Chengdu J-20 5th Generation Aircraft News & Discussions

[NGAD IS THE BEST]

Didn't some guy over on SDF claim the 2035 uses a new WS-10 variant instead of WS-15? Do you think that may be possible?

Why China needs to develop WS-10 version comparable to WS-15 if WS-15 project is finished and in production?

New WS-10 variants can be used to reengine the older J-20s, since apparently only the J-20A can fit WS-15 due to DSI changes

Increased thrust version of WS-10 can effect as the same as WS-15, increased thrust means needs larger airflows to the engines makes intakes lager and smaller DSI almost same as WS-15 equipped version and do remember bro there are relatively fewer WS-10C equipped J-20 as compare to other versions of WS-10 used by J-11/J-15/J-16/J-10 series of jets, there is more importance to maintain/ reequipped/service all versions of WS-10 rather then develop new version of WS-10 for older J-20 which will have minimal gains for the company

But why do you use a „base“ in Bangladesh as a starting point for the „combat radius“? It makes no sense and is misleading as if the J-20 could cover almost all of India with its range, which is just nonsense.

I was using a base out of myanmar. Control of Myanmar would give PLAAF air dominance over all of mainland SEA + secure access to Indian Ocean for PLAN

Now here is for some people who still doubted the stealth effectiveness of J20 with irrelevant comments about cannard Hear it yourself what the US pilot said courtesy of Elon Musk

Pure propaganda as if Elon would have access to such videos, could in fact even correctly judge its worth ! Pure nonsense.

Even more it's a faked video composed from different engagements.

@机外停车Rabbit wishes a Happy New Year and if I'm not mistaken, with one of the most impressive images of a J-20S twin-seater published so far!

There is something special about the nozzles on the engines in this photo.
Some Chinese military fans believe that the engine on the left is suspected to have a 2D TVC nozzle.
