For now, the J-20 is a fighter. Maybe in the future, it will be able to carry bombs. But the strait continues to be the main problem. The weather give China a 2-3 weeks window to attack, invade, and secure Taiwan. Once that window closes, resupplying the occupation force will be difficult and uneven, so China must defeat Taiwanese defense on the first run. Assuming Taiwan resists the way the Ukrainians are, it will be bloody for the PLA and if they fail to pacify the Taiwanese in a few weeks, China will lose in Taiwan the way Russia lost in Ukraine.Can J-20s not bomb Taiwan's defenses into submission? They don't have too many F-16s even

The PDF Chinese will go on and on about how Taiwanese are weak, girlish, and too cowardly to fight. We can hope that the PLA leadership thinks like them. That will make the defeat of the PLA that much greater.
