SAC FC-31 Stealth Fighter: News & Discussions

[lcloo]

J31 is a private project, no funding from government.

Whether this project will continue, postpone or withdrawn depends on financial burden on the company. I.e. Will this project bring profit to the company? Will it result in serious cashflow deficit? Will there be buyers with sufficient orders?

The board of directors will be the one to make such decision.

Another rumour? This week 2.0 will have its maiden flight with WS13E.

At this point I'd assumed SAC canned the 310 project because of bleak export prospects, gives me hope the 2.0 will see the light of day.

This rumour might turn out to be true.
"七月一日，这是一个特殊的日子，配装黎阳公司某型发动机的飞机轰鸣声震醒了北方静寂的大地，成功实现首飞。
上午，9时53分，配装黎阳某发动机的飞机昂首冲向天空，按照预定航路完成爬行、飞行等任务，10时01分成功着陆，整个飞行过程中发动机工作7分33秒，参数正常，工作稳定。“成功了！”“成功了！”机场响起了一片欢呼声。
在建党95周年之际，黎阳人以实际行动向祖国交了一份厚礼，践行“动力强军 科技报国”的使命，以迎难而上的决心，坚定不移的信心，持之以恒的耐心，为航空发动机事业冲锋在前，贡献智慧和力量。
作为该型机总承制单位，公司充分发挥了“厂所结合”优势，在各承制单位的大力配合和全体参研人员的共同努力下，攻坚克难，亮剑图强，通力协作，出色完成任务并成功实现首飞，标志着该型新机研制工作取得阶段性胜利，是中推涡扇新机研制中又一个非常重要的里程碑！"

Since 1.0 has gone through static test, and the changes is mainly on the canted tail, is it necessary for second round of static tests?

So, may be fuselage and landing gear have been strengthened for aircraft carrier operation? The continuation of project may come from interest by PLAN for successor of J15, I guessed.

New home grown engine test . WS31E

The smoke looks like RD-93. Where did you get this? The engine shouldn't be WS-13E?
