Phantom88 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Why didn't they just buy some slightly used C-17's give them a new paint job and save themselves a whole lot of trouble? Patrick
4c Hajduk Veljko Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Why didn't they just buy some slightly used C-17's give them a new paint job and save themselves a whole lot of trouble?Because, this way, they created thousands of new jobs. And because they have technology, financial and human resources to do it.

Jona33 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Their designers must be the same as porsche's. :D Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing
joey45 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Why change something that works. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

EtherealN Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Why change something that works. And also, don't make the mistake of equating the exterior of an aircraft with "copy". Having copied the configuration means only just that - you've copied the configuration - you still have most of the development work ahead of you. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Daniel "EtherealN" Agorander | Даниэль "эфирныйн" Агорандер Intel i7 2600K @ 4.4GHz, ASUS Sabertooth P67, 8GB Corsair Vengeance @ 1600MHz, ASUS GTX 560Ti DirectCU II 1GB, Samsung 830series 512GB SSD, Corsair AX850w, two BENQ screens and TM HOTAS Warthog DCS: A-10C Warthog FAQ | DCS: P-51D FAQ | Remember to read the Forum Rules | | | Life of a Game Tester

Phantom88 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 ****FLASH NEWS**** China has "Created" a new special Hamburger called "The Big Wong"The Country couldn't be happier with their Ultra "ORIGINAL"Design!!!!! 1 Patrick
blackbelter Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 ****News Flash**** China has not only copied American C-17, but also IL-76, C-2, C-5, because the Chinese aircraft has also two wings, a few engines under the wings, and a tail with two wings! I bet they also copied the interior of those foreign planes, because it probably has some place for humans and other empty space for cargos! What a copycat is that! And what a genius am I, figuring all these out from just a few pictures! 1

Pilotasso Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) I wonder what engines it has? Probably rolls royce copies since there are rolls royce subsidiaries in china building the original items. EDIT: Looking at the clearer footage above it looks like they are using russian engines in them (at least for now). Edited January 26, 2013 by Pilotasso .

My humble apologies if I've offended you,I'm sure that the similarities with the C-17 are strictly coincidental.How thoughtless of me to think China would want to copy anything so inferior when they have their own cutting edge Aeronautical design:doh: 1 Patrick

karambiatos Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) TBH, they may or may not be copies, but more than half of the worlds militaries can only dream of having a budget to create such "copies" also its smart spending, to just use a proven concept then to throw bucket loads of money at it just for the sake of originality, especially when its not a beauty contest.

Yurgon Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Why didn't they just buy some slightly used C-17's give them a new paint job and save themselves a whole lot of trouble? And who says they didn't? :D 1
159th_Viper Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 also its smart spending, to just use a proven concept then to though bucket loads of money just for the sake of originality, when at the end of the day, especially when its not a beauty contest.

Weta43 Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) Did you show us this pic to show the obvious - that similar tasks often lead to simillar design: Mother nature proving the same thing... A cat being a dog : A marsupial being a dog: A dog being a dog :-) (Just as well none of those animals came from China, or someone would have accused them of doing a direct copy...)

EtherealN Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) Yeah... Copies everywhere... All they did was rip off :D It's like in the good old days when some people accused the MiG-25 of being an F-15 copy. :D Edited January 27, 2013 by EtherealN [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Daniel "EtherealN" Agorander | Даниэль "эфирныйн" Агорандер Intel i7 2600K @ 4.4GHz, ASUS Sabertooth P67, 8GB Corsair Vengeance @ 1600MHz, ASUS GTX 560Ti DirectCU II 1GB, Samsung 830series 512GB SSD, Corsair AX850w, two BENQ screens and TM HOTAS Warthog DCS: A-10C Warthog FAQ | DCS: P-51D FAQ | Remember to read the Forum Rules | | | Life of a Game Tester
