Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general)
English term or phrase: fly-basis
Помогите перевести предложение, пожалуйста, - The latter two aircraft are at least 40% titanium by weight (fly-basis) with buy-weight 5-10 times this number.

отрывок:
In 2009, the Chinese government ordered a strategic stockpile of 15,000 tonnes of ingot and 10,000 tonnes of sponge be built, primarily from domestic supply. In December 2010, the Chinese military unveiled its domestically produced J-20 Black Eagle stealth 'fifth-generation' fighter aircraft. The J-20 is reportedly larger than the US-produced F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Joint-Strike Fighter. The latter two aircraft are at least 40% titanium by weight (fly-basis) with buy-weight 5-10 times this number.

Explanation:
1. Следует рассматривать фразу "at least 40% titanium by weight (fly-basis)", переводя ее примерно так:
"титан составляет как минимум 40 процентов от массы планера".
2. Но это неточно в том смысле, что относится только к F-22. Как бы это уже не проблема перевода.

  -> Спасибо.
disagree  Yurii Hrebonkin: Словосочетание fly-basis невозможно понять иначе, как "полетная конфигурация". На мой взгляд перевод этого куска текста должен выглядеть: ... состоят по крайней мере на 40% полетной массы из титана..."

  -> Ход Вашей мысли понятен. Однако странно включать в разговор массу топлива, не находите? Спасибо. Вопрос 2012 года.
