By the way, an interesting detail, the Z-21 follows the Z-20-naval variants numbering system, namely no. 62TP with T standing for type or variant and P for individual prototype.

Z-20J as the first major variant with 621X: at least 4 prototypes are known (

However since the original Army Z-20 use a simpler system based on 63P (with so far at least likely 5 prototypes built (631 unconfirmed),

That AI enhanced image of Z-21 is genuinely cancer. I almost feel like we should make it a rule for SDF that if one posts an AI enhanced image, that it needs to have a watermark overlaying it with a warning saying it is "AI enhanced" so people don't get misled.

An interesting AI-enhanced version ... In fact I‘m surprised this is already doable!

This is extremely poorly done as it completely changes the canopy structure into something akin to the Apache and Z-19, unlike what it is actually shaped as. This is why AI should not be used to "enhance" images, fake images like these will encourage more
"Apache copy" rhetoric than there already is.
