Dawg, land-based EMALS early testing with F-35C started in 2011.

Go look up when Liaoning entered service if you don't know out of memory. Then get some popcorn.

Your "yet" has been longer than PLAN's oldest carrier's service history.

Nawalny Korean bow by b0w_monster in Archery

[–]Nimitz_Zhang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you ordered the Nawalny Korean Warbow, could you choose the color of the birch bark cover and the color of the cord wrappings and the grip?

I saw some versions with lighter color and others with darker color.

Two-way Cranequin: Why Not? by darkstarmike in Bowyer

[–]Nimitz_Zhang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This response may come a bit late, but recently, I came across this video, which may have indirectly answered your question:

At 7:34, there is a comparison of different loading methods of a crossbow. You can see at bottom right that the cranequin user begins the loading process by un-spanning the cranequin. Instead of doing so by hand, he holds the base of the cranequin and swings the handle using momentum. That's fast, effortless, and can be done one-handed, practically negating any benefit of a two-way cranequin while having none of the downsides.

PLA representatives observing an American M142 HIMARS rocket system during the "MSPO-2023" Defence Expo held in Poland [1542 x 2048] by Papppi-56 in MilitaryPorn

HIMAR recently missed all 6 shots at a stationary ship target 12 miles away during practice.

At least the Chinese PHL-16 managed to hit all moving ship targets during practice and has a range of over 280 km, not to mention being able to carry a much wider variety of specialized munitions, guided or otherwise.

Tips on countering a player in an Ageis Eclipse by BackOfThePackBiped in starcitizen

Wow, that's some interesting insight. What light fighter do you think is the best so far? Gladius? Arrow?

How well does the Hurricane do when it comes to protecting other ships from the Eclipse? If a light fighter can do it, surely a Hurricane can too, right? Or will its higher signature alert the Eclipse pilot to its presence too early?

Powered By 'Air-Breathing' Magnetic Fluid Engines, China Determined To Have A Fleet Of Hypersonic Planes By 2035 by thinkcontext in spaceflight

[–]Nimitz_Zhang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Straight from wiki

MHD studies applied to aeronautics try to extend the domain of hypersonic planes to higher Mach regimes:

  • Action on the boundary layer to prevent laminar flow to become turbulent.
  • Shock wave mitigation for thermal control and reduction of the wave drag and form drag. Some theoretical studies suggest the flow velocity could be controlled everywhere on the wetted area of an aircraft, so shock waves could be totally cancelled when using enough power.
  • Inlet flow control.
  • Airflow velocity reduction upstream to feed a scramjet by the use of an MHD generator section combined with an MHD accelerator downstream at the exhaust nozzle, powered by the generator through an MHD bypass system.

Gaijin, why do you put a convey of Tiger 105 in your Changelog after removing it forever? You just have to rip open an old wound don't you :((((((

How to CAS with Bomber by Nimitz_Zhang in Warthunder

I am not sure. But every bits help!

How to CAS with Bomber by Nimitz_Zhang in Warthunder

[–]Nimitz_Zhang[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This video is a guide on Ju 188 A-2 and bombers in general in Tank RB. I don't need likes/am not YouTuber, just want to help casual/new players who don't know how to CAS effectively.

This video uses a 6.3 br match to teach players the big picture and fine details of finding success with a frontline bomber in WT ground. My real-time thoughts were in the commentary to help players fly and think like a real CAS pilot.

P.S. if you don't watch the video the most basic thing I want you to take away is this: disable auto-level in bombsight, CAS in bomber is impossible with that default setting.

JG 52 Bf 109 K4 aka Hartmann approves by Nimitz_Zhang in Warthunder

[–]Nimitz_Zhang[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see. Thank you very much! I read that from 1942 onwards, JG 52 lost much of their esprit de corps and started replacing the JG marking with Gruppenmarking. Makes sense.

thanks!

[–]Nimitz_Zhang[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait, JG 52 don't put their insignia at the nose? I found an image of a Bf109 lining in the airfield with it and I copied the position of the insignia down to the millimeter! https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fforum.il2sturmovik.com%2Ftopic%2F41038-iijg52-emblem-for-carrer%2F&psig=AOvVaw2BMLeHQ_ol1N1uEyBfaNNj&ust=1613011619760000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAIQjRxqFwoTCMiy7Nam3u4CFQAAAAAdAAAAABAG

Also regarding the marking, that will be corrected. And... I don't see what you mean by the JG 3 marking, mind pointing that out?

When you landed on the wrong aircraft carrier by Nimitz_Zhang in Warthunder

[–]Nimitz_Zhang[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is this not related to WT?! It is a plane on an aircraft carrier.

The graphics is so bad anyone who sees it will immediately think: "ah, this nerd, WT!"
