The possibility to manufacture the Chinese FC-31 fifth generation fighter in Egypt
In this video, we discuss the announcement of the Chinese company #Changdu #Changdu about allowing the transfer of technology to produce #China’s #fifth_generation #stealth fighter and the establishment of external production and assembly lines for it with Chinese weapons customers, and what the year 2022 will witness is a resounding surprise for the Egyptian Air Force, with the introduction of the next generation fighter The fifth Chinese stealth Jian 31, known as FC-31/J31-V2, is manufactured locally by the aircraft factory.
The Chinese Shenyang Aircraft Company (SAC) offered its customers to establish assembly lines abroad for its FC-31 stealth fighter, in order to increase its export opportunities for its stealth aircraft, as China established a dedicated office to promote the FC-31 stealth fighter in the country, according to Zhan Qiang, Deputy General Manager of SAC, a subsidiary of China Aviation Industry Corporation.
The report said that compared with the American F-35, the Chinese FC-31 has its own advantages including advanced technology, acceptable price, and most importantly the absence of political restrictions and full service.
The FC-31, China's second stealth fighter jet after the J-20, was on display at the 2021 China Air Show in Zhuhai along with the powerful PL-15E beyond visual range air-to-air missile.
A detailed report on the Chinese FC-31/J31-V2 stealth fighter and the opportunities for manufacturing it in Egypt
First, we must know that this fighter is a great option for transferring technology and local manufacturing technology. If completed, it will be a step that will put Egypt ten years ahead of what it would have achieved if it manufactured a fourth-generation fighter.
The fighter is without a doubt a clone of the American F35 fighter and carries advanced technology such as an ESA-class radar system, with advanced Avionics.
It is noteworthy that in May 2019, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi met with the Minister of Defense of the People’s Republic of China, where he said that Egypt and the People’s Republic of China were entering into a fundamentally new level of military cooperation, and at that time, talk on military sites of purchasing a large group of Chinese fighters, including the fifth generation J-31 stealth fighter.
J-31 fighter specifications
The Shenyang J-31 medium-sized stealth fighter is characterized by a remarkable supersonic inlet “DSI” design that increases stealth properties. The airframe includes a pair of trapezoidal-shaped wings with a low aspect ratio with pieces of titanium and composite materials. Each wing contains At a 35 degree inclination, the stealth design provides a reduced RCS radar cross section.
The plane is invisible to L-band and Ku-band radars, will be low-observable to a large number of multi-frequency sensors, and the engine nozzles have apparently been redesigned to scatter radar and infrared signals.
General characteristics:
• The length of the fighter plane is 17.3 meters, its height is about 4.8 meters, and its wingspan is 11.5 meters.
• Empty weight is about 17 tons.
• Maximum take-off weight is 28 tons.
• Suite area: 40 m2.
• Internal load of weapons: 2000 kg
• External load of weapons: 6000 kg
• Fighter speed: 2200 km/h
• The aircraft can carry out missions at medium and low altitudes.
- The cost of the fighter unit is 80 million dollars.
• Engine (WS-13E)
• Developer: Guizhou Aircraft Corporation
• Maximum thrust: 51.2 kN; 101 kN with afterburner.
• Length: 4.14 m.
• Diameter: 1.02 m.
• Weight: 1135 kg.
• Thrust-to-weight ratio: 7.8.
• Internal fuel: 7,500 kg.
• This new engine makes performance better at the next level:
• Maximum speed: 1,800-2,230 km/h.
• Maximum speed at low altitude: 950-1,400 km/h.
• Range: 2,000-2,500 km, instead of 1,800 for the first model.
• Service ceiling: 20,000 m, instead of 18,000 for the first model.
• Rate of ascent: 330 m/s.
• Cockpit and avionics.
• The aircraft is operated by a single pilot.
• The cockpit is surrounded by a two-piece transparent canopy to provide greater visibility for the pilot.
• The TbMLL cockpit contains one large screen, like its American counterpart, the F35.
• The aircraft can be equipped with the latest avionics, including multi-function displays, a helmet-mounted display, an electro-optical targeting system (EOTS), an attitude director indicator (ADI), and advanced sensors and communications systems, and China has all of these capabilities.
Fighter radar:
AESA positive scan array radar – model 1475 / KLJ_7A
Technical capabilities:
Identify friend or foe “IFF”.
Non-cooperative target recognition “NCTR”.
Possibility of continuous tracking.
Tracking while scanning “TWS”.
Maximum range: 225 km.
Sensor/electronic warfare systems
• A-Star’s EOTS-86 photovoltaic system.
• A-Star marketing brochures indicate that the J-31 can use passive sensors to detect and guide missiles against the Northrop Grumman B-2 bomber and Lockheed Martin F-22 fighter, even while its radar is jammed by a Boeing EA-18G Growler.
• We set detection ranges for the B-2 bomber at a distance of 150 km and for the F-22 fighter at a distance of up to 110 km.
• A-Star's EOTS-86 appears to be quite similar to the EOTS electro-optical targeting system
• The EOSS electro-optical sensor system and infrared search and tracking sensors are placed under the nose shown in the pictures.
• The developed system A-STAR’S EORD-31_ IRST – “third-generation thermal detection” in infrared has a superior ability to monitor, photograph, and track “2000s/2010s, Impr LANTIRN, Litening II/III, ATFLIR.”
• Role: IRST, Imaging Infrared Seach and Track.
