Nada, Y-9 is a copy (chinese answer) to the Russian An-12 which was the answer in the 1960s to the American C-130.
Now much time has flown.

Y-8 is answer to C-130.

Y-9 is answer to C-130J

Lets see some picture

Y-9 will be important for fast reaction deployment units until Y-20 enter service.

Y-9 cargo bay is not as low as I thought but cargo is quite narrow.
