Sorry my friend !

But posting reports from WantChinaTimes and insisting on such strange ideas like You posted more than once here in the Forum is the main reason, why no-one takes You seriously !

WCT is simply a piece of BS … just look at this report:

… and there are many more.

I really do not understand why so many peoples so often quote that site … it’s from Taiwan and sensationalist.

@Deino, I think the figures given by the VT estimates are high, but I used their figures (78m^2, 34,000 kg), because they’re Western and they look like a high estimate so they’re less likely to be disputed. For instance, the F-22 supposedly has 4200 kg of Titanium, the J-20 is about the same length * wingspan as the F-22, and the J-20’s designers claim that 3D printed titanium reduced the weight of titanium by 40%. The F-22 is about 19200 kg empty, taking off about 1800 gives you about 18000 kg, which is 500 kg lighter than the VT estimate, and honestly I would not be surprised if the J-20 were 17500 kg.

Besides, I’m more likely to be on your ignore list; you always scream at me for taking threads off topic at CDF and SDF when I try to talk about the J-20’s shortcomings.

Thanks for Your kind reply ! … and NO, You are surely not on my ignorer list; it’s always good to get a different opinion even if it does not fit the own one !

…Here is the aircraft with the corrected fuel ratios I’ve explained, and their T/W, wing loading and their thrust/wing area ratio.

May I ask where are these figures for the J-20 from ???
