Series production of the fifth generation fighter J-20B started in China

The fifth generation Chinese fighter (4th generation according to Chinese nomenclature) "went into series." According to the portal businessinsider.com, in China, mass production of a modified version of the Chengdu J-20 fighter has begun.

According to the portal, serial production of the new fifth-generation fighter began last week. Last fall, Chinese media reported the construction of three production lines for the assembly of the J-20 fighter. It was noted that two of them will mainly produce equipment for the J-20, equipped with the Russian AL-31F engine, and one - J-20 with a Chinese-developed Xian WS-15 power plant. How things are currently unknown, it is possible that everything is done the other way around.



It is noted that the J-20B fighter differs from the first version of the J-20 primarily in the engine with a controlled thrust vector.

The J-20 fighter was developed by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation and is positioned as a fifth generation fighter (fourth in the Chinese nomenclature), created using stealth technology. There are no details of this development, all data about the aircraft is classified.

The first flight of the prototype J-20 took place in 2011, the official demonstration - at the air show in Zhuhai in 2016. In 2018, it announced the adoption of the J-20 in service with the PLA Air Force.

International experts note that the Chinese fighter in fact, most likely, does not reach the point that it belongs to the full fifth generation. However, these judgments may be incorrect, since there is no detailed information about the characteristics of the Chinese fighter.

      The pace is envy and fear at the same time.
      Only the Chinese engine is doubtful, but given the rapid growth of their technology, there is no doubt that they will finalize it.

        Well, this cannot be taken away, the same Y-20s will be riveted twice as many as Ilov-476 (Il-76MD-90A) next year, despite the fact that the Y-20 flew later and for China it is a completely new plane, not an upgrade of the old one .

        I doubt that China will succeed in finalizing the engine in the near future! You can’t copy and assemble it, it’s for many years, decades of painstaking work, but now China has a copy of our engines, but their resource is many times lower than the original, so Beijing has yet to develop and assemble its own jet engine!

          and why did you decide that they just now began to modify the engines? they have been working on this topic for more than a dozen years, so it is quite possible that in the near future they will have their own suitable engine for fighters, if not already ..

          Well, it will be decided sooner or later. Soviet engines in the 60-70s also had a much lower resource than in the west. And put up with it. Gradually increasing not only the primary indicators, but also operational qualities.

          Also in China. They have both technology and money and specialists to solve problems in engine building. It only takes time, experience and experience. I think that in this they have already passed most of the way, for the state has been actively working in this direction since the beginning of the 00s.

                  Or assembled, but the buildings in Russia are doing something else - in China, in fact, the same foreign factories are foreign equipment and Chinese replicas with hybridization - this J 20 is the same in fact a replica - and even with Russian engines.

          Excuse me if I write a not popular idea now. Why all of a sudden, you decided that the Chinese army is capable of fighting the Russian army. When was the last time the Chinese had a normal clash? Remembering the story, the Korean War. And now, remembering the losses of that time, they are trying not to bring to a military conflict. An example is the recent turmoil with India. They pulled the troops to the border, a week later began to transfer back. And about engines, relatively recently they brought up to 2000 hours the engine resource installed on the F-7. On the FC-1 is our AL-31F.

                  As far as I remember, I read here on the article about the most bloody war in the history of mankind. She was civil in China, either in the 6th or in the 7th century. At least 60 million died, i.e. 2/3 of the population. And nothing, again hundreds of millions were born! The Chinese have never considered their lives, and they don’t consider strangers as people. There will be genocide, without any worries. Humanity is not Chinese, they do not understand it.

                      When the Japanese captured Manjuria, China was in a deep crisis. He retreated in all developed countries. This entity was a short period in ego history. But China regained its status - the forge of the world. Can you imagine that Japan might challenge China? Me not.

                          Japan took the path of technological development much earlier, so she sang ahead of China. But if we look at today's China, and what it was 30 years ago, I think everything will become clear ... I won’t be surprised if in 10 years, China will be ahead of the rest and with a lot of technology, despite the skepticism of the members of the forum. They simply do not know that this was not so long ago by historical standards.
                          And just as viewed in a historical context, Japan is a much more belligerent country, able to fight unlike China itself.

                          Mentality tends to change, especially after major upheavals. The current Japanese man bears little resemblance to his warlike ancestors. He is peaceful, non-aggressive, loved life and amusement. It became clear to him that if he worked hard, he would get a much better life than if he fought and cut his head. It is the same with the Germans. For 80 years "re-education" nothing remained of their experienced war.

                  Yes, there are all sorts of Mongols, Manjuris, etc. You are not going to conquer China, and no one is going to. But the Chinese are slowly infiltrating in the world, creating their own states in the states. Such a creeping ethno-economic invasion! They form a very influential diaspora with tremendous financial resources and influence, the fifth column of the type! In Russia, as far as I know, by 2050 they will become the second largest ethnic group! There is no accurate data on how many Chinese live in other countries. The numbers range from 50 million to 100 million. In the United States, in 2013 alone, 2 million passed. And they are not being assimilated anywhere!

                        So, that is all the lyrics about the fact that for the Chinese the century is like a day. They are likely to unleash another civil war within the country rather than achieve any major successes in the international arena.

                China is lucky in this regard, they have huge human reserves and a poorly developed service sector compared to the US and EU markets, and if there is simply nowhere to develop in the West, then China and India are the future, especially China. By the way, on the Internet, there is a chart from Goldman Sachs "The Ten Largest Economies in the World by 2050" and there China's GDP by 2050 is predicted to be almost 2 times higher than the US GDP, of course there will be adjustments with the coronavirus and trade wars, but the trend itself will not change - huge population + development of the service sector, will do their job.

        And now we look at the picture of the belly and laugh loudly and for a long time, because China is just trying to build an analogue of the F-22 from the 80s. The Chinese cannot make a multifunctional aircraft, and stealth is needed first of all for this, with the placement of large-sized ASPs in the fuselage, either in materials science, or because of the engines. And most likely both. It's not funny about the "duck" on stealth at all, this scheme was fashionable in the 80s, but the same Su-57 has much more functional deflectable wing tips, which also shows the level of development of the EDSU, which successfully steers a huge amount control surfaces.

      Most likely, this machine is not so much a fighter as a "multipurpose aircraft", but in terms of characteristics it is inferior to both the Su-57 and the F-35 / F-22, in some characteristics, however (not in key ones) it has the best parameters. The fact that the Chinese are still not confident in their engine to the end, and the fact that they systematically burns with our super-maneuverability, most likely indicates the insufficient speed-maneuverability side of the characteristics of their aircraft, not on paper but "in metal." Childhood diseases, everything.
      I think that China has bypassed us somewhat in terms of EPR reduction and coverage, but they are still far from US success. In the matter of intelligence, fillings are also, most likely, inferior to us in most devices, bypassing on the other hand in the microelectronic component.
      I have no reason to believe that their plane will become something revolutionary or an effective workhorse - but this plane can well be a key milestone on the path to China’s ability to create a breakthrough product that effectively combines Russian / Western experience with the experience of China itself.

      So, after testing the F-35B with a short take-off and vertical landing, it became clear that the fighter will withstand only 2100 flight hours instead of the estimated 8000.
      The cost of one F-35B amounted to $ 100 million. Due to such an unexpectedly short service life, it will be necessary to write off some of the aircraft already in 2026,

      I'm not Chinese either soldier It’s probably better to ask the Chinese what their new airplane is called, and even in Russian hi

      almost everything Chinese surrounds you at home, how does reliability suit you? I’m completely, the electronics are at the Sony and Samsung level, although 15-20 years ago I wasn’t around. Do you catch analogies?

      Chinese quality ??? No, I have not. What they say from the rostrum and what is in fact NOT ONE AND THE SAME. Yes, my phone is made in China, but the Alcatel brand is French and NOT CHINESE developed it, they just take phones made by French robots off the assembly line and put them in boxes. It's the same with EVERYTHING. Chinese aircraft of the 555th generation on a Russian engine - this is the scope of Chinese thought ??? What did the Chinese do themselves ??? Give examples, please.

      Underestimate the development of aviation in China, only dumb-headed hat-takers who do not have a normal technical education. China has long taken the lead. Its some lag in the engines for military aircraft will be very quickly overcome. He already has a powerful industry and personnel. Have money. And there is a leadership of the country of the CCP, which consists of Chinese and for their country to do everything necessary for development. This is not a cooperative for you. A lake capable of just stealing and robbing. In the coming years, China will completely abandon borrowing technical solutions in Russia because they are already ahead.

        Just for reference, the USSR lagged behind the US in engines in 1945 and was only able to approach the American level in the 80s. At the same time, the USSR invested such funds in the development of aviation, which modern China never dreamed of. So the Chinese have no chances to reach even the level of AL-41F in engines. As there is no plane that could be compared with the Su-57. At the same time, it would have been possible to launch the Su-57 into production a couple of years earlier, by a strong-willed decision, they would have simply raked up more problems on production vehicles. And for those who do not like the Lake Cooperative and fans of the CCP, I would like to inform you that China is currently the leader in the number of billionaires. And all the Chinese growth over the past 30 years is only the result of the transfer of Western industry to it, now the fat China is beginning to spread rot.

      And what did the J-20 become at least comparable to the Su-35?
