SAC FC-31 Stealth Fighter: News & Discussions

[帅的一匹]

Four other navies (that of Russia, the United States, France, & India) have done exactly that (induct 2+ types of fighters onboard), so it shouldn't be an issue. If anything, a hi-lo, short/long-range combination is more flexible.

US navy only have two type of fighter on board: one is F18(4th gen), another is F35B(5th gen). I want SAC dedicating to stealthy design on carrier borne fighters! Why damn every time CAC meddle in? FC31 is a very fine platform, it shall be given enough support for development.

A J-20 & FC-31 combo would cause no more logistical & organizational issues than operating a F-18 & F-35 or Su-33 & MiG-29K combination. What ends up on PLAN vessels will be determined by doctrine & goal, not who gets what.

Real or fake? Note the livery.

Hmmm... not really sure. At first sight on my handy I thought it was real, but still in primer. The panels match closely the images we already know.
However at second sight the panels are different.

So maybe a CG??

No, only that a model of how no. 3 will look like will be unveiled at Paris.

it seems that both you and me misunderstood Sir.Alan warnes when he said PT-3 . PT3 is actually v2 prototype 1 and PT-1 is v1 .... so what you mean to be unveiled in paris air show is model of pt3 which has been appearing in dubai , zhuhai as well as ideas shows

Will Blk2 specially designed for Pakistan? Cause I see no interests of PLAAF in it!! Who will be he only airforce China is willing to give its top notch tech to? Pakistan ! The final result will be, China induct Fc31 navy version and PAF induct airforce version. Mark my words!

J31 is multirole, not air superiority fighter.

Bro i just mean that J31 will bring air superiority of PAF over the indian air force because of its stealthy qualities

In that sense you are right. But it will depend on how many PAF able to induct and how it employs them with other 4.5/ 4++ gen assets.

 

[Pak.one]

You are right brother, but first of all we have to wait for the J31 combat ready after insha Allah we hope Pakistan will induct this aircraft in good numbers to turn down indian large quantity fleet advantage

J31 is multirole, not air superiority fighter.

Main mission for PAF will be air superiority, just like F-16 for PAF which multirole jet
