What hell is that ... Damn these Chinese and am again starting to hate DRDO ADA :(

Should be short take off and high altitude plane ... But it's more like C130 J or below C17 .

Y-19 = Y-9 = development of Y8 = Chinese copy of the An-12 Cub?
Chinese officials have also mentioned plans for a transport between the Y-20 and Y-30 in size. This appears to be the Y-19. The engine of the Y-19 is reportedly the WJ-10 of 5,000 kW, though that power would suggest a gross weight of perhaps only 110 tons, or less if high performance is wanted. Again, turbofan propulsion has ben considered and may still be under study, because officials say the program has not been launched.
Since the air force cannot urgently need three new airlifters—one of 80 tons, one of more than 200 tons and another in between—the Y-19 and Y-30 may compete for funding.

CGIs aside, here are a few screenshots from a publication detailling a recent student-based competition for a notional stealth transport concept:

Since no transport will be sent anywhere if air superiority hasn't been achieved (at least locally), why on earth would you need a stealth transport....?
