Chinese 6th Generation Aircraft News & Discussions

[iblini]

For years USA fan boys ridiculed J-20 canards quoting a major flaw in stealing. Irony is USA also adopted same design. Now same trolls will take a 180 degree turn
Also don't you people think USA's new so called 6th Generation fighter looks a lot like J-20. So is it safe for China now to blame USA for stealing their design??

We can see from the reaction worldwide, the F47 does not reach the level of hype that American once get through these kind of major announcement.

I went through some hot posts and youtube video comments, even the most loyal places like Jap/Taiwan/SK, they aren't convinced let alone worship the plane, that is a rare scene, many mocked Boeing and this CG canard design.

america used to be the pioneer now they are simply reacting, shocking to see the least but props to the Chinese. Their hardwork paid off big time..... all you could see on western socials is panic and false bravado.... this hasn't been the case for at least 50 years!

This is what we call a “杀头图(behead picture)”. It means that the person who took the photo will be held criminally liable (except for official personnel who were ordered to disclose it).

F-35 is stealth strike fighter, while J-35 and J-20 are stealth multirole combat aircraft.

Different design result in different top speed.

F-35 is wide, or fat. J-20 may fly faster than F-22, J-35 very likely fly faster than F-35.

It's hard to find 4G/5G fighters on this planet that fly slower than the F35 and F18. Oh, and maybe only the Barak8 air defense missiles on Indian warships fly slower than them.

OK, today it flew again, it seems everything is going perfectly smooth.

The J-36 coming back to CAC's base at Chengdu/Huangtianba concluding its third test flight today.

At this point, I am eager for more spotlight on J-50.

I'm guessing, with AI speeding up development, serial production can begin as soon as 2030, faster than J-20's development timeline.

Look at the cockpit, every CGI and prediction was wrong, most assumed the cockpit to looked like J20 but damn, it's totally different.
