H-6 Bomber Aircraft Discussions

Is there a need or scenario for a more modern conventional bomber, beyond H-6 fam? (Basically a modernized missile truck for very long range missiles). Can carry alot more payload, weight and volume wise compared to H-6, steal manned/unmanned (H20, GJ-X) etc.

during parade, Guancha Trios revealed PLAAF was actually thinking of large non-VLO bomber as H-6 replacement in order to carry more heavier missiles. but its unlikely to be happen due to various reasons.. most likely they will get only Stealth bomber.

I don't see why you need a more modern conventional bomber beyond H-6. By the time H-6 needs to be retired, their role probably will be better replaced by whatever else the latest technology allows for
