Zhuhai Airshow 13th Edition - September 28, 2021 to 3rd October, 2021

[Figaro]

Look on the bright side. By 2022:

1) They’ll definitely show J-20/J-10C with domestic engines. Possibly even WS-15
2) Next gen naval fighter might be ready
3) H-20 might make a surprise flyby

There is almost no way the H-20 would be in service by 2022 ... I really don't see the PLAAF flying a prototype of such a high level strategic project at Zhuhai.

China's biggest airshow to go ahead as originally planned - event organizer

China's International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition, the country's biggest airshow, will go ahead in November, the organizer said on Wednesday, backtracking on an earlier announcement the 2020 event had been canceled due to COVID-19.

J-10B TVC wasn’t in service either. Neither was the FC-31.

But the H-20 is much more sensitive though ... like the J-20. We never saw the J-20 until the 2016 Zhuhai show after all.

Airshow China 2020 cancellation, what really happened – Alert 5

So, the conclusion is Zhuhai City local government wants to cancel the Airshow. Because too much responsibility something might go wrong with the pandemic still in full force in other countries.

But they still need approval from the higher levels of the government to officially cancel the Airshow. I think they will announce the cancellation soon from the look of it. Don't think anyone in the government wants to be hold responsible for the disaster if a big spreader event happen in Zhuhai during the airshow. I'm a little disappointed but understandable if they do cancel it.

I was hoping we would get something more about the WS-15 or the WS-10 at the very least. Waiting till 2022 is definitely a big disappointment.

Maybe delay another month only to December.

Maybe delay another month only to December.

Maybe, but given how the infection numbers are rising worldwide I cannot think that China has any interest to re-import that virus.
