Well, manned CCA is kind of an oxymoron. The whole point of CCA is to have unmanned attritionable forward element to take all the risk for manned fighter. I do think there is a true CCA in the work not shown yet

Well to be fair, I think people are not appreciating just the human capital advantage that China has.
it’s an overcapacity in aerospace talent that is producing overcapacity in next generation aircraft. I think it will be interesting to see how America react because throwing money at the problem won’t solve it. Talking doesn’t solve problems. America has a structural disadvantage.
Good comparison here of CAC vs SAC attributes and I maintain that SAC is likely to have naval variant for carrier & 076.
You write that the J-36 is 26m long, but Jason's calculation puts it at only 22m. Is the 26m a typo, or did you find a mistake in his calculations?
I don’t know. This is what the person I am quoting is saying. He was the guy who had the original 3 engine sketch. We will find out I guess.
Without either a profile view or a *perfectly* 90 degree ventral or dorsal view there will always be some angular rotation that skews estimates, especially if your reference object isn’t rotated to the same degree. *Furthermore* if the reference object being used as a ruler isn’t sitting at the same distance from the camera as the object you’re trying to measure there will also be errors in relative scaling.
Can someone analyze authenticity of this pic?
It's a screenshot from the video which is definitely legit.
