Has the JL-10 been the only trainer on display this year?
No, there is also a FTC-2000

They made the mockup able to open and close the canopy... They going to let people get in it?
Isn't this just some meme plane made by 3rd parties promoting their design work at the airshow?
It’s not a serious fighter model seriously these are planes from nantianmen project. A science fiction verse meant for entertainment and increase engagement with civilians for aerospace. This is not a ‘6th gen’ mockup.
Broke: Govt propaganda is corny motivational posters.
Woke: Govt propaganda is fanverse and anime.

Never said or took it seriously. I was just pointing out they bothered to make the canopy go up and down for just a mock-up.
I know you're probably joking, but considering the bulkhead of the radome is canted like that, there is no way for a repositioner or swashplate setup to be installed, and that's by design.
If the bulkhead of the radome was vertical, then a repositioner/swashplate could work
True or just PR, that is a beautiful aircraft.
