Chengdu J-20 5th Generation Aircraft News & Discussions

Very interesting ... this post is now almost one year old and since then nothing! :fie:

Nothing until I received a mail from a friend ... and YES, as it seems, the first J-20A for Anshan no. 61x2x was spotted. :smitten:

Huitong leaked info again?
 
. . .
Do post to SDF if it won’t get him/her in trouble.


I promised him not to show. Anyway it clearly shows the number 61022 and that particular aircraft was seen at CAC. I'm in fact a bit surprised that so far none of the regular spotters at CAC leaked anything.

Any info on engines?
 
. . . .
Yes ... grey with low visibility markings like any other operational J-20 but finally with a 61x2x number!
Does China have any other bottlenecks besides engine?

Like stealth coating and stuff?

The Chief designer of J20 Yang wei passed his national college entrance examnation (Gaokao) and went to the universty at 15.

Yang Wei had fateful journey to arrive at his education, achievements and career today. Even though his exam score met the Northwestern Polytechnical University standard but he's color blind thus failed the physical & health requirements. Fortunately his school teacher knowing his good marks helped him by making some call to the university, and it happened that the head of the department in NWPU, a student of Qian Xuesen, was also color blind. Yang Wei was asked to come and met in person, and eventually was admitted to the NWPU.

And another crossroad, also from his own words in above footage, at one point of time he was just short of one point mark to get the first place when there's a vacant for government scholarship for studying abroad, thus the other candidate who was selected. Upon his flash back, that narrow miss was helpful for his life. Had he obtained that scholarship and studied abroad, he might not have been what he's today.

Some story about his admission into the prestigious Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS):

Besides the news concerning the eventually halted J-10C deliveries, this is the - at least IMO - even more important part:

So come on ... please show us such a J-20A with 61x2x-serials!??

PS: And yes I know this image of J-20A no. 61021 is a BAD FAKE. :fie:

Why would China stop J10C deliveries? Granted J20 is very good, but the platforms form different roles? Do you have an article/news story on this stop ?
