- adventured 11y agoNo, they're claiming that Lockheed is lying about the efficiency gains their technology can or will produce. Specifically that Lockheed's claims are impossible (that assumes the referenced theoretical calculations on energy requirements are correct in the first place).
- perlgeek 11y agoI think the point is that if you're a factor 2 or 4 away from the theoretical optimal efficiency, you can't make it a factor 100 easier, as this article claims. The best you can do is to reach the theoretical optimum.
