The 200 tonne transport plane-Y-20
中航第一飞机研究院 大型军用运输机Y-20
中国一航第一飞机设计研究院设计的大型军用运输机Y-20采用常规布局，机翼为悬臂式上单翼，前缘后掠角24°，无翼梢小翼。悬臂式T形尾翼。垂直安定面与机身连接处向前伸有小背鳍，嵌入式方向舵分为上、下两段，升降舵分为两段。液压可收放前三点式起落架，可靠重力应急自由放下。前起落架为双轮，主起落架为6轮。前起落架向前收入机身，主起落架旋转90°向里收入机身两侧整流罩内。该机为大展弦比超临界翼型，采用包括前缘缝翼及外吹式襟翼系统等增升装置。
*Y-20基本技术数据:
翼展45米
机长47米
机高15米
前缘后掠角24度
最大载重60吨
最大起飞重量220吨
巡航速度M0.75(高度8000米)
低空巡航速度630千米/小时
实用升限13000米
航程4000千米

Re: China's transport plane capacities
i really don't want to have to do this every time, so do you mind actually translate what you post? A lot of people here can't read Chinese.
Re: China's transport plane capacities
My expectation is that the High-bypass WS-10a variant will put out at least 32000 lb thrust, which is the output of the PS-90 on the Il-76MF. That is the minimum necessary thrust to match the Il-76MF and C-17 in overall performance.

Re: China's transport plane capacities
Shouldn't the payload be more than a little over 60 tons? Like 60 to 65? Or even 70, on a very good day?

Re: China's transport plane capacities
And also, I find 60 tons to be enough for China's heavy transport needs. The Il-76 they have can only carry 47 tons. Besides, I'm sure that future variants will have expanded cargo capacity, but right now I think that China is more interested in being able to produce a heavy transport in good numbers and of good performance rather than wanting to wait for an extremely good performance plane.
Is this from a reliable source?
