Re: price tag for Javelin ATGM
I was trained in Milan and Spike. Milan cost about 50k whereas Spike I heard cost about 150k, but that was in the 90s. The firing post could easily cost more than $1m.

advantage and disadvantage: DSI airlet vs. CARTE airlet
why do F-22,F-18C adapted CARTE airtiake ,while F-35 uses DSI inlet.
what is the advantage and disadvantage DSI and CARTE?
Gents once again do not start a thread to ask a question..

Please Help Answer THis Question About The Norinco Mak-90(type-56 ak47 semi auto)
Hello guys, I have a question regarding the Chinese type -56 ak47, which is the Norinco Mak-90 sporter imported into the US before the Ban in 1993. I am wondering how many shots can the Mak-90/56 shoot before it start to lose its accuracy over an effective range? thank you and please provide source for your answers if possible! thank you

Re: advantage and disadvantage: DSI airlet vs. CARTE airlet
CARTE intakes are used in aircraft not designed for speeds much higher than Mach 2 (air pressure problems past Mach 2) and thus they are more simpler than the ramps present in Concordes and Eagles. They essentially let excess air "bleed" out the side. DSIs are a bump in the fuselage and diverts the low velocity air (due to boundary layer against the fuselage.) away from the air intake. These two intake types operate over similar range of airspeeds and conditions. (Any faster and you pretty much need to go back to the ramp.)
The DSI is in general a much better design because a bump is easier to maintain than a bunch of bleed-gates. Why did F-18 and 22 have CARTE? Because the JSF is new....! DSI testing didn't really come along until 1996 in America.

VT1 is a version of MBT-2000 - MBT2000 is a modular tank design/system, able to change into whatever the customer wants.
Re: Does China has clone copy of Tor M1 missile?
what do you mean by clone? the question is, do the Chinese need to clone anything today? at the worst, it is a Chinese copy with Chinese improvements.

It was used on Vanguard-2010 drill and is only refferd as "new type of missile".
Thanks
