2323 is the current quarterly production output pattern pursued by AVIC. It is used to be 0118, like Q1 for everyone to relax and Q4 is when everyone has to work overtime to deliver 80% of the whole year’s goal.

Pardon, but I do not understand the meaning of 2323? ... and what then was 0118?
It means for a given year , say 2023, Q1 finishes 20 % of the whole year’s output, Q2 30%, Q3 20% and Q4 30%. In this way the output and work load are balanced.
Previously, 0118 had been the typical Chinese state run factories output pattern. only Q4 ( October, November and December) is the time to rush to produce

Not exactly related, but in another post he commented that there might be a chance for 2D TVC for J-20A's after all??
(Sorry I don't have a translation software so there might be localization errors) Top to bottom:
How do you know it wasn't installed already (he was replying to a comment about 2D TVC on WS-19)
It's installed on WS-19 already? Really? Shame it isn't installed on WS-15.
Who says it wasn't installed
Orca inferred from Director Yang's (J-20 designer) seminar that the J-20 doesn't need 2D TVC, although Shenyang Aero Engine's study paper proved that WS-15 with TVC had excellent results in ground tests.... (not a part of the translation but personally I don't 100% agree with Orca's interpretation)
Well, it was the J-20. Didn't say it was the J-20A
Almost. Q1 is the festival season, Q4 is the best time to hurry up and to demonstrate how hard people are working.
It’s a joke. He don’t mean that.
...who didn't mean what
Actually never mind, I see what you mean now.
If it was 40 a batch after CB07, then CB10 should only go up to 280, rather than 288.
Tbh all of these CB numbers being thrown around on weibo really make it rather difficult in terms of picking and choosing which are reliable and which are not because many contradict each other.
If CB10288 is legit, and if CB09234 is legit, then one possible explanation is:
CB00-07: 20 airframes per batch
CB08-09: ??40 airframes per batch
CB10: ??50-60 airframes per batch
If its as in who knows if it's installed, and who knows if it isn't installed, I mean, only time can tell.
TVC's application isn't only limited to supermanuverbility anyways, especially 2D. You have IR signature benefits, and since (judging by the delta-canard and body design) J-20 is more supersonically optimized, 2D TVC provides another mean of pitch (and maybe even roll) maneuvering without relying on control surfaces, aka RCS optimization.
Besides, I couldn't recall Director Yang's seminar clearly, but I remember he didn't specify whether it's 2D or 3D TVC, and he's saying it on a maneuverability standpoint. If anyone have the seminar I would love to check.
