If you spat on the Presidents shoes they'd declare war, especially if they don't approve of your government.

What about a shoe?

I'm sure they declared war on that guy.

Probably have the CIA watching his house, in case he tries to commit more acts of unprovoked shoe-throwing attempts on the President.

The difference is Cuba actually tried to change when I brought these issues up with him. You just keep arguing and arguing.


Why don't, instead of spamming "OMG your so wrong becasue XYZ is impossible", you present me with ALTERNATIVES that you would be happy with. I attempt to make a copy of the Eurofighter, I'm told that's impossible because for whatever reason the evaluation aircraft would have disapeared. I attempt to do the same with the Gripen, and I'm told such a timescale is impossible.

At no point did Minny or the OP go, well, sure but a more acceptable timeframe would be X, or yes, but the concequences would be Y.

So what have I to go on but arguements when there are no alternatives?

If you want to build a new fighter it's your responsibility to do the research to see how long it would take.
And clearly based on you "6 months to production model" you didn't do that research but just made up a number that would get you the plane soon.

Look at the timeframes used for this article

Given, it's not a perfect analogy since in your case your trying to develop a Gripen. But still it gives a good sense of scale for the development time it takes to develop a new fighter. Years.

1. The force had plenty of time (assuming the argument would happen for a couple weeks) to deploy. At most, they had a week.
2. I haven't been monitoring Cuba, so I agree that his seems highly suspect, but not impossible. It would take years to master nuclear enrichment anyways.
3. I thought this was because you isolated yourself from major fighter producers.
4. Even if you could, it would take YEARS to develop a highly advanced jet's technology and train.

And additionally, OP said you need to adjust the timescale.

China's not even close to finishing their shit. They're lagging behind in the engine sector.

That's the same problem Brazil would have. Even if they had an entire air frame to work with, they have no experience in avionics or engines. Those jobs are almost always outsourced to Western nations.

So a six month period isn't realisitc. What is? As I've said, I'm not reinventing the wheel, just reproducing an existing design, and you can hardly draw a comparison between reproducing an existing design and developing something utterly new, can you?
