China is trying to create level X-37В and Dream Chaser spacecrafts

30

US media believe that China is working to create an experimental lightweight reusable manned spacecraft, reports big5.xinhuanet.com today.

The Chinese ship has the designation "Tour Day" 1, and can be used as an "orbital bomber." It is reported that the apparatus was reset in unmanned mode, which ended in complete success. The United States believes that these works are carried out at a faster pace than previously thought. This ship can be very similar to the American Dream Chaser.

8 September 2011 of the Chinese media reported on the successful testing of the experimental spacecraft "Dragon" from the board of the H-6 bomber (resembled a reduced X-37В in appearance). The Americans believe that China has made significant progress in creating an analogue X-37В, but its orbital flight will not take place soon. China’s lag behind the US in space technology is at least 15 years.

It is believed that China is the only country in the world that is capable, after the United States, of creating devices like the X-37 and Dream Chaser.

According to en.wikipedia.org, the Dream Chaser spacecraft (photo and picture below) is being developed by Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) Space Systems and intended for suborbital and orbital flights (including the International Space Station), will take on board up to 7 astronauts. The spacecraft will be launched into orbit using an Atlas V PH and land in an airborne manner on ground runways. Length 9,0 m, wingspan 7,0 m, weight 11340 kg, duration of automatic low-orbit flight at least 210 days.

    Everything that was once invented by someone will be surely copied by the Chinese. The USA did not know about this ?!

      but somehow it’s not funny - if the amers say that they are only 15 years behind, is this not a cause for alarm, we made the first flight at 61 and they several years ago and already create something

      They didn't steal, the mattress mats "legally" got humps from the marked Judas, and the Chinese fumbled in their computers, and unfortunately not only "Spiral" was leaked ...

    Our Spiral ... An ancient development of the USSR. The Americans stole from us, the Chinese stole from the Americans. Now the Americans will be indignant that they have stolen the meanly that they honestly stole from us ...

    The word "trying" means that the Chinese have again stolen the drawings somewhere .. Well, the Chinese are rogues .. Laugh with laughter and sooner or later they will gain experience and create something and then everyone will not be laughing ..

      Laugh with laughter and sooner or later experience will be gathered and created something and then there will be no laughing matter ..

      To create something, one must be able to invent. Experience will certainly help here, but only for the implementation of the invented in iron. And China so far resembles a huge photocopier that copies everything it reaches.

        they simply don’t have time for such a scale of inventions. The Chinese have set themselves global goals. Now they’re not up to inventions. Here and in a row they copy everything that comes to hand, moreover, in huge quantities and at a fast pace.

      They march history poorly taught. Analogs of X-37, Dream, hyper sound and other interesting devices have already been created in the USSR. Give Russia some more time, and we will get to these projects.

      It is enough to watch the news on official TV so as not to ask such questions:
      1. Russia's economy "squatted" (C) GDP
      2. Education in Russia - in the pen
      3. science - in the same place
      4. corruption - no longer hide from justice

      Compare with China: for a bribe of 40 million - life. And we have Serdyukov riding a limo, and his ladies go to boutiques.

    The question is who has what, steal is secondary and not interesting! No one has canceled and will not cancel spying, no matter how many Soviets are washed, no one knows (one atomic bomb is worth what). The main thing is that they do, and do not fuck, inherited from the great ancestors. Great ancestors are not irony.

      The primary thing is how to use your own and others' ideas, which can now really be opposed by capitalist Russia, at least from what was or was created in the Soviet Union.

    Most likely they didn’t even try sad ... If we recall how the Chinese had almost everything necessary for the production of the Su-27, long before the conclusion of the contract for licensed production and its beginning, then such "irrelevant" for that period of development or research results were sold at ruble per bunch to all and sundry.

    sadly, but it's time to get used ... to a new place in the world, at least in our century

    China seems to be following the path of the USSR, but instead of using natural resources, it is using its population to spur. Another difference is that they have a lot of students studying all over the world and people work around the world in companies, there are places to study

    If the United States implements our development 40 years ago, then what we are developing now is that the Americans will begin in 40 years.
    So, what we have now developed can be safely implemented, they still will not catch up.

    The Chinese have begun to move quickly in technology ... and this is in the last 15-20 years !!! the worst thing is that their pace is accelerating exponentially !!! It would be necessary to slow them down somehow .. otherwise they will get everyone then. P .... duley grab with amers for the company :) :) :)

      So we probably merged the dead-end branch (we are not idiots).
      After all, the Yak-141 was also leaked at one time, and I must say very successfully (the program sucked out more than one billion).

    The fact that this is the famous "Spiral" is obvious. They stole the bastards, only with the power plant they have a bummer. As smart and learned men say, the installation that was put on "Spiral" is unique. There is still nothing of the kind in the world, just as there is no such complex of weapons that was planned to be installed on the Spiral.

    Personally, I am happy for the Chinese, well done, but the fact that technology is stolen is not their problem. Moreover, steal, you also need to realize what they do with success. We were in the 60s, let’s say so under a license from the Italians got Fiat, so what? Until now, we can’t make a competitive car even in a budget form, and the same Chinese drove 40 years ago, and now they are filling up the entire car market with their cars, which are similar in quality to the same Koreans.

    In the very near future, the Chinese will not succeed in creating an operating apparatus of this kind. They don’t have enough time for this. For here it is not enough to copy the outer contours and stick the Taiwanese stuffing into the giblets ...
    And one more interesting observation - now the entire space program of China is limited only to the launch of satellites. They even stopped launching their "highquanauts". There were talks about the orbital station, but they remained just talk. Although the station was started very, very modest. Even in comparison with the first "Salutes" ...
    Why so? .. It is difficult to suspect the Chinese people lack of money. So the whole point is in a lack of brains ... And according to this, the Chinese are even farther from the operating devices of the "Spiral" (or X-37B) class than the Bavarian burgher to Beijing ...

    They have already started creating their own little by little, and there will always be something to steal, and there will be sellers of technology.
    Well, about plagiarism so to speak, the state must fight this, our AK-47s are stamped without a license all over the world and that's all.
