(Not-So-)Short thread on the ACAE CJ1000A, the supposed LEAP-analogous from China ✈️
Currently, the most dominant narrative on the CJ1000A vs the LEAP-1C that it has a worse TSFC. But is that *actually* the case *now*? Let's find out: 🧵↓

I hate comparing years, it makes no sense really. But, in 2024:
- They had the most power and were the second lightest car.
- The race was ran behind SC for 3h iirc, probably over 50 laps less distance covered than this year.

Ho chiesto ai miei amici di spiegarmi perché Genesis a #LeMans24 è andata bene e loro:
- Meno 1" dalla pole
- Più veloci di Peugeot
- Traguardo finale
Ho poi aggiunto: Lamborghini ha fatto di meglio nel 2024, perché ai tempi non è stata elogiata?
Nessuno mi ha risposto.

🇺🇸 IMSA EFFORT? @HighClassRacing could take its new partnership with Isotta Fraschini into the @FIAWEC and/or the @IMSA according to team principal Anders Fjordbach, who's been surprised by the 'huge interest' from drivers.

Built to win. The hybrid Porsche 963 conquered IMSA, claimed a WEC title, and came within 14 seconds of delivering Porsche's 20th overall 24 Hours of Le Mans victory. Continue the prototype fight in the '24 Porsche 963 with the free Update 1.70. #GT7

Once, while sitting in a GP clinic, I overheard a baby say “goo goo ga ga”, and the mother reply: “Well. That’s very stereotypical of you.”

A lot of people (particularly from a certain South Asian country) sure do conflate HMCS and HMDs quite a lot
I'm not talking about HMD which is available in any std 4th gen Aircraft now days. See HMDS of F-35 it is a tailor made solution to work with DAS

Le Mans, ten years apart.
In 2016, Hugues de Chaunac watched in tears as the leading Toyota stopped with only three minutes remaining.
In 2026, the tears inside the Toyota garage meant victory.

😱 TOYOTA'S SENSOR SCARE: Kamui Kobayashi has revealed the @24hoursoflemans-winning Toyota went into “safe mode” for a portion of the race due to a driveshaft torque sensor problem, which led to the No. 7 crew “giving up” on victory at one stage.

"Several of the fans were shouting to me 'don't forget who you are,' and that really resonated with me."
Lewis Hamilton thanked the fans after his first Ferrari Grand Prix win.

I feel like I shouldn’t be surprised after how good he’s been this year but to be this quick on your lmp2 debut, on your first appearance at the track against an insanely stacked lmp2 grid… I’m just in awe
We NEED to see Laurin Heinrich in a Porsche Hypercar at Le Mans

Updated estimate based on tracking by yours truly and Deino ;)
Includes serially confirmed 14 ABs and 3 TBs but doesn't include rumoured ABs which are receiving vanilla J20 from those who got J-20A/S or 3rd/4th gen units receiving their J20s.
All ABs are catalogued in profile.

It’s interesting to see how IAF’s rejection on theaterization has become a spat between Indian Army veterans (or adjacent) vs IAF veterans (or adjacent).
As a commentator somewhat familiar with Indian defense matters, I can more and more understand IAF’s reluctance due to the fact, and which is clearly stated by IAF senior leadership that the IAF today lacks the mass to be split and still able to operate somewhat independently under each theatre command.
And why this was not really a concern (presumably) for the PLAAF. The PLAAF never lacked mass. The PLAAF today, ironically, is at the its smallest size since the 1960s.
