At least better than the 3 winged design u posted. Though the localized detais are not there. Anyway, it will feature ur favorite Caret instead of DSI. And internal bay , S-duct of course

are there really sanctions on SAC? is there really a J-11B IP issue? some members here think there isn’t one 😉

but you’re right, the WS-10 on J-11s could simply mean that its not an issue of production capacity, but that CAC is pleased with the AL-31FN in its J-10 and currently has no intention of adopting the WS-10 yet.

lol, u think first deputy head of the Federal Military-Technical Cooperation Service is a member here ?:D

Russians no issue with IP doesn’t mean they are happy with J11b, the policy is Russia only export kits, engine being part of it, instead of individual component. So newly produced j11bs come with no Russia engine because of this. However, those early J11s built from Russia kits, will still have Russia engine support including the new replacement engine. Is that clear enough?

No, it is not based on the failed J-20 proposal, the faile proposal is an three-winged fighter, while now they get a pure conventinal layout with a pair of large leading edges.

The failed proposal is design by an very big old academic bully at SAC, he is a fellow of China academy and leading scientist at SAC, and he and his students who take senior positions at 601th insistute is the exact reason why SAC cannot come up with any new designs.

SAC’s current proposal is based on eariler proposal of J-20, which have been rejected by the bully, in favor of his own weird design.

Blizer doesn’t make it wrong, the J16 is based on or derived from one of failed Jxx bid, 3- winged design being another Jxx proposal submitted by SAC then. As we know, the 3 wing design lost to CAC’s design which is now J20.

The J16 will take the strike role to replace Su30, jh7. It will be more ready to be shipborne than J20 and J15 will serve just as a stopgap shipborne fighter.

It will be less sophisticated than J20, but could be more multipopose than the latter. Cheaper is of course. Because it’s more conventional, though it flies later , it can enter service even earlier than J20.

Since both of you are Chinese, would you mind accomplish your accordance before post here?

I don’t c latenlazy needs address any accordance, frankly speaking.
Also, can understand Chinese doesn’t necessarily mean he is Chinese

You must know how to appreciate Over-g’s humor in his way :p. Though he sometimes does hide some gems in the comments.

At least ppl have built scale down models of J20 based on various images available, and sent the models for various microwave tests. It’s more than just see n say only.
