Chengdu J-20 5th Generation Aircraft News & Discussions

Very interesting ... I wonder what @Asoka has to say about this?

"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.

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.
 
Source please, without posting source is against the forum rules, bro


Calm down ... it was mentioned in the first post already by @Figaro

Oh, Im sure certain members again take this for granted and proif for +240 kN WS-15 engines from day one. :dance3:

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.

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.

BEIJING, July 21 -- The National Intellectual Property Administration (NIPA) announced that China's stealth fighter J-20 won the Gold Medal for Appearance Design of China Patent Award on July 14. This is the first time for the Chengdu Aircraft Design & Research Institute (CADI), a division of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), to won such a national-level patent award.

The China Patent Award was co-established in 1989 by the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), which aims to strengthen the protection and application of intellectual property rights, and accelerate the implementation of intellectual property strategies and innovation-driven development strategies. It is also the only government award in China for the inventions and creations with patent rights.

The award won by J-20 fighter jet is not only the recognition of the CADI' work, but also the affirmation of its independent innovation capability in aircraft design.

The J-20 is an all-weather, medium and long-range, heavy-duty supersonic stealth fighter jet independently developed by China. With excellent air combat performance and accurate strike capability, it took the first test flight in Chengdu, Sichuan province, on January 11, 2011, and was commissioned to the Chinese PLA Air Force in early 2018.

How's that, isn't she a senior reporter with scmp?
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.
 
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.

I suspect the security law is connected to this move, making it harder to cooperate directly with slanderous American propaganda mouthpieces like Bloomberg behind closed doors and to secure deals. The dependency is however still there.
