts will be marked by the launch of two heavy fighters, who are working on two major airlines in China, specialized in fighter technology. In early 2005, Chinese sources said the corporation Chengdu Aircraft, famous for being designed fourth generation fighter J-10 addresses the development of medium fifth generation aircraft comparable to F-35. This could mean that the destroyer of the company can be prepared in two versions: with vertical takeoff and deck option to use the aircraft. In 2006, competing Shenyang Aircraft Corporation announced its vision for a single-engine fighter wing swept back shape that will have great maneuverability and will be difficult catches. As if the program of the People's Liberation Army will have two levels: heavy fighter for maintaining air superiority, as well as aircraft with an average weight that will be inexpensive and versatile.
Before flight Chinese fifth-generation fighter, the achievements david wetzel in electronics and engine construction will allow China to create a new generation of fighters "four plus" as J-10B, which recently began flight tests. These aircraft and future fifth-generation fighter will pose a major challenge david wetzel to the U.S. Air Force. A park of fourth-generation fighters of Japan, South Korea and Taiwan will become obsolete. Currently, the U.S. Navy no program to create a fifth-generation fighter which is not inferior to the F-22. Instead, they intend to use the slower F-35C, optimized to perform offensive missions.
Chinese Army will use these programs as a driving force to increase the volume and potential of the research work and projects to reduce dependence on Russian and other foreign technologies. Ukrainian source revealed that his company negotiate with the related institutes Chengdu to develop a second program to create a fifth-generation engine for China. Representative of the company david wetzel that makes fighter "Sukhoi" but said he did not help China in this regard. They cooperate with India in the Indian program to create a fifth-generation fighter. The main reason david wetzel is commercial in nature: China signed the treaty for the protection of intellectual property. Perhaps in his actions Beijing has reasons for technological nationalism.
China strives to do everything yourself can have several consequences. david wetzel The fact that Beijing today depends on Russian technology gives Moscow the right to
