While equipped with the 歼-20, a heavy-duty fifth-generation stealth fighter, the debate about the Chinese Air Force’s need for a “medium-sized fifth-generation fighter” (formerly known as the S4) or a more cost-effective “small five” has been ongoing, FC -31 "鹘鹰" as the "Sino-Five" ready-made shelf products, let the military fans bother and the opposite side, but as the overall research and development unit of the 歼-20, the aviation industry Chengdu has taken a different approach and intends to sell invisible to Pakistan. "Jilong", this also provides a new direction for the Chinese Air Force's new cheap version of the fifth-generation machine.

A few days ago, some netizens released models that were suspected of invisible "枭龙". Surprisingly, they actually have two configurations. One of the configurations was previously disclosed, code-named JF20, which is a five-generation machine with a normal layout, single-shot, double-tailed, fully invisible design, with an internal bomb bay, but from the earlier disclosed JF20 model. Look, its bomb bay should only accommodate two medium-range air-to-air missiles of the 霹雳-12 or 霹雳-15 level for air combat in a fully invisible configuration.Photo: JF17.6 (near) and JF20 (far), thanks to the original authorAt the same time, another model, model JF17.6, was first revealed, using a semi-invisible design. The nose is the same as the JF20, but the overall invisible shape is not as aggressive as the JF20. In particular, it has no internal bombardment under the abdomen, but an invisiblely designed conformal weapon bag. The invisible improvement of the Boeing F/A-18E/F "Super Hornet" in the United States is also reflected in a less technically risky solution.


Thank you so much, but in fact this report (https://mil.news.sina.com.cn/jssd/2018-12-29/doc-ihqhqcis1389047.shtml) came out a bit earlier as far as I remember and - typical for several Sina-reports - assumed it would be real.

Later the true modeller came out and revealed that he all did on his own just for fun.

Here is the original (now dead) link to the report:

Is Iraqi sale linked to paf buying 34 f16 blk 52 from Iraqi airforce?
if an iraqi sale is to occur, its tied to a sale of shahpar 2, i did say a while back that a shahpar contract was to be signed soon, that perhaps a jf17 order will follow...they just went silent thus far, maybe it was signed, i just didnt follow up on the discussion

Perhaps now its shahpar 3 as its officially been unvieled

Actually there was some news of them buying Shahpar 2s a few weeks back that kind of went under the radar as people were questioning its authenticity, the source was an Iraqi news website quoting the Iraqi defence minister.

Maybe the head of the PAF wanted to tell you in person, not just over the phone

this was from a chat with gids, i believe it was like 4-5 months ago they we're nearing the signature of a contract, but ofc no mention of the jf-17, but it was always tied together as a package so would make sense

The man brought results. Hes going to be plastered everywhere as a result. It is the common song and dance in pakistan after even a hint of victory. I do not mind him if he remains competent at his duties
 
no, it was a shahpar 2 contract
But why go for shahpar 2 when shahpar 3 is close to entering service. I do not know delivery and service timelines myself but wouldnt it be better for the iraqis to wait longer instead

he was doing this before any victories...

not to mention the forced early retirement of some great officers in exchange for his chums... mini munir, ruined the finest force.
