The current engine is either a local WS-10G or 117S from Russia. Later on it will be replaced by WS-15, producing about 15 to 18 tons of thrust each.J 20 is a bigger machine as compare to other two fighters so what engine will it be using to get enough thrust
Judging from its size and length, I think it would be safe to say the internal weapon bay is likely to be larger than F-22 and T-50. On the downside, the PL-12(SD-10) missile is longer than both AIM-120 and R-77.Can this bird carry more weapons then F22 and T50??????????????????
No it will be not..its frontal aspect stealth is ruined due to presence of Canards and as far rear aspect is concerned presence of conventional engine outlets ruins it too.
Thought T-50 has clean frontal aspect it does not have S-shaped air intakes(and we are not sure..if J-20 has has them) but from the rear T-50 is equally bad.
Conclusion- F-22 beats them both in stealthiness.
time for some learning for me.. just the basics if you will
why having canards is bad?
how does it increase its radar signature. When it has a relatively small size and if has the same RAM coating and shape uniform to the rest of the craft?
Does that make SU-37 Terminator and Euro-fighter bad as well? why do they have canards? If canards help in sharp turns & other swift manoeuvres then whats wrong with that?
Surely canards cant be as bad as having open weapon bays? Secondly how does an F22 compare without canards?
Does it have something in addition which basically means it can do without canards?
Finally does it suggest that Chinese had a design/ technical barrier which meant that canards were the only (cheap/ easy) option to provide whatever performance benchmarks were set while designing this craft?
Does F-22 raptor have RCS (reaction control system) like space shuttle? Where the nose can be nudged right and left? If there are any jets on the face of the raptor then maybe I am too old notice them.
Finally a laymans view
Looking at the J-20 side by side with say T-50 or raptor it is clear that the designers have gone for a trade off between how much they wish their J-20 to be and what technical & knowledge base they have in addition to the resources. It is hard to match with America which spends about the same or more on its military power than the whole world combined.
What say you?
Yes but Russians are saying we can see more changes, even air frame, in the second prototype. Just waiting to see the second T-50
If the Russians want to implement all aspect LO capability to their aircraft, they need to flatten that bottom or it's going to be a major source of signal return.to be honest. i like j-20 from front and side views.. but PAK-fA looks better on the top and bottom views.
But F_22 takes the overall sexy look price.
will post some pics and videos herefrom
