Oh... I am sorry...
I don't know this is wrong, please forgive me

把你前面发的漫画也删了吧

Of course the flight would take place with Robert Gates 2nd day visit..

-BTW Congrats, a Video would be appreciated.

Probably not solely for Gate's benefit. We Chinese have a thing about major events and numbers (remember the Olympics? 8:08 08/08/2008)

don't underestimate the US. the J-20 is not nearly enough. we need at least 1000 J-20s, 10000 nuclear missiles, 10 carriers and 200 nuclear submarines for minimal deterrance against the US. after all those who underestimate the US are doomed to the trashbin of history!

-More like 2000 J-20s, the U.S is inducting 2,443 F-35 Lightning II Fighter Variant Fighter Jets, into their respectful 3 Armed forces, ARMY, NAVY and AirForce, because were phasing out the F-16 by 2020..

With no VIP appear in this "important" flight, to be hornest, I begin to doubt that this is the first flight. It could be the first public flight.

感谢巴基斯坦的铁杆朋友对J-20的关注，今天看到“丝带”收费的消息后非常激动，人一激动，从没到过巴基斯坦的我就从网上过来了。我现在无法表达我激动的心情，我思维非常混乱！！！我只想说J-20 V5，中国 V5, 巴铁 V5!!

Signing off guys.

Have a Nice good day!

Jan 11th is apparently the Showing off Muscle day in China.

 

[ZhengHe]

Well done China.

Hopefully this prototype will be complete soon so they can be rolled out by 1000's.

 

[Awesome]

Congratulations to China!

Yeah that was beautiful, the Beijing Olympics happened on 8/8/08. Now we've got 11/1/11.

Actually, car license plates with "lucky numbers" get sold for ridiculous amounts of money in HK.

The license plate with the number "18" was sold for more than sixteen million Hong Kong dollars. Personally I think it's a huge waste of money though.

J20 conducts its first flight today in a cloudy and icy day instead of a good weather day in the past week.It seems to want to show it to Mr Gates during his visit in china?

J-20 will further promote the friendship between China and Pakistan
