Is it the same paint pattern for jets within the same squadron?A bigger version.
J-20 5th Gen Fighter Thread VIII
- Thread starter Blitzo
- Start date
As it seems, we likely have another J-20 unit confirmed, namely the 43rd Air Brigade based at Datong-Huairen, a former J-10A unit.
And even if the unit itself isn't mentioned, the unit nicknamed "雁门天虎" (Yanmen Tianhu) is the 43rd Air Brigade!

Would be interesting to know if these are J-20A - and as such the first confirmed frontline unit flying this latest variant - or still J-20?

I don't see how this confirms they have switched to J-20? Guancha specifically mentioned once this unit is unlikely to get anything good in the near future.
I agree, but this could be a hint (even if it looks a lot like a mock-up only)?!

Crosspost from the UCAV/CCA thread:
As far as I remember this is indeed the first time we See a video of both a J-20 and a GJ-11 UCAV flying together. Seen here on final approach for landing.

My point was, it was the first "VIDEO"!
Technically, that picture is also from a video where all three aircraft were flying together in movement, here, at 21:45 :
I suppose one could say that post you made is the first video seeing a J-20 and a GJ-11 landing in close succession to each other,
Yes, but it was only a very brief moment!
By the way, do we have an idea where this video was taken?
