Very interesting ... I wonder what @Asoka has to say about this?
Supercruising at over Mach 2.5 would make it faster than dedicated interceptors like the Mig 31 ... that would be absolutely crazy. But yeah I think it should be maximum speed as well ... a max speed of Mach 2.5 is still very impressive."一分钟,歼20可以战斗巡航52公里"
"In a minute, J-20 can combat cruise 52km."
I think they worded it wrong, and it should be maximum speed. I would shit myself if it was supercruising speed.
Source please, without posting source is against the forum rules, bro

Assuming the new batch of WS-10B with 14.5 tons of thrust has not been installed yet, Mach 2.5 is very impressive. There is rumored to be a 16 ton thrust WS-10 variant (IPE?) in the works. If that materializes, I'm not sure if WS-15 is even necessary any longer.Supercruising at over Mach 2.5 would make it faster than dedicated interceptors like the Mig 31 ... that would be absolutely crazy.

Thank God it was not selected.
Well WS-15 is a generational improvement over the WS-10 ... not to mention higher thrust to weight ratio (10 vs 8), considerably lower specific fuel consumption, and usage of more advanced materials (e.g. next gen superalloys) to achieve better reliability. Also, I don't think the WS-10's rather high bypass ratio is optimal. Finally, WS-15 still offers higher thrust than the WS-10 at around 180 kN ... a 16 tonne Taihang would be the absolute limit of the engine core while the WS-15 could potentially go beyond 180 kN.Assuming the new batch of WS-10B with 14.5 tons of thrust has not been installed yet, Mach 2.5 is very impressive.

How's that, isn't she a senior reporter with scmp?https://www.scmp.com/announcements/...-morning-posts-new-digital-subscription-plans
Looks like there will be less Minnie Chan articles from now on
What I mean is since SCMP will become subscription based (meaning you need to pay money to read their articles), less people will be able to view Minnie Chan's articles as they are behind a paywall.How's that, isn't she a senior reporter with scmp?
Lol no. SCMP is a blatantly obvious mouthpiece and echochamber for blatant to subversive anti-Chinese and pro-American propaganda. Their official and inofficial publishing partners in Washington and Hong Kong wont be locked out by some paywall, they are the reason why SCMP is being circulated so much in first place and you will see SCMPs claims quoted like its the Chinese Foreign Ministry nevertheless. You will just not be able to verify that the disinfo is completely baseless or based on spins and dubious sources because the little man is locked out.https://www.scmp.com/announcements/...-morning-posts-new-digital-subscription-plans
