Most websites says it will be flying wing design bomber with similar profile like B-2 and B-21 with subsonic speed, you're confusing regional stealth supersonic bomber project which China currently working on its a separate project than H-20 project
Another report say H-20 is supersonic, if you understand Chinese.

No, this is a reputable military TV show from Taiwan. I am not an aircraft expert to give you such opinion. All the specs for H 20 haven't been officially released yet.

It will be a subsonic bomber can't reach supersonic speeds because of flying wing design and what proof that's its a respectful military show and its participants?

The guests include retired Taiwanese Air Force Commander general and military topics expert. I have watched their shows on other topics before, they don't make wild claims like some other programs.

Lol retired Taiwanese airforce Commander just guessing wild impossible conspiracy theories not retired PLAAF airforce Commander claims if this Commander was from PLAAF years than I believe it Taiwanese have no clue about the development of H-20 they are just guessing wild

Did they have the links to obtain information of your top secret H-20 project? Definitely not they are just having some wild fun
 
  • Haha
Reactions: ety
The burden upon you to prove it if it is then it will have limited payload capacity with 1 or 2 bombs, don't live in your fantasy world and lala land

And are you talking about YU-XX, if you're talking about this vehicle then its missions unknown to the general public just like US X-37, its primary missions would be definitely spying not bomber of any kind, so please provide the solid proofs If you not provide me a proper proof I would consider your claim bogus/ridiculous and absurd
I'm not obligated to explain it to you. You can live in your world. Time will prove everything.

These projects are highly confidential. No one can provide the evidence you ask for. According to your logic, none of it is credible. Then just leave your doubts to yourself.According to China's national security law, even if someone knows something, they won't tell you. Only Google-searchable evidence will be provided.
 

China To Unveil Rival to US' B-21 Raider Stealth Bomber 'Soon': Official​

Published Mar 12, 2024 at 6:14 AM EDT

China may soon unveil a new aircraft to counter the U.S.' B-21 stealth bomber, a Chinese military official has said.

People's Liberation Army Air Force Deputy Commander Wang Wei announced the imminent unveiling of China's H-20 stealth bomber during an interview on the sidelines of China's "Two Sessions" meeting on Monday.

"It's coming soon, just wait!" Wang told Chinese state-owned newspaper Hong Kong Commercial Daily in an interview on Monday.

The Two Sessions meeting is a gathering of the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, during which Chinese leadership discuss state matters, budgets and economic policies for the upcoming five-year period.

A Model Of H-20 Bomber

A representative image of China's strategic nuclear bomber the H-20 as shared on the X-like platform Weibo on March 11, 2024. China may soon be ready to unveil the H-20, a Chinese military official has said.

The news about the H-20 bomber comes after the maiden flight of the Northrop Grumman B-21 "Raider" from Palmdale, California, on November 10, 2023. The nuclear-capable bomber has since carried out multiple test flights at undisclosed locations, marking a success for the U.S. strategic bomber program.

The Department of Defense describes the B-21 as part of a broader system for conventional long-range strike capabilities, both manned or and unmanned, and employing a diverse range of munitions.

The H-20, a project shrouded in secrecy since 2016, has been the subject of global speculation regarding China's ability to overcome technical challenges.

"There is no bottleneck, it can be solved. Our scientific researchers are now very good and all have this capability." Wang told the Hong Kong Commercial Daily.

Newsweek has contacted the U.S. Department of Defense for comment.

The H-20 represents a leap forward for the Chinese Air Force, promising to enhance its operational capabilities.

"That must be the case. A generation of equipment brings a generation of combat effectiveness," Wang stated, acknowledging the transformative impact of the H-20 on China's aerial warfare capabilities. He also highlighted its significance as part of "a new generation of new aircraft."

Dubbed the "Storm" by analysts, the H-20 positions China alongside the United States as one of the few nations possessing stealth strategic bombers.

Experts anticipate that the H-20's introduction could potentially alter the strategic balance between the U.S. and China, particularly in the Pacific region.

"A long-range stealth bomber that could reach U.S. airspace is another example of China's efforts to achieve nuclear parity with the United States," Brent M. Eastwood wrote in international affairs magazine The National Interest on December 24, 2023.

The strategic value of the H-20, which is said to have a payload capacity of 45 tons, extends beyond mere power projection. With an estimated range of approximately 5,281 miles, capable of being extended through aerial refueling, it threatens to be able to reach Japan, Guam, the Philippines, and potentially, even the West Coast of the United States, Eastwood wrote for The National Interest. Such capabilities underscore the H-20's potential to alter the nuclear balance with the United States.

When questioned about rivalry with the United States and the possibility of achieving a strategic advantage, Wang Wei said: "We don't compete with the United States, we only protect our own safety."

JH-20 is suppose to be supersonic; a design similar to the F/B-23 design but with the intakes on top.

Unfortunately I don‘t understand spoken CHinese but whatever it says, you really try to use such a fan-made YouTube video as proof it could be supersonic, simply since a fan-boy took a wrong claim by the SCMP and made a video??
