What's new

The new SAC 5 generation stealth fighter

I do not think it is L-15 because you can see a short protruding sting between where the two engines is to be placed. You don't see that on the L-15, whose engine nozzles are closer together.

If this plane has two engines, does it mean that it will use WS-13 or some other advanced medium engine variant?
 
WS-10 is more powerful, but is it significantly heavier than ws-13? This plane is visibly smaller than J-20 or J-11B which currently uses WS-10. (J-10 is single engined). Weight could be an issue with this fighter.
 
Looks like all control surface is absent on the thing covered, as well as the canopy, therefore the wing shape looks incomplete. Right now it could simply be the main body shell yet to be assembled somewhere else. Btw maybe this indicates that it will have all moving tail and horizontal stabilizers.
BINGO! :victory:
 
I still don't understand why would 601 keep spending money on a project which has already lost it's future with J20.
 
to early to call however news a new aircraft will be shown this year.

WS-13 engines for jf-17. :coffee: more likely WS-10.

I start to lose my faith on SAC, those old dudes are running out of creativity and conservative mind has made them lagging behind of the younger team from CAC. :coffee:

SAC has fallen way behind compared to Chengdu.
 
isn't far off from the early J-20 photos but early to call. :coffee:

Thak God people are still using their brain before writting. Btw where are gambit and oscar ?
 
Here's a close-up. Notice the swept back projections on the wing tips. And there appear to be no tail fins. Probably dismantled for transportation purposes? Or it could be an aircraft being transported to the nearest military airbase after a crash landing!! :blink: The question is: Which aircraft? Certainly not a J-20!

Well i dont think it is L15
why??

1) check the radome of L15 it is longer & narrower
while the model has shorter & broader

2) Check the levcons /Wing root in L15it is more rounded & approximating below the canopy
meanwhile the plane profile in that region look straighter

3)Check the fuselarge region behind the canopy in L15 it is more ovoid /elevated
Meanwhile check the fuselarge region IN MODEL behind the canopy it is flatter
