Chinese UAV News & Discussions (Strictly)

[serenity]

GJ-11 is the first and currently only aircraft in the world to be using thrust vectoring along wing. No moving control surfaces. Something BAe said they are researching called MAGMA project. Actually they just make so much noise about things people think only they are at leading in this research fields. Same with variable geometry with is main next generation fighter technology. Totally variable geometry aircraft not just wing sweep.

GJ-11 shown in parade is just mockup like all parade piece. The real one no one is sure whether main engine exhaust has completed that design shown in mockup.

How do you come to this idea? I know there were some rumours on this based on certain gaps found on the mock up seen on the parade, but since we haven't seen a single image of the real GJ-11 by now I would be careful with such claims or taking these as facts.

Known because the mockup is always used in those parades. Almost everything is using mockup. Everything in parades are in service.
