This is nonsense I recognized it immediately when it claimed the J-20 only supercruises at 1.3 mach Anyone with a engineering degree understands that fighter jets carry a significant amount of fuel. The J-20 in particular carries 26,000 lbs of fuel while the F-22 carries 18,000 lbs of fuel Now here is where the disinformation comes in he cites the F-22 as mach 1.8 supercruise J-20 as mach 1.3 supercruise But the actual numbers are F-22 is mach 1.5 at full fuel load F-22 is mach 1.82 only when it is nearly empty The J-20 is mach 1.3 at full fuel load mach 1.8 only when it is nearly empty Choosing the J-20 number at full fuel load, and choosing the F-22 supercruise speed when it is nearly empty is deliberate disinformation. Your substack has lost all credibility. | ||
