Zhuhai Airshow 13th Edition - September 28, 2021 to 3rd October, 2021

.
It is better that they can mount all other EW pods to the wings, no need to be real ones, mockups with realistic appearance will be welcomed.

They have mounted other pods to the wings and under intakes of the J-16D static display.

Lot of expectations for surprises this time in Zuhai Air Show. Either something new on J-20 or J-35. I see a mockup display of relevantly JF-17 Block-III with HD-1 Supersonic Ship Killer missile.

now I understand the other discussion, but are you sure it is a HD-1?? IMO it is not since it looks totally different.
WS-10 J-20 is confirmed. Not sure about anything else.


Confirmed by whom?

Yes, it can be different version or a different missile. However, I see Hongda participating in the show hence, assumed on my part. May be much progress has been done.

I have heard too but a different source of mine. Therefore, I said that expecting a surprise.

I really hope to see J-20 soon with WS 15 and J-31 with WS 19 engine.
There are advantages to J-20 using WS-10C engine as opposed to WS-15, especially for twin seater strike variant. Because of its lower bypass ratio, WS-15 has higher fuel consumption than WS-10 by its very nature of design. While that increases combat performance, it reduces range.
