H-6 Bomber Aircraft Discussions

Re: H-6 bomber thread




crobato:
what type of the H-6 is?
do you think the second pic is H-6 pay load missiles?

Re: H-6 bomber thread

I don't think the bottom pic is an H-6.

The landing gear is different.

IMO, that's the belly of a Tu-160, and that's its landing gear. Looks like a rotary cruise missile launcher. The H-6 does not have this.

This is surely a Tu-160 !! Just take a look to the boxy airintakes ... !

Re: H-6 bomber thread

do you notice that some guy stand beside the plane in second pic, that looks like chinese officer?

Re: H-6 bomber thread

I saw that bottom pic. also-it is of Tu-160!


The officer is most likely Russian AF. Case closed.

Re: H-6 bomber thread

this is kind of interesting, posted by Huitong, any idea what the H-6s are carrying?

Re: H-6 bomber thread

they seem to not to carry anything Those two transports in the side carryes their engines, but the H-6s are too blurry to tell anything

Re: H-6 bomber thread

My question is how old these satellite photographs are.

China is not going to leave its latest experimental aircraft on the runway for all to see. It's probably not something very significant.

Why a big bomber like an H-6? Why not a J-7? I would love to see some pictures of that. Musta been a really bad ice jam. That happens every year here in Iowa.

My question is: does the 24 bombs help while the ice are hundreds kilometers long? Why don't they use some icebreakers instead?
