Re: New Generation Fighter
I'm no expert but if the top intake leads to scram jets doesn't it mean that the plane has 4 engines?
Rumoured to have came from one of the CD handouts from the Zhuhai show:

Interesting to see that there are both top and bottom intakes. Maybe top is for conventional jet engine to accelerate plane to desired speed and bottom some sort of ramjet or scram jet for high speed dash?
From the angle it looks like side-by-side seating.
I think this will be a rapid response weapon capable of anti-ship role if developed.
