International Defence Exhibition and Seminar (IDEAS)

Grant me a little thread tangent on ram/scramjet development.
1. Physics too poorly understood for reliable computational simulations
2. Therefore, experiments only way: Flight tests or windtunnels.
2a. Flight tests are stupid expensive - launch a rocket everytime you want to do a test - get 30 seconds of data.
2b. Windtunnels are VERY specialized and expensive to develop. Working gas is too dissimilar, or test section too small. Most reliable way is rails+rocket or somekind of cannon. US DoD is funding such a startup for this very reason.
3. Little to no published info on these things - all data gathered is guarded closely since it is so expensive to get and so strategically important.

So to expect our poor old SPD orgs to do this kind of development is not realistic. Just my two cents.

Hence the shorter route of license production and absorbing the tech from YJ12E, instead of doing it from scratch. If it’s possible.

Oh, how lively this thread was just a few days ago! But now that the expo has started, it's like everyone took a vow of silence. Surely, you're not all too busy to share some pictures?

Absence of adequate R&D can only get them so far. A strange mindset that prevails for whatever reason. Results are visible bottlenecks among DnD of innovative cutting edge tech.

Thunders guarding the city landing gear deployed is a welcome sight though.

No sign of VIPER IFV? The project has been on limbo for so long.

True, VN22 does, but which variant, and how many are we getting?

So now our helos and large drones can become strike platforms.

All the talk about Azb reminded me of Rasoob from the old MODP report. Do we finally have any idea what it was?

Damn looks like its a stealthy ALCM

This on the other hand is Spanish mortar
