Re: New Generation Fighter
Funny how things can all change in an instant... I'm calling this one -- I think we're finally seeing what we've been waiting so long for.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!
Looks like CAC and PLAAF are getting into the spirit of giving
damn, got there before me....

Re: New Generation Fighter
Not so fast, buddy, no cigars yet!
Looks like a composite of F-22 and Russian T50 prototype, closer to the T50 actually, blurry layer treatment shielded whatever PS imperfections.

Re: New Generation Fighter
No PSer would go to lengths that great to fool us, and with members like =GT seeming to proclaim it as the real thing... well... I'm 95% sure it's the real thing.
And the design of it (from the nose probe to the colour of it and the cockpit) correlates to some of the things one of the posters said of the prototype when it made it's first taxi a few weeks back.
I KNOW AYE!! I hope we come back with some new features :/
True, but all these pictures in the last half hour remind me of when the J-10B prototype first came out -- lots of people said PS, but the sheer quantity of pictures which seem to show the same aircraft at varying angles proves it real.

SDF could not have picked a worse time to do an upgrade

Re: New Generation Fighter
Or perhaps to make Kanwa a massive idiot again...y'know, with the kind of grudges that the Chinese still held against Kanwa, it's totally logical.
Remember, Kanwa did made a wager a few years back that China won't able to roll out the 4th generation fighter within a 4-year timeframe, and if China beat them to it, Kanwa will close its Chinese version of the publication...
Of course there'd be no material victory if that's so, but humiliating a well-known Chinese-bashing journalist and publishing, take a shot to smear their reputation once more? Why not?
Either we are really seeing the first photos of the J-XX/J-20, or we are seeing a higher degree of sophistication from Chinese fanboys....
New fanboy strategy (?):
1. Don't post clear photo(s),
2. Block out clear photo and explain the censorship on patriotism,
3. Remove claim photo quickly before anyone can see and claim conspiracy, and
4. Claim large number of eyewitness and let the rumor propagate itself.
So far, it seems more likely that all these are just hoax to me

Re: New Generation Fighter
If this is a PS effort then it is one of the most remarkable and comprehensive yet undertaken. Images showing roughly the same shape and configuration have appeared apparently taken from multiple different angles and distances.
That said, I agree with those who want clearer pictures before passing final judgement.

Re: New Generation Fighter
Well, from that picture, we can see that the cockpit canopy is like the one on the F-22, it seems that it has small, all moving tail, the engine exhaust seems conventional, the wings have a diamond shape, no-rear stab, and it is difficult to say if there are canards.

Re: New Generation Fighter
I remember 6~7 months ago, a picture of J-11b painted in dark gray (or black green color) in the company factory park posted in the internet,,on the left side there is unknown aircraft,the aircraft now I believe may be J-20, not optical illusion as some suggest.
the side intake rather than under fudeslage, second, was her height.unfortuntely it was very blurr.
