Events: U.S. surprise: J -20 PLA is not only a legend actually
| Event Details:
According to the U.S. "defense-" news site on the 27th, a recent report in the Chinese Internet, there has been a series of large, seem to have pictures of stealth aircraft performance which, if confirmed, this will be the proof of the new fifth-generation Chinese multi-purpose fighter J-20 fighter first evidence emerged. Picture shows, this aircraft being tested, and an unknown airport along the taxiway taxiway.
According to foreign media information on China's new generation fighter for all sorts of conjecture.
U.S. Defense News: The picture a few days ago began to appear on Internet forums in China, but because of the low-resolution images, was initially suspected to be forged. Now, however, some of the more clear picture of the major Web sites in China, forcing many experts concede that the spread of the plane's existence.
Of course, the above may still be part of well-made hoax, after all, this is not the first exposure the military system on China's latest limited few pictures. In the past, including many systems, including nuclear submarines, have emerged through the pictures in the way of the Internet forum open to the world.
Russian Political and Military Analysis, deputy director Alexander 赫拉姆奇欣 said: "The Chinese Five ground tests of the message machine may be a false news. You know, Sun Tzu once said, 'fair in war'. However, the situation can not be excluded quite the contrary. China reluctant to spend money to develop their own aviation industry. If China really have their own fifth-generation fighter, then it constitutes a threat to the United States first, would force the latter bind its ambitions in Asia. "
Russian Foreign and Defense Policy Board, said multilingual expert Alexander Moore, "Not long ago we also thought that China lagged far behind in the field of our fighters and the U.S.. But they have been willing to spend money on R & D, now they began to harvest fruit. this nation to be independent manned space program, successfully developed the Five machine is not worth surprise. "
Russia's "Independent Military Review" magazine Zebian 维克多利托夫 King said: "China is not yet independently developed 4th generation fighter, but suddenly developed a more complicated 5th generation fighter, I doubt it." China Aviation Products The main purchasers are some African countries. Their products are not currently with Russia, the United States, France and Sweden, to compete with aircraft. "
Engine: provided by Russia, but eventually will use the domestic engine production
"Jane's Defence Weekly" reporter Rob Hewson has been reported that Russia provided F -20 117S 32,000 lbs thrust engine, this engine is sufficient in the 80,000 lbs class aircraft installation - perhaps supersonic cruise and flexible F-22 low sex ratio, but larger weapons bay, fuel more. "
United States, "Aviation Week": J-20 engine AL-31F may belong to the family of models, the final production model will use under development in the domestic engine.
United States, "Aviation Week" guess: The size of the ground support vehicle comparison, the aircraft is about 75 feet (22.86 meters), a wingspan of over 45 feet (13.72 meters), mounted in the case without external take-off weight of about 75,000 pounds to 80,000 pounds (34 tons to 36.3 tons), which means that J -20 with considerable internal fuel capacity, body length and in the 1960s US-made F-111 fighter-bombers rather, F-111 fuel capacity is 34,000 pounds (15.4 tons).
Australia "AustralianAviation" Web site reported: the volume seems to be greater than the U.S. F-22 "Raptor" fighter, and Russia's fifth-generation fighter T-50 par.
"Aviation Week": J -20 J -10 with the similar increases delta canard layout, there are two similar T-50's full-motion vertical tail and two small areas of the pelvic fins. Stealth F-22 body shape and the like. Along both sides of the body is inclined twin vertical tails, wing and fuselage smooth transition, surrounded by sharp front edge of the fuselage, the fuselage surface tilt angle is greater than the F-35, the overall style of the cabin without borders and F-22 similar.
"Han and Defense Review," founder Andrei Chang: China four generations of the whole machine moving vertical tail, cut the whole acting delta wings, edge of the design.
"Han and Defense Review," founder Andrei Chang: with unprecedented mobility, especially lateral mobility, low mobility, ground and air mobility.
United States, "Aviation Week": F -20 characteristics of the rear fuselage is not in full compliance with stealth standards, including the wing and rudder fairing protruding axisymmetric engine exhausts and the pelvic fin design, so the low performance of J -20 stealth the full range of F-22 stealth fighter.
"Han and Defense Review," founder Andrei Chang: J-20 delta-wing design to a certain extent at the expense of stealth, stealth materials technology reach F-22.
"Han and Defense Review," founder Andrei Chang: According to J-20's empty weight and domestic afterburning engines, the current J-20 supersonic cruise capability to achieve the impossible.
United States, "Aviation Week": J -20 must be carried out within one to two years in the first test flight.
U.S. Defense News website: J-20 high-volume service may take years or even longer
RIA Novosti: "J-20" The Birth of F-22A than in the U.S. for nearly 20 years later, Russia's MiG -1.44 later than 17 years later than the Soviet Union about 14 -47 years. If China accepts the "J-20" as a member of this series, 10 years China will create the first fifth-generation fighter aircraft; Otherwise, at least 15-20 years to China on the "J-20" batch production.
US-China Economic and Security Review Commission's annual report submitted to Congress called the Five Chinese-made J-XX fighter is expected to be fitted out in 2018.
U.S. Department of Defense's intelligence, said at least 2020, China will not have a 5th generation fighter, 2025, China has limited equipment, only a few new generation of fighter aircraft.
Russian Political and Military Analysis, deputy director Alexander 赫拉姆奇欣 said, "As the fifth generation fighter fielded, I do not rule out earlier than we Chinese."
"Time" Web site: Some observers believe that the picture of the aircraft should be true, but there is long overdue. "China has financial, industrial skills, technology base. This allows greater freedom in China, can equal or surpass the United States there is now 20 years of design."
United States, "Aviation Week," the Bill Sweetman said: "Why China needs a short-range stealth aircraft? Any need for such combat capability to strike targets in mainland China is very far away."
"Pakistan Patriot": J-20 stealth aircraft appeared to shock the aviation community, which marks the Chinese Air Force has taken a big step forward, China is no longer dependent on Russian or Israeli air force obsolete design. This article analyzes this mean the end of U.S. air dominance? New Russian T-50 stealth aircraft first flight, the analysts also issued a similar warning. |
