SAC FC-31 Stealth Fighter: News & Discussions

.
Unless we can see the next prototype built and flying very shortly, otherwise the project seems pretty much gone.
Or simply like the existence of the J-15D (or so), the public saw the pictures only when the time was ripe for it :P But not anytime sooner prior to it.

I think the FC-31 definitely deserves a chance for the PLAN naval tender. Its size and layout make it ideal for carrier operations, in contrast to a navalized J-20 variant. And the 0.05 m^2 RCS is very decent as well for a VLO fighter. Overall, the future of the FC-31 is getting brighter and brighter as more features get added.

Give it a chance. The FC-31V2 is a much more capable version of the original FC-31 ... any future upgrade would be even better.

Well if the PLAN is to get a stealthy Fighter that is not based on the FC-31, we could be waiting a while :(
