Rumoured Projects & Likelihood Thereof

I feel like we should probably add abit more detail, Tiltrotor transport is rather general now that we know China probably is working on multiple types of tiltrotor for both civilian and military uses(Personally I'm rather interested in the quad tiltrotor they are working on). Also probably have to add that Compound Coax rotor helicopter.
Agreed
That would be the AVIC AHL, which is already in the list.
Rumored projects:
H-20 - 5PLANMC VTOL fighter - 4
Navalized J-XDS - 4
C-5/An-124 class transport - 3
Stealth Helicopter - 2
An-225 class transport - 1
AVIC AHL - 4
Y-30 - 4
JH-XX - 1
Hypersonic air breathing recon drone - 2
PL-17B/Next gen ULRAAM - 3
PL-21 - 2
Exclusive to stealth aircraft long range AAM - 3
C919 based special mission aircraft - 2
Ultra heavy AEWC - 1
Carrier based transport aircraft - 4
Unexpected confirmed projects:
Compound helicopterUnmanned air dominance aircraft
Long range air launched ballistic missile
What about the rumored quad tricopter heli? Should that be its own thing?
That's civilian, also I doubt the airforce would want it anyways. It's more likely for the army to procure it.
