Re: J-xx

I do have to say that the article is a really old article. I consider most of it to be bs. If China's next generation fighter still has an RCS of 0.5, then China might as well just abandon that project.

What is the RCS goal of the JXX then? I believe the article said one prototype achieved RCS of .3.

Will China's JXX have an RCS lower than .3? Lower than .1?

Re: J-xx

I have absolutely no idea how low the RCS of J-XX will be:
A few things to consider, there are 3 projects we must consider:
1. J-10's improved stealthy variant, I'm guessing RCS of around 0.5
2. CAC's 5th generation fighter, I'm guessing RCS that reaches at least the RCS of the exported variants of F-35. Eventually, will reach the F-35 domestic variant level.
3. SAC's 5th generation fighter, probably similar to CAC's 5th generation fighter.

The biggest factor in the F-22 stealth is the extensive use of graphite composites. If China wishes to increase the stealthness of her aircrafts(or cruise missiles), then China has to do is just use more graphite composites on the J-XX (or J-10 for that matter).

Really futuristic stuff Deino :D

Thanks ... I know I'm a little bit strange because I like these "fiction" pictures ... and I wish someone would make something like that for "China's indigenous bomber program" ! :D

Cheers, Deino
