Sigh. Looks like I trusted the wrong person...

Anyone can write any claims on internet and weibo. We should learn the art of checking and filtering out false information.
If I want to fool people, I can open a twitter account and put in some sensational false info and fake photos, and I am sure there will be many followers sharing my false claims. Therefore you should double check and triple check with other sources before sharing.

Haha, my friend, you seem a bit too excited. I believe that once you calm down a bit, you’ll remember that the PLA’s equipment plan has never been done this way. If the information about the range is true, then they would only mention the takeoff weight and not the payload. If the payload information is true, it’s probably already 2035. If the prototype test timeline is accurate, then we wouldn’t be able to know the range and payload. If all the subsequent service plan information is true, then there would likely already be thousands of replies and hundreds of photos on this topic…
Sure.
Though, to be frank, I posted that photograph from @olalavn's tweet mainly because I have seen (or saw) @olalavn as (at least) a knowledgeable, if not a fully 100% reliable source of information, especially when it comes regarding semiconductors and EVs.
Same reason as to why I can trust postings by @tphuang and @Deino, both in here and on Twitter - Because I know that I can rely on them for new information on China-related military and non-military development.
But, of course. Lesson learnt.
Someone can be somewhat reliable in one field and completely unreliable in another.

55 tons, because they want to be able to air launch DF-31.
What context are you referring to 55 tons?
The fanciful rumoured payload in the last couple of pages lol, he's being sarcastic
courtesy. don't want to inconvenience enemy with shooting down multiple smaller targets.
I prefer H-20 to be more like this than a flying wing, this way you could build a universal platform for a bomber/transporter/air refueling vehicle .
The whole “VLO&nuclear capable “thing is pretty stupid tbh, just make something like RQ-180 for that, bombers should be relatively cheap and expandable like B-52s once was.
