I am not going to list suggestins for this one.

What color is this H6 bomber. (beautiful piece of Soviet engineering)

:eek::eek:

:eagerness::applause:

PS:

Some rumors flying around in Chinese language fora. According to the translations, initially they thought the J-11D has been cancelled. But now it seems it is not cancelled but delayed to 2018 or may 2019. Looks like the 24x Su-35 are not the end of the story. According to one speculation the number might increase to 96!!! In-terms of new fighters of the PLAAF, J-20 is strictly to deal with the F-22/F-35 type threats. Su-35 is the heavy multirole fighter encompassing many areas for the PLAAF. J-16 for attack and growler type roles. The J-10C will be the main medium fighter. There is an active J-10D project. J-11B will be getting AESA and other avionic upgrades.

So the immediate future of the PLAAF in terms of new fighters is going to be – J-20, Su-35, J-16, J-10B/10C

That’s a juicy rumor.. There was word of 48 copies at the start of negotiations way back when.. Maybe they really like the new su 35.

Yes the light grey and dark grey colors are taken from those H-6 resp. J-20 photos. Clearly they’re exactly the same as white and dark green.

Are you calling those J 10’s dark grey ?

What’s this J-16 then ?

You guys are indeed funny !!!

Are still convinced that it is a dark-white on the body and a light-white on the tip ??

… and concerning “GREEN” … the colour on the C919’s tail is what I would call green.

As I already said, in the world of light grey military aircraft, the H6K is comparatively white. If you were at any airport full of grey aircraft and your sons soccer ball rolled under an H6, you would tell him that his soccer ball is under the *white* jet over there. You would not say grey.

These J10’s are light grey.

It’s really funny that You still prefer to repost older reports regardless how dated and probably wrong they are instead of looking and thinking on Your own.

IMO this whole stupid – or at least completely sense-less – discussion is more on semantics and individual perception but on facts. The J-20’s colour esp. on the 2001 & 2002 demonstrators is indeed unique and depending the image You pick up it is indeed a bit greenish (maybe olive), dark grey, charcoal or whatever. But again it is more a matter of light than that the colour is true green like grass ! 🙂

The H-6 however is at least IMO clearly light-grey with white tail-tips.

And as I said..

There are many shades of grey military aircraft out there. And these greys are quite common. It makes more categorical sense to call the H6 white because it is way more distinctly light than typical light grey aircraft. Plus language is the most effective as it gets simpler and more efficient. So rather than say light-grey it is faster to say or type white.

So yeah. I suppose it is technically a very light grey. Take a bow. And there has to be a point where a certain shade brings a color from grey to white. But I am going to keep calling it white because it makes the most sense to call it white. And if your kids soccer ball rolled underneath a parked H6, and your kid asked you where his ball went, you’d probably say, under the *white* jet over there.

Even more on the H-6, their tail tip is white and You can clearly see the difference to the rest of the body, which is grey.

Off white vs gloss white would show the same contrast (tail tip) Just b/c off white is darker than gloss does not make it grey

If that image really looks dark green to you I think it may be of interest for you to consult an optometrist or an ophthalmologist.

Its not easy to see but its green. It is not us that need to get our eyes checked. Its you.

Plus I posted the model J 20 kit on Amazon that is listed as dark green
