J-20 5th Gen Fighter Thread VIII

[Alfa_Particle]

Actually, it's hard to say.

The J20A is the most advanced fighter aircraft of the PLAAF.

Sending out the J20A equipped with a new type of engine to participate in the air show might not be in line with the conservative style of the PLAAF.

Well, J-20 was first shown off in 2016 before it even entered service

That, and I believe we're seeing a shift in stance from them.

Also, keep in mind that the Y-20B went into serial production late 2024 and appeared in the parade mid 2025.

Still rarely seen, this is a J-20 assigned to the 56th Air Brigade based at Zhengzhou, CTC participating the current exercise.

114 grey jets is a parody of the "3000 black jets of Allah" AFAICT. 114 is one half of the beast, and I don't think that meme is worth discussion in this thread.
