UK reportedly plans its own satellite navigation system

[Angel Eyes]

Britain hasn't tried since around the time the microchip went into operation. You're still using foreign jet engines for your 'indigenous' fighter. Jet engines that we invented 80 years ago. And as I remarked to M Khan, it's very strange that you somehow developed space launch vehicles before jet engines, very strange indeed.

Kaveri engine will be operational before 2020 and f 404 was built in 1978 not "80 years ago".

Yes, but the UK invented gas turbine jet engines 80 years ago. Welcome to the 1930s.

Yes, Britain has always been at the forefront in jet engine technology ,but we will have our jet engine and a 5th gen fighter before Britain will have its first full scale satellite launch.

You will have a fully indigenous 5th gen stealth fighter, equivalent to an F-22, before the UK launches a HLV? Bet taken.

Maybe somewhat inferior to f 22 but 2021 is the timeline.

How inferior are we talking? Su-57 knock-off inferior, Rafale, or worse. And you better not be talking about that FGFA POS as a 5th gen.

Consider it a stealthy rafale.

Consider it as comparable to F35 in stealth but smaller in size. It won't be as good as F22.

Consider it a stealthy rafale.

There is nothing called stealthy rafale.

Pffft. I thought you said 5th gen.

 

[zebra7]

Pffft. I thought you said 5th gen.

There is nothing Stealth and Stealth alone dosen't make 5th Gen and there is a difference between 5th Generation and 5th Generation warfare capable.

 

[Angel Eyes]

Pffft. I thought you said 5th gen.

So, an aircraft with similar rcs to a f 35 and performance similar to rafale is not 5th gen??

It will not have the RCS of an F-35 or the avionics.

A Tejas is equivalent to a firework.

British launcher is equivalent to a paperplane. Oops even a paper plane can fly, but your launcher can't.

UK launching an HLV ? What's the timeline, 2080?

 

[Amal]

Britain hasn't tried since around the time the microchip went into operation.

And we haven't tried with jet engines. Same logic.

I have no respect for those who copy.

CE-20 - Wikipedia

Something you can't & won't develop in decades. Now show respect.

True they did. But clearly what they then did was massively beyond the V-2. The US landed on the moon in 1969 and the USSR landed a probe on Mars in 1970. So India copied something way more advanced in the 1990s.

Again what was it that India copied?

You claim that India copied Soviet designs but again failed to come up with the name of a single Soviet launcher with very large solid boosters. What a fail.

So you tried with space launch vehicles before jet engines LOL. Right...... You China'd it.

Not developed yet. I could point to the SABRE development.

If we try we'll develop it inside 1 decade.

Cryo-engines from the Russians. That's the difference between the British efforts and Indian efforts. Britain started from scratch in the '60s, India started by buying Russian rockets.

2030.

Except it did and we didn't need to buy foreign tech first like all Indian and Chinese efforts.

Our choices.

And have a good cry about India developing it's own launchers...

Not developed yet. I could point to the SABRE development.

More paper rockets. Show something which exist as a viable prototype.

If we try we'll develop it inside 1 decade.

Another ''will''. From now on you'll be known as Mr. Will.

It's Cryogenic engine developed in India & it will stay so no matter how much you whine here.

Britain have nothing to show in this field. Think about that before pointing fingers at us.

You don't even have a design to show & this is what you say ?

Losers. Brits.

2030.

It will take Airbus Diagram & ULA 7 years to develop Ariane 6 & Vulcan respectively, but British would only take 10 years to go from ZERO to HLV ?

Big talk from a country which is nothing but a big zero in space launchers.
