J 20 Stealth Fighter

Wednesday, January 5, 2011
The rumor on the web today is all about the leak of photos new military toys from China, the J-20 Stealth Fighter. Military observers and fans in China are fascinated by the J-20 and I wanted more information.

 
Hard information is difficult to achieve because there are contradictory reports about China, what could be the fifth generation fighter Prime countries are available. That's what we know about the new stealth aircraft:

 
1. It is still in the testing phase
 
The J-20 prototype was tested today, apparently on a runway in central China. It is not tested in the air, but observers believe it could happen before - maybe even on Thursday.

 
2. China seems to want to, I know
 
Photos should show the J-20 appears to be a leak of some Chinese media this week, either by the authorities or by persons in secret could be seen on the plane. But it hardly seems a coincidence that this new visit, just before U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates in Beijing, which begins on Sunday.

 
3. It takes years before it is operational
 
This is only the first J-20, and perhaps say a long time before work Kinks and others, the skeptics. Some even believe the plan is shown in the pictures is a model. It could be 2018 or even later, before the aircraft is ready to be used.

 
4. Is larger than U. S. Stealth Aircraft
 
From the photos it appears that the J-20 can be greater than U.S. Stealth aircraft. Some speculate that he fly more and longer. But that may not be able to compete with the F-22 Raptor, the U.S. aircraft of the fifth generation stealth.

 
5. It is part of the new army of China
 
The country seems to have major investments in new military equipment have to stay so he can compete with the United States and Russia. According to reports, China has an aircraft carrier in the works and is also developing anti-ship missiles.
