@junshiguancha1 Why he got engines for power, wings for lift, tail fins for stability control, and cargo holds for loading goods. Why can't be same 😁.you are just with no logic and no credible argument. Lollllllll 😆

@PASU_MATRIX Also, the picture you posted is of a C-5 Galaxy transport aircraft, not a C-17; there is a huge difference between the two, you low-IQ moron.

🇨🇳 Y-20 vs 🇺🇸 C-17 Globemaster III -Crew: 3 | 3 -Payload: 66t | 77.5t -Troops: 300 | 134 -Max Speed: 900 | 830 km\h -Service Ceiling: 43,000 | 45,000 ft -MTOW: 220t | 265t -Range: 4,500 | 4,400 km Y-20 often called as a copy of C-17 due to its structural similarities.

Steel above, courage below.

IAF MiG-27 Bahadurs lined up with the Indian Navy's Tu-142M in the background.

IAF Squadron Shortage -Fighters: 29-31 operational | 42 required | Gap: 11-13 squadrons -AWACS: 5 operational | 15-18 needed | Gap: 10-13 aircraft -Tankers; 6 operational | 12-18 needed | Gap: 6-12 aircraft Airpower is built through planning, not promises.

@junshiguancha1 the issue was whether the Y-20 is commonly perceived as resembling the C-17, not whether transport aircraft need engines to function. Next time, try addressing what was actually said instead of arguing with the version you invented in your head.

@PASU_MATRIX You Low-IQ idiot Their structures are similar because they are both transport aircraft, requiring engines for power, wings for lift, tail fins for stability control, and cargo holds for loading goods.🤣

@junshiguancha1 I said it's often called a copy due to structural similarities, and many Americans make that claim. If you can't distinguish between reporting a perception and endorsing it, don't lecture others about IQ.

@PASU_MATRIX You low-IQ idiots! The US isn't the only country with transport aircraft; China previously purchased Russian Il-76 transport aircraft, and we also borrowed some design elements from that platform. not C-17

If selected, the KC-390 could become the first foreign military transport aircraft manufactured in India. 🇧🇷 Brazil's Embraer says Indian engineers would train in Brazil while local production and MRO capabilities are built in India. Beyond aircraft, this is a transfer of tech.

China's military satellite network drives global ISR, navigation and command reach with continuous space coverage. 🇨🇳China: 100+ (Yaogan, Gaofen, Beidou, Tianlian) 🇮🇳India: 10–20 (Cartosat, RISAT, GSAT-7, NavIC) India stays focused on regional security, not global coverage.

@morterlier 2007 is the official program launch. I used 2002 for early requirement and concept work before that. They're just different phases, not the same start points.

@PASU_MATRIX 完全不对，j20是从二零零七年开始研发的。

5th-Gen Fighter Development Timelines 🇺🇸 F-22: 19 years (1986–2005) 🇨🇳 J-20: 15 years (2002–2017) 🇷🇺 Su-57: 18 years (2002–2020) 🇮🇳 AMCA: 8–9 years proposed (2026–2035) 8-9 years of AMCA induction timeline looks ambitious with no prototype and without an indigenous engine.

Utility helicopters are the backbone of battlefield mobility, moving troops, supplies and casualties where roads can't reach. 🇨🇳China: 500-650 (Z-20, Z-9, Z-8/Z-18, Mi-17) 🇮🇳India: 550-600 (Dhruv, Mi-17 family, Cheetah, Chetak, LUH) India relies on helicopters for logistics.

|🇮🇳 Indian 7 PARA SF operators|

Designed for civilian transport, eVTOLs are being developed across 🇨🇳China, the 🇺🇸U.S, and Europe. While it is not made for combat, their vertical mobility, quieter operation, and autonomous potential could make them effective in the future military logistics and rescue missions.

China jet engine development: 1950s licensed turbofans ➡️ 1980s indigenous WS-6 experiments ➡️ 1990s redesign of core modules (compressor, combustor, turbine) ➡️ 2000s WS-10 operational deployment in masses➡️ ongoing WS-15 high-thrust development for next-gen fighters like j-20.

jet engine development is a long process that is shaped by materials science, turbine design, and testing cycles across decades of time. 🇨🇳China's path follows this same industrial logic, but with its own scaling approach. How did China develop engines over time? 🧵2⃣⤵️

IAF faces shrinking squadron strength as older MiG-21/29, Mirage 2000, Jaguar fleets age out. Indigenous fighter exists, yet numbers remain low and new jets are produced slow. If demand is urgent, why is production is not scaling fast enough despite the need of 200+ jet in IAF?

Tejas Mk1 India's indigenous LCA project. 1983 program start, 2001 first flight, 2010 production begins, 2013 IOC, 2016 squadron induction, 2019 FOC. Order 40 jets/38 delivered. Bigger future on paper, limited scale in reality. what was the real target? 🧵2⃣⤵️

@PASU_MATRIX You are contrasting two distinct assets from the same air force, each designed for specific strategic requirements.

In the era of stealth fighters and AI drones, the PLA still operates gyrocopters. Why? They're cheap, easy to maintain, useful for pilot training, and effective for low-altitude border patrol and reconnaissance. Having speeds around 160 km/h & can fly up to 4 hours with 2 crew.
