    Army The T-629 attack helicopter is an option instead of the T-129 Attack for the Pakistani Army?

    Well they are already testing what they have built so far. A turboshaft is generally a more forgiving project to start with core-wise (things like centrifugal compressors rather than axial)...and there are generally lot more companies out there willing to sell you IP and work with you on it...

    Its the ultimate irony.....they essentially indulge heavily in the racism that they claim to be countering....by affirming people of colour (or whatever minority, that seems to grow as the intersectional mob concept expands into LGBTQABCXYZ" oppressism well past just race) need much more than...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    TF-X I believe is air superiority first, thus needs maximum performance profile available in the mach 2+ environment. DSI can face certain compromises in this environment as it is not variable geometry. It is matter of pros and cons....of what you want in the design profile, dependent on your...

    TR Space Space Programs

    It seems TUA is the national space agency. Then these two (Rokestan and Delta V) are the tech developers for the agency. ROKETSAN owners are SOEs....so they can leverage from the RnD base in those (and roketsan itself) already like they already have with the sounding rocket tests. So I would...

    China extends lead over U.S. in global patents filings, Huawei global top filer for 4 consecutive year, U.N. says

    That's true. I did start with saying the progress here is commendable.....just 8 years ago China was about at grant level India is at now (internationally)....and the ROI (per patent grant) seems to be about the same for both. So the road is long in this sector. But China govt will need to...

    China extends lead over U.S. in global patents filings, Huawei global top filer for 4 consecutive year, U.N. says

    The progress by China here is commendable, but it requires some context (qualitatively) too. There's the actual quality/relevance of the patents....an altogether different matter past raw numbers. Not to mention how many actually get granted in the end (compared to filed)...

    Army The T-629 attack helicopter is an option instead of the T-129 Attack for the Pakistani Army?

    Yah makes perfect sense for them. Indeed. Aptly put. I would say Pakistan is fiscally poor precisely because of what you mention. A long topic to cover just by itself, its come up a bunch of times in this forum.

    Well it just becomes even faster (in getting older) than say 2.5 or 3....but same thing (median age increase) happens at any X number as long as its lower than a period before (say when it was 4, 5 ,6 per women etc). What matters is what is the change in fertility rate over period of time...
