My image was a bit compressed. Here’s another one with less compression and higher contrast. One can see a different door outline. All these fan made drawings also noted the second weapons bay. A hint of a missile can also be seen in those smaller bays, in the original image. Here i unforunetely drew that blue line over it.

Anyway, another peculiar issue is the main weapons bay. it is just too huge, really. Even if we scale the whole plane to just 23 or so meters (4 meter long aam bays) the main weapons bay seems to be almost 7,5 meters long. Ratio of main weapons bay length and length of the whole plane is really so huge that i can’t think of a single plane that had a similar ratio.

Unless i’m looking at it the wrong way and the bay doors aren’t that long. There is really no need for such long weapon bay, it is too long even for cj10 class cruise missiles. One could of course assume there are twin longitudinal bays but that’s again too large, that’s suggest a 45 meter long plane, far heavier than even H6. 7 meters would be more than enough for both cruise missiles and a large antiship missile. I don’t believe yj12 is 6-7 meters long, but even if it it, it’d still fit. And two would still fit, and it’s unlikely the bay is narrow. On the contrary, precisely because of the whole layout of the plan and top mounted intakes, the width of the weapon bays may be be quite significant, more so than on j20, for example.

Another peculiar thing is that with such a slender layout and such a huge portion of internal space being taken by weapon bays – fuel allowance may be quite miniscule.

you have a reasonable analysis unlike the other fan fans. regardless, i think this is something that Russia should be interested in acquiring.

Thobbit,
I agree.
in fact high viz markings will have another added benefit

It can glamourize aircraft, creating further interest from the public to support the military. something thats an issue in Europa.

OR

the military can start selling ad space on the planes to generate further revenues, something that’s also an issue in cut cut cut Europa.

for example if they sold ad space to a video game company..

1, that’s iran
2, pakistan really needs a bomber of this size?
3, that’s iran

forgive me if you’re just being facetious.

1. Iran and what about it? are you saying Iran can’t do joint projects with China like Pakistan?
FYI, Iran has a more developed aerospace industry than Pakistan’s and more engineers.
2. Yes Pakistan does. stealth bomber that can drop Pakistani nuclear bombs would be a welcome deterrent. but Pakistan is po’ see.. so its China’s job as a good friend to subsidize the purchase for Pakistan.
3. Yes that’s a model in Iran, got a problem? stop being racist against Iran. They have a long history and a culture and civilization that is even older than China’s

could super hornet land on Fock?

yes I think it has DSI.
i think this is a UCAV.
the supposed cockpit is actually the DSI bump
