Sorry, and I’m not sure if this is the correct place to post, but anyway …

I just found something strange and sadly no-one even in the German FlugzeugForum can help me.
Following the “bible” on Chinese Aviation so far (China Today: Aviation Industry) the first wind-tunnel was built in Shenyang in September 1965 located at the „Shenyang Aircraft Factory“. This one called FL-1– a copy oft he Soviet type AT-1 Windtunnels - … etc. …

Now, even if I’ve read this article several times before I noticed that in the „Fliegerkalender 2008” Mr Käsmann wrote an interesting article about China’s ambitious plans for a true high-speed/high-altitude interceptor, the Dong Feng 113.

Translated: ....test with models tested in the high-speed wind-tunnel HK-2 acquired via the German Democratic Republic promised even higher speeds to about Mach 2.4 ...

Does anyone have any more related information about that type of wind-tunnel and especially a possible Chinese-GDR-cooperation … which is completely new to me. ???

Many thanks in advance,
Deino
