Isn't the 1500-2500 km being the expected range of the CJ-20?

Is the h6 crewed by 4 or just by 2 pilots?H-6K training simulator.
by three
Until I saw these pics, I never realized that the inner parts of the air intakes were yellow (and I've been looking at H-6 pics for years now). Primer? And if it is indeed primer, why would it be left unpainted?
Speaking of paint, the H-6 is overdue for low-visibility livery. All of China's other front-line airplane types have gone low-viz, leaving the H-6 looking like a Christmas tree in comparison.
And speaking of low-viz, while I like that China seems to be switching to low-viz gray across the board, why does each airplane type have a different shade? If you placed them side by side, you could create a grayscale spectrum. And why does only the J-20 have a camouflage pattern? Trivial issues, I know, but this stuff bugs me a bit.
I remember from somewhere saying that "the higher the expected attitude combat, the darker it gets" but surely Z20 got to be the highest, so I think it's just different works from different designers with the same demand of low-viz camo plus all the drafting process makes the difference, there nothing too scientific nor philosophy behind it expect the boss's aesthetics
