lol Damo with all the money everyones pumped into the JSF there's no turning back now! People mock the JSF but wait until all the bugs are ironed out, I think most people will be impressed with its capabilities.

Looks like an F22 Raptor copy. Can't they do anything original?

Looks so similar to an F-22 Raptor.....Didnt they hack the blueprints for it years ago?
What the U.S should do is design something that has epic design faults and let them steal the master plan. ....but the faults only show at mach 3 above 50,000 feet, then all debris gets blasted into Saturn`s Ice Belt. |

Give the Chinese a/f another 10 years & they will be probably pretty close quality wise. Their engines are not quite there yet. F -22 with another 10 years r&d will comfortably keep its advantage though.
cheers, Maka

Even our gas sales to China will go south soon I think if reports are correct.

Does this mean we could perhaps rezone and develop the Dandenong Valley Park-lands into Glen Waverly airport?
I see no usable land in Balwyn nor rail in Doncaster. And we really need to encourage foreign investment of these enemy fighter jets into the Glen Waverly region. Otherwise the lack of Chinese national security will stagnate foreign investment growth which according to Joe Hockey is the last thing we want to be doing with the mining boom coming to an end. What's more important. National security or the current property boom? I would've thought the answer here's obvious. We need foreign investment, that way the oldies cash in big off foreigners and in turn inflate the market, forcing their grandchildren to supplement the debt of foreigners for the ones who don't have trusts. It's great honestly.

Stolen F35 plans with some adaptations. Hopefully it will be built with the same crappy metal parts that they sell to the west and fall apart in-flight.
The Chinese have churned out a lot of military hardware over the past 24 months. This is becoming another arms race and leads to one thing. The yanks are investing in new generation high tech robotics, where as the Chinese will use manpower (they have a lot of that). |

I'm not kidding when I say the yanks have silent black triangles that defy gravity (...with colored lights all around them lol).
I'm starting to believe we've had gravity disruption since the nazi days (it can be traced back to tesla before aliens) http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0325232140.htm What a waste of money and infastructure. 1 flying triangle would **** up an entire airforce. **** robots!
