This CCTV capture confirms that at least one of the three Ukrainian IL-78 Midas air refueling tankers is operational. Still, the overall PLAAF tanker fleet is fairly small, consists of an additional 12 H-6U (H-6 mod). This small fleet is capable of supporting a limited set of air operations but not a sustained campaign.

The poor China, bought many 2nd-hand IL-76 from Russia and IL-78 from Ukraine to increase PLAAF's tanker fleet ... the only solution is building more Y-20 in China

A new Y-20 take off

WS-18, uprated thrust license production of D-30KP2 engine

Engine is not a problem for Y-20 since we no need to ferry 65tons tank monster around. Out heaviest tank is only 54tons.
