Chinese J-20 broke the record for combat cruising speed

The newest Chinese fighter J-20 has undoubted advantages over American counterparts. One of them is the impressive performance of the speed that this machine has achieved. This writes the Chinese edition of Sohu.

The biggest feature of the J-20 is the supersonic cruising speed that the F-22 cannot match.

A Chinese machine with a full combat load, according to data released by CCTV, at a combat cruising speed, flies 52 km per minute, which in terms means reaching Mach 2,5 speed. At the same time, the same indicator for the F-22 is only Mach 1,3, which indicates a twofold advantage. In this regard, the American product can actually be called a transonic aircraft, the newspaper writes.

This means that the J-20 is the only fully supersonic combat aircraft in the world.

- concludes Sohu.

The publication reports that it was possible to reach this peak due to the aerodynamic features of the machine design ("slim body") and the engine in 18 tons. The use of the "duck" scheme (horizontal tail is located in front of the main wing) and giving the tail mobility, in turn, provide high fighter maneuverability.

The design of the J-20 is extremely successful, which indicates that China in the development of combat aircraft is completely out of the situation, forcing them to pursue advanced foreign technologies

- concludes Sohu.

Well, well, I would not have boldly claimed in their place.

[URAL72]

I still do not understand, and on what engines? Full load, only internal compartments need to be understood? I think ours is no less high-speed, and the engines are more reliable. I think the disease "analogs.net" has reached the Middle Kingdom ... Today, speed is not the main thing for a fighter, radar, OLS, electronic warfare is more important.

[pytar]

As for engines, there is very little information. It is confirmed that J-20 was tested with the Chinese Xian WS-15, which is being developed with 2006 g. One more or less intelligible photo, which I found:

How reliable it is, is not known. By originality of arrangement, etc. I'm not an expert, I can not say anything concrete. If there are experts on the forum who understand the topic, let them comment!

Perhaps you are right! The Chinese are very strict about their military secrets and we can only make assumptions! "Leaks" in the Chinese media are certainly not accidental, everything is very strictly controlled there! The fact of China's rapid development in all fields of science and technology is truly impressive! They copy, steal, improve, create and new! Normal practice when you need to catch up! Everything goes to the fact that tomorrow they will dictate "fashion"! Let nito not make himself the illusion that the Chinese themselves cannot create anything! With such a large population there is full of scientists and top-level specialists, they are not in short supply! Moreover, the discipline is clearly all right, because they regularly shoot at the stadiums of their corruptionists and thieves! On the one hand, the comprehension of China is admirable, and on the other ... apprehension ... 30 years since the Dragon woke up! It is not known whether it will be for the good or in disaster, someday!

[Magic archer]

Well, if this is true, then you can only congratulate the Chinese. It is curious what kind of engines are on the machine and whether ours have anything to do with them. For example, in winter there was an article on the VO that the Chinese are lagging behind in the engine structure. And then bam and afterburning supersound ....

[Victor_B]

And then bam and afterburning supersound ....

Where is it about afterburning?

[Magic archer]

The Chinese position the aircraft as the fifth generation. That is, it has three concepts-stealth, over-maneuverability and cruising supersonic. This concludes that such a function is present

[Victor_B]

Forbidden?
2,5 mach?
On the WFD?
Are you joking?

[Magic archer]

Not. About 2,5 Mach I did not say anything. This is his maximum speed. I originally asked a question about engines. Re-read

[Victor_B]

As far as I have heard, even the SU-57 on the engines of the first stage is just entering cruising supersonic. And, like, also 2 with a tail of sound can give. Afterburner.

[Zhelezyakin]

There is no single world standard for aircraft generations. Each country has its own concepts. For example, we have a demand for over-maneuverability, in the states, as far as I know, it is absent ... China again has its own understanding.
The article states that the J-20 speed of Mach 2,5 is precisely cruising, but the fact that it is achieved at off-road engine operation is not tactfully mentioned. All this is advertising and aggressive marketing, in its purest form ...

[Zhelezyakin]

No way, but this does not stop Chinese journalists)))

[Flies]

That's for sure! No later than this morning, the same publication voiced that China has a super-duper fleet of "no competitors" in new aircraft. And one of them is a helicopter developed by our Kamovs.

Watch Chinese kung fu movies. There they generally fly for about five minutes without afterburner in a jump and at least henna.

Really supersonic production aircraft were SR-71, then MiG-25 and MiG-31. And that’s all.
For all of these airplanes, a long, 2,5-3M supersonic flight was the norm. It was at this speed that training and combat missions were carried out. In fact, for these aircraft, it was a cruising regime.

[Miron]

Cruising speed is the speed that the machine can maintain throughout the flight. Neither to profitability, nor to range, nor to invisibility, nor to afterburner, and in general, to anything else this has nothing to do.
In this sense, the transition to the 5th generation from the 4th from the point of view of the US Air Force is as follows.
If the F-15/16/18 can reach supersonic speed and maintain supersonic speed for 10 minutes, after which they fall, then the 5th generation machines had to maintain supersonic speed without restrictions on materiel, with the exception of refueling.
One of the interesting features of refueling vehicles of the 5th generation is that they can be refueled by each other. Therefore, theoretically, cars of the 5th generation can fly on supersound indefinitely (i.e., enough) for a long time.

Good day everyone! Apparently, in the same way as there is the concept of "Chinese FullHD", there is the concept of "Chinese supersonic". It's a joke, of course, but the progress of the Chinese is impressive (in general, and not according to the article) and, I hope, makes our authorities and designers think.

[abrakadabre]

Nuuuuu ... maybe they (propagandist journalists) lay "the speed of sound in a vacuum" Then even taxiing in tow will be cruising supersonic. And towing with a thaw will become a longer super sound ...

It's too early to congratulate. This is most likely an experimental car with the same engines. November 8, 2018 TASS media: Chinese WS-15 engines failed to debut at the Zhuhai Airshow (https://tass.ru/ekonomika/5768392): "The WS-15 engine is still very unstable in operation, and engineers have not yet were able to identify the cause of the problem, although the traction force is quite sufficient. " "According to experts, the lack of new items at the airshow means that these plans (serial production from the end of 18) will have to be postponed."

ХХ-15 - WS-15, А-31 - AL-31, from top to bottom: steps, thrust on the afterburner, thrust without afterburner, specific fuel consumption on the afterburner and without it, air consumption, gas temperature in front of the turbine, engine mass, specific traction.
I must say that they seemed to be able to finish WS-10, albeit with a very small resource.

[Same lech]

A Chinese vehicle with full combat load, according to data released by CCTV, flies 52 km per minute at a combat cruising speed, which in terms of achieving a speed of Mach 2,5.

Well this is understandable ... but how many minutes can it fly at such a speed and at what altitude?
After all, fuel consumption and heating of the leading edges of the wing are very large ... one salvation is to fly at high altitudes where the friction force of the air decreases.
And what are the consequences for the wing material after such temperature loads?

[ssergey1978]

In any case, this speaks of the great successes of the PRC in modern aviation and engine building. I think a little more and the PRC will become a trendsetter in modern technology.

Journalists they are such journalists !!!
52 km per minute is 3120 km per hour. Not a single aircraft, except for the MiG-31, can reach such a speed, especially at a cruising speed "with full combat load" !!!!
But journalists apparently have their own universe, an alternative one, and simple mathematical calculations are unknown to her.
Especially surprising is the fact of such speed that Russian planes with the same engines, since China buys them from Russia, do not suffer from such agility.
Maybe the Chinese pilots are fed peas before the flight?

[Same lech]

But journalists apparently have their own universe, an alternative one, and simple mathematical calculations are unknown to her.

It's right too much advertising and little specificity on the technical side of the matter ... the authors of such articles skillfully manipulate quotes from editorials of newspapers and competently dust the townsfolk with usually not bothering laws of physics, chemistry, sections of material science ... since the Chinese said that their plane flies 52 km per minute means it is ... take on faith heh heh.
Where the journalistic world is heading ... they lie without blinking an eye.

[abrakadabre]

This is true smile too much advertising and a little specificity on the technical side of things ...

In China, for much less, you can get a bullet in the back of the head with a live broadcast on TV. Not to mention "a lot of specifics on the technical side of the matter." I think their journalists are very aware of this.

In open print, the speed doubles f22 look like this:
Maximum speed: 2410 km / h - maximum (M = 2,25)
Supersonic cruising speed: 1960 km / h (M = 1,82)

It turns out that the Chinese device on cruising is faster than the maximum possible for f22?
A bold but rather controversial statement.

But, if this is so, then no one bothers to officially register this record, and not to come up with the best advertising.

Although it may cost versatility.

[Rostislav Bely]

According to the formally declared characteristics, the F-35 does not have the ability to cruise at supersonic speeds without the use of afterburner. However, according to Lockheed Martin vice president Stephen O'Bryan, the fighter is capable of flying at a speed corresponding to M = 1,2 (i.e. 1,2 times the speed of sound) over ≈240 km without turning on the afterburner.

Even if the WS-15 flight prototypes achieved 180 kilonewtons (40,000 lbf) of thrust in afterburner - this is about 110-120 kN in afterburner mode, this is 1,6 M in afterburner mode and 2,5M is afterburner supersonic.

[voyaka uh]

0.85 MAX - the most economical mode for the F-35. Maximum fuel economy. But he can reach speeds of up to 1.2 MAX without turning on the afterburner and fly like this for several hundred kilometers.
This will consume much more fuel.
When you turn on the afterburner, the F-35 can reach a speed of 1.6 MAX. Afterburner fuel consumption is huge. Only short jerks on the afterburner are possible.

where did you get that these signs are signs of the 5th generation?
and if the Americans release a fighter with a pool - will you consider this also a sign for the 6th generation?
The 5th generation is just a radical leap of opportunity. It is achieved in various ways, on airplanes with different specializations.
the f-22 is stealth, passive reconnaissance and a high orientation to the fact that he will launch the rocket first, while maintaining a very decent LTTH.
f-35 relies on versatility and coordination, while maintaining stealth
in the su-57 it is primarily high fighting qualities with a high range and speed + stealth.
the J-20 has a clear focus on interception. He has shitty with stealth, shitty with cruising supersonic, shitty with super maneuverability, but nevertheless the J-20 may well be the best in the world in the role of an interceptor, including of strategic importance. And the Chinese have already cut down the necessary missiles for this.

they are all different with different signs

It is clear that the Chinese sandpiper will exclusively praise his Chinese swamp. And advertising for that and advertising to embellish, refine and eventually try to sell. The arms sales market is necessary to conquer.

There is a concept of "cruising speed" - the optimal speed with minimum fuel consumption for the maximum flight range, it differs for supersonic and subsonic flight modes.
There is a concept of maximum speed.

What is "combat cruising speed"? - what a confusion of concepts - some kind of nonsense.

At a speed of M = 2.5, there can be no talk of any cruising speed - a substitution of concepts.

They argue whether the plane can
keep stable supersonic speed (and which one) in a long horizontal flight without using an afterburner.

if you take into account how much time it takes, it turns out that without an afterburner, the f-35 can fly on supersonic, but only turning it off for 2 minutes - according to Stephen.
it’s about the same as dialing 120 mph by car, letting go of the gas pedal and say - look, I have 120 on my neutral car for a while.
in my opinion, this could be done by our fighter mig-21 and their phantom about 30 years ago.

52 km at combat cruising speed

That is, he flew at this speed only 52 km. And then all this was counted in a super-duper.

By this time OKB S.K. Tumansky gave permission to increase the engine operating time in full mode from 3 minutes to 8, and then to 40. This made it possible to carry out almost all flights without restrictions and at maximum speed. After a few minutes, the MiG-25 gained speed M = 2,5 and entered the route. The flights took place at full engine operation, maximum speed and altitude of 17-23 km, which was the only means of protection for the unarmed reconnaissance. Nobody really could keep up with him.

And there are options for the engine - it is possible that the P79-300 variant with a direct nozzle is at the core. This engine with a rotary nozzle is designed for the Yak-41.

Considering its origin from 1.44 and "modern" technologies that stick out of all the cracks (look at least at the drives of mechanization and their dimensions - for specialists, all these details just hit the eye).

To the TR-3B Astra he is still far away.

Well, what other news from the publication of the Chinese "hurray-patriots" can there be?

[Wanderer1975]

2,5 Mach cruising speed? Weakly believe in this, they launch the duck to feel the reaction of the public.

"writes the Chinese edition of Sohu" - translated into Russian, it is, "Scribbled on the Chinese fence .."
-
Su-57
at subsonic cruising speed:
with 63% of fuel - 2700 km.
with 100% fuel - 4300 km.
with 2 PTB (outboard fuel tank) - 5500 km.
at supersonic cruising (afterburning) speed:
with 63% of fuel - 1200 km.
with 100% fuel - 2000 km.

Another dullness record was struck.

Trump does the right thing to tax the Chinese. Assign alien supertechnologies. I should be ashamed to be decent Chinese.

Nu-nu ... And the engine resource is many times better than Amers and Russian?

Quote: Piramidon

Cruising speed means the speed of the aircraft, achieved at the lowest fuel consumption to overcome the maximum distance in a minimum unit of time. How is this possible with afterburner?

In principle, this is possible, and was successfully implemented on the MiG-25. His cruising speed (precisely to achieve maximum flight range) was using afterburner. Regarding the Chinese, is in doubt.

it would be interesting to know the resource. I personally do not believe that China can create its full 10th generation aircraft in 20-5 years. By the way, the size of their j-20 is reminiscent of some small bomber. Very large glider for a fighter.
I don’t believe in their AFAR technology, I don’t believe that their engines have a standard resource, I don’t believe in such a supersonic. those. he may be like that, but he is sure that it is achieved due to some other indicators. A country that is developing its 5th generation la should not purchase a 4th generation la in order to receive technology. This suggests that they do not have their own technologies for the 4th generation. this is how to create immediately after the onion ak-47. This does not happen.

And what resource does the glider have at such speeds?

[Ivan Stereotypeov]

These characteristics are not possible. Our Su has 57 PAK FA, which sacrificed part of the stealth technology for the sake of improving dynamic qualities (speed up to Mach 2,45 and super-maneuverability (even without taking into account OVT)) Max. The speed is lower than the J 20 declared as "cruising". The J 20 does not have the best flight characteristics + an important element - the DSI - the air intake (which cuts the aircraft speed to subsonic, or low supersonic) ... So the characteristics are fake. I do not believe.
