J-20 5th Gen Fighter Thread IV (Closed to posting)

You mean on the lower left side? That is the Chinese character "dragon". It is mostly likely the symbol of a website, web blog where the pic is posted.

No, he's saying all these pics are fake.

Wow! That's a nice one.

Great take-off.

Yep, that's what I figured... In his mind, all these pics must be faked, the CV-16, the J-20, the J-31.

Or perspective.



Maybe that's why the top of the intake is sloped. That slope (and the conspicuous disappearance of the LERXes in front of the canards, sorry I keep harping about that) makes it hard to predict how flow changes downstream just by looking...

The aerofoil shapes at the intakes provides the required additional lifts. Having a vortex generator at the same place may be counter-productive to producing lifts.

Btw, the dragon in-print on the J-20 in that picture looks cool. They might as well paint it on the real J-20.

Right, and I was saying we don't know how that impacts the lerxes downstream despite the change in shape.

2011 sure looks helluva sexier than 2001 not so long ago.

Actually, I have not seen anywhere where SB said they were all fake, and nothing like it...so let's not put words in his mouth.

He has taken issue with a couple of pictures...and many of us have. There si absolutely no doubt that the J-20 and its flights for the three prototypes are real. The J-20 2011 jas been anticipated to fly for quite some time now, and people all over the world have been watching.

So, before we speak for someone, let's here it from them. In the mean time, he has indicated that in that one picture he felt the tree branches were added. perhaps it would be better to ask why he thinks that instead of saying something like this that will only lead to arguments, accusations and counter accusation.

Well, I agree we shouldn't out words in people's mouths, but SB has also expressed more skepticism than one would expect at a variety of different J-20 photos that were quite real.

I still remember posting a stream of different high res J-20 photos to show SB who didn't accept that one of the higher resolution J-20 landing photos taken from below wasn't a PS or CG.
