China's transport, tanker & heavy lift aircraft - esp. Y-20/YY-20
- Thread starter Totoro
- Start date
So 2 new YY-20As seen this week? What's the new total?
In fact I still don‘t know how many were initially delivered with different numbers …
Even more important - and in my opinion a mayor surprise - the first tanker within the 4th Transport Division.

have we seen a operational YY-20B?
so a Y-20 refuelling tanker with indigenous WS20 engine
so a Y-20 refuelling tanker with indigenous WS20 engine
As it seems, all Bs are in fact MRTT they just don’t have their IRF pods attached.
Dou you think YY-20B will have boom and drogue like KC-46?
At least that‘s my preferred theory at the moment.
A Y-20B first time seen with her cargo bay doors open in flight.
Now on Twitter for easier viewing.
Now waiting for the same footages from the Y-20B - Or better yet, Y-20B deploying her WS-20's thrust reversers while in flight (if the Y-20 and WS-20 do come with such feature).
