PLA next/6th generation fighter thread

I am not familiar with Chinese sites and so I don't know the credible ones from that of somewhere out there. There is one I recently came across that described the characteristics of a 6th gen which I though was so far out that I thought was rather amusing.

Basically these attributes really got me amused "It is said that J-28 is able to conduct accurate conventional hit to counter the nuclear threat from the entire solar system. The laser weapon a J-28 carries is so strong that it can melt a nuclear missile launched from any planet or satellite in solar system. J-28’s speed is so high that even if it fails to intercept a missile the first time, it can chase the missile to hunt it.In addition, it is such a wonderful stealth fighter that it cannot be detected by either radar or radio telescope."

Thought we should have a thread for this as we start to get tiny tidbits for it over the coming years.

Hongjian brought this to attention over at CDF
Apparently this is a proposal by Northwest Polytechnic University and 601 (SAC), of a 6th generation fighter.
The website shows quite a few innovative proposals by various aerospace institutes, sponsored by the PLAAF and AVIC (?) I believe -- apparently the "6th annual defence aviation competition". Some of the ideas are absolutely ridiculous (including X wing J-20, dozens of UCAVs, torpedo AShMs and avatar-esque tiltrotors), but some of them are plausible, and this competition I believe is related to the UAV cup a few years ago which was the same one where we first saw the model of J-31 and Lijian UCAV as well. So don't discount everything as just fantasy -- these are ideas meant to generate innovation, done by aviation institutes, from what I can see.
The 6th gen proposal is just that, a proposal. I suspect the PLAAF has done more in depth studies on its own, but it is good to see that an institute has independently begun looking into it. I suspect CAC and all the other major players in AVIC have also begun their own independent studies.
For now, it is interesting to see how the first vision of 6th gen from China might look.

I encourage everyone to take a look at the website. This competition might hold a few concepts that will be pursued and developed into reality by PLAAF.

Isn't that just US Navy's proposal of "NGAD"
