Whoever created that PSed fake of the J-20 JXX needs….

to be punished in some way or another. No one should play such tricks on us !!! And such trickery simply just makes me extremely angry 😡 Any way, when the aircraft becomes more clear to us with better resolution photos, if what reports are to believed at all from eyewitnesses, we are in for a very pleasant treat with the J-20 Chinese stealth fighter. And just for the record, I really, really hate photoshop and those that practice such BS.

Dieno is correct in his opinions and I agree with him

Here is the latest photo of the J-20 during its high speed taxi runs at Chengdu 611. Some may doubt that it is a real image of the J-20 but IMHO it is real enough. So the photos are getting better and better. The J-20 prototype appears to have its nose landing gear lifted off the runway. And it is some angled to the camera (angle of the J-20 on the runway and the angle the photographer is viewing the aircraft). The aircraft is painted dark green and has the number “35” on the forward fuselage. The aircraft is a little longer than I expected though, but it is after all a heavy-weight fighter. Some viewers and observers claim that it does have side DSI air intakes and the vertical tails are all-moving type. :rolleyes:

IMVHO, given on how the red star is located, seems that there are not rudders over that surface, making me thinking that the whole tail is a control surface.

There seems no indication of a conventional tail as well

You are correct to assume that the vertical tails are all-moving control surfaces Over-G. And the particular red star on the vertical fin might look similar to a Russian red star (even that has changed now), it is a Chinese red star with “Gate of Heavenly Peace” symbol marked in its center in yellow. Everything is changing these days, it would appear. And when I said that the canards move independent of each they operate differentially – just like conventional horizontal tailplanes.
🙂 And I hope that I do not stray too far off-topic, but since the J-20 has finally appeared to us, when will the huge Y-20 heavy transport make its appearance??

Agreed … but I have the bad feeling that this wi happen when I’m in the Winter-hollydays with the family … no internet … for one week !!!!! 😮

Deino

Surely you can get access to a pc to get onto the internet(?) But in the meantime Deino have a wonderful time with your family during the holldays. It might also depend on how long you and family will be taking hollyday. The J-20 might not fly until the first or second week of January, 2011. Or it could co-incide with the first flight of the Sukhoi T-50 second prototype. By all reports the number two T-50 differs significantly from number one prototype – or so it has been reported.

More leaked images of the J-20 on December 22, 2010

Can someone please process these images? Or at least check them for photoshop? I believe the last image (of wind tunnel model I have already posted in this thread:confused:). The prototype J-20 (number 2001) making high speed taxi runs on 22 December 2010. The source is http://lt.cjdby.net/thread-1034817-2-1.html
😎
Oh yes and by the way, I wish everyone here on this forum a very Happy XMas and a Happy New Year in 2011

No match in shape to the real J-20 with this wind tunnel model

There is no match here with the real J-20 (no match with this model any way) J-7 Hotdog – really there isn’t; IMHO. :rolleyes:

Haha, yeah I too imediately thought of F-111 when I saw it! But afte a while it looked more F-117-Flankerish than F-117-F-111ish to me. Anyways interesting that we got the same impression of it.

edit: That tail fin looks giganormus. Tornado and Yak-130 would will run off with the tail between their legs -totaly humiliated- if ever confronted by this mysterious stranger.
edit II: Just looked realy close at the pic in Photo Shop, and nothing IMHO even slightly suggests it has been temperd with. Perhaps it is the real thing after all… (If not a modified H-6 bomber shot from a weird angle, that is).

All I can see – with this poor resolution photo – are twin vertical fins canted inward. And they are not anywhere near as large as that of the Tornado nor L-15
:D:
