Why are most of the depictions of the H-20 have a beak like shape, which degrades stealth capability to some degree? I feel if H-20 is indeed a subsonic flying wing, they wouldn't sacrifice stealth simply to make it different from the B-2 or B-21.. So highly likely it looks almost exactly like the B-2 or B-21, those are the most optimized shapes which are still practical to fly.

There should be no need to add a beak, any folding conforming tail, or any extra protusions, it should be as simple as the B-21 in terms of shape

Yeah bet not many people expected China to show off two 6th gen before H-20
Also brings back memories to all the arguments over how supposedly advanced tailless flying wing flight controls are, bet nobody at the time would believe China will just go ahead and make two high supersonic tailless designs before H-20.
On the contrary, revealing 6th makes sense. If you are going scare the shit out of people with a steath bomber, you must first prove you can control the sky. 6th gen fighter will definitely put the fear in the cockiest generals.
You think PLA generals are insider trading? Someone edit Nancy pelosi into a PLA uniform
No, but this kind of info you cant hide. Any worker could tell relatives, including janitors. Any contractor could tell from certain procurement. And if we can tell, someone well connected in China could know "something is being revealed from xian". They dont care about details like us, just reasons to hype up stocks. And the company benefit from stock price.

I have made an order to XAC that H20 shall take flight tomorrow!
If it really does please honor my achevement in bring it to light.:p
Just kidding.
Some of credible bloggers on Weibo have made hints that something big would happen recently. And according to some of the gossip I heard in group messages earlier, I feel tomorrow might be The Day.

Translation:Although the sixth generation machine has a very imaginative design concept and final appearance
But when it comes to the H-20, it may return to vulgarity

I heard an exciting news , and I'm very happy, but I want to be a riddler. And you can't do anything about it.

Just throwing my prediction out there in case it does come out tomorrow. I think that the H20 is gonna to be huge. Much much bigger than the B21, J36 or the B-2. Maybe even the largest bomber ever built by a clear margin. With the J-36 being able to fulfill some of it's role as a stealthy long range bomber- that can go supersonic at that, there's no reason to invest billions into the sub-sonic H20 unless it has a massive advantage over the J36. And I think that advantage over the J36 is greatly increased size, payload, power generation and range. And the J36 is already very big as it as. So that equals a utterly massive bomber.
