How China Stole their J-20 Stealth Aircraft

China’s mighty dragon J-20 stealth fighter jet aims to outmatch the American F-35 and F-22 fighters, it wants to dominate the skies over the South China Sea and ensure air superiority in the event of a war with the United States. but is it really all that great or is it just a cheap Aliexpress knock off version? To be fair, Xi Jinping's air force is getting a large part of the beefed up modernization budget and it appears to be paying off in some ways. Experts estimate China to have at least 200 J-20s in service today. So this isn’t one of those adversarial weapons that we hear will exist one day in the far distance like Russia’s T-14 armata tank, nope this thing is actually here already.
And these are exactly the kind of interceptor jets that are deployed in incidents like In August 2022, when their air forces responded to Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan by breaking records with 446 aircraft incursion into Taiwan airspace in a single month. But are any of the J-20’s capabilities unique or did China tactically acquire all of them? Tactically acquire is a lower enlisted way of saying steal it. Although this time its not just the United States claiming the jet was stolen Russia is also crying foul. We’ll also speculate on whether or not American radar systems detect this new Chinese stealth fighter, And how is the J-20 optimized for anti-access area denial - which is China’s main strategy and tactic for dominating in the South China Sea.

As a former industrial engineer I am disappointed with US failure to put as much effort into manufacturing as we do into R&D or trying to boost stock prices. Moreover, I've worked with Chinese researchers, engineers, and medical professionals much of my life. The Chinese people I know get ahead because they are smart and work hard.

    History has proven the Chinese lack the creativity and capacity for innovation and development, all of their modern technologies and advances are built off the back of pre-discovered tech. Even inventions attributed to them such as paper and blackpoweder aren't linked to the modern han-chinese (despite how much they claim it is) but were thanks to the ancient Chinese whom were mongol in origin, and even then when they apparently invented the compass it took decades for it to actually be used for navigation since the Chinese only used it for their "medicine"

    The j20 is essentially a somewhat stealthy missile truck with wings. It’s an interesting approach, have a plane that can fly longer, with a farther BVR range that can act like a defensive aggressor from long range. I’m not surprised by this approach though, china is well known for its accuracy by volume approach to war. Th j20 being able to carry more long range missiles tells me this guy will be used for deterrence and for striking HVTs by lobbing multiple missiles before the target can get in range of it to fire back. The f22 being much faster, having supercruise and a much better stealth cross section is a great counter to this though as it can sneak into range of the j20 with speed and stealth and strike that way. Also you have to remember that it is 100% possible for fighter jets to shoot down other fighter jets missiles. How difficult that is or if that can be done with smaller air to air missiles I’m not sure. Hopefully we won’t see the day where the US and china are at war. That will be terrible for everyone involved and will lead to hundreds of thousands dead if not millions. Woooo what a time to be alive 💀💀💀🙃

Shut down by Russian missiles system created in early 60s combined with old type chinese radar. Seemed that F-117 was not invisible at all? "Sorry, we didnt know it was invisible" was Serbian reaction. After this war F-117 was put out of service, even this was first plain lost. Rumour was that some parts of this plain camed into Chinese hands.

    stealth doesn't make an aircraft invisible, just very hard to get a lock on or keep lock. It'd likely look like something popping on and off your radar screen as the aspect changes and you get more or less radar return. Also as we know certain track radars can detect stealth aircraft, but lack the accuracy for a lock. They can detect it, so i highly doubt a J-20 flew over Taiwan without them noticing. It's probably more likely the pilot in question turned off his RWR, went super sonic, sped quickly over Taiwan(or likely one of their islands) and wasn't intercepted therefore says they didn't detect him because he doesn't really know. So technically he could say that. But ya, not true.

    The part of overflying Taiwan without being detected is utter garbage. How much signal return you get from a stealth aircraft depends on the aspect your radar is towards the jet. Since the J-20's would have at some point flown over directly over the island Taiwan's air defense radars would at some point be looking almost directly up at the underside of the aircraft fuselage. That's one of the worst aspects for a stealth aircraft and generates some of the largest signal returns as it's a way bigger surface areas than looking at an aircraft from the front or rear. The Chinese aircraft were detected no doubt.

It will also cause any radar on side doing the jamming issues as well affecting their own aircrafts ability to acquire targets.

Gun is there for last resort dogfight, but more than likely air to air missiles will do all the damage. Since both sides are stealth it is not far fetched to think they will close in on each other before they know the other is coming. If you only have long range weapons, you could get toasted.

    The AIM-260 is just starting production, and it is expected to be fully operational by 2027. The reason why it took it so long to the U.S., is because they intended to design it to be dimentionally similar to the AIM-120, while the Chinese PL-15 and Russian R-37 are twice and thrice as wide, respectively; and nearly half a meter longer than the AIM-120. The U.S. gives importance to making compact missiles to avoid the need of retrofitting aircraft, and to allow aircraft to carry more missiles for less weight. Russia and China just went ahead to make their missiles bigger to reach their intended range. If China had the ability to make smaller missiles, the J-20 would be much smaller, or it'd be the same size while carrying more missiles

Take two sheets of steel and measure the RCS, the bigger one will have the larger RCS. Coat both in RF absorbing materials and the larger sheet will still be larger. Shape them in stealthy shapes and the larger sheet will still have the larger RCS. Take the larger shaped and coated sheet and compare it to the unchanged smaller sheet and the physically smaller sheet will have the larger RCS. Physical size is directly linked to RCS, but it is not the only thing directly linked to RCS, nor the most impactful.

As I said, they just need to get in range to engage with BVR then hightail it out of there. That thing is a boat and probably maneuvers like one, so I doubt they'd deliberately merge with fighters that can actually dogfight.

    Umm stealth doesn't mean invisible to radar. It just means the radar return you give is not enough for a missile system to lock onto, be it air to air or surface to air. Most experts say the J-20 is designed from the ground up for frontal stealth. Meaning its basically an interceptor, not an air superiority fighter. That means its meant to intercept enemy bombers and strike aircraft at range with its missiles. Its frontal stealth allows it to get closer without being locked on to (not that it can't be seen by other aircraft) so it can fire its missile load. Once it fires off its missiles it retreats to land and do it all over again. This means it can't lotter on station and is a more one and done fighter. US stealth fighters have all around stealth, so they are meant for air superiority with the F-22/F-35 and ground attack missions in F-35 (thought in stealth mode the F-35's payload is small). This means they will attempt to drive off enemy fighters and suppress enemy ground base defenses. China's strategy is to try and overwhelm US aircraft and defenses with missile spam. Not unlike the Soviet Union's strategy against US airpower and defenses. The problem for China is that their ASEA radar are about as good as current Russian versions. Meaning they can't lock onto F-22/F-35 at range and have to get closer than Chinese doctrine allows. So right now Chinese doctrine is to missile spam to push away enemy stealth fighters. If that fails bring them in close enough for Chinese SAM systems to push them away. But that doesn't require enemy aircraft to be shot down or enemy defenses destroyed only pushed back and suppressed. The main problem for China now is their engine tech is still not mature enough so range and engine life is still quite low, though close to Russian engine tech. But the biggest problem for China is the B-21 Raider. We know because the amount of hacking and espionage attempts by China on the Raider program only match those on the NGAD....and possibly SpaceX rockets. This because the B-21 is meant to be undetected before and after it fires its payload. Meaning by the time a B-21 strike package is detected on Chinese radar or stuff starts blowing up and its already turned back to base. This is because modern US strike weapons are designed to be spammed at range and just as stealthy as the aircraft carrying them. The NGAD is supposedly to be just as hard to detect at range, like the B-21 have a next gen SABER II radar system, have celling of over 80,000 ft, it will have super cruise above Mach 2 and top speed approaching Mach 3 (like Mach 2.8). It will also be a big fighter probably the largest jet 'fighter' ever fielded by the USAF. With charactistics close-ish to the MiG-31, only with longer range, much better maneuverability, much heavier payload, advanced radar/data system allowing it function as a mini-AWACS and best stealth available to the US. But since its mean to be an air superiority fighter it will have very long lotter time on station with enough weapons to keep enemy air threats at bay.

    In fact, when people mock the quality issues of Chinese manufacturing, they do not realize how long the world market has been occupied by Chinese manufacturing. Many of our daily necessities and electronic products are made in China, and they may mock one or two extremely cheap products with poor quality, but more products are selectively ignored because most of the products produced by well-known manufacturers and companies are of completely qualified quality, But before these products have quality problems, people will never notice that they are even made in China. I mean’s. when the market is full of Chinese made products, the number of quality problems in Chinese products will naturally increase. However, compared to the large scale of Chinese made products, this proportion is very small, but Chinese made products can occupy the market, It indicates that under the operating laws of the free market, it can withstand tests. So, looking at everything in your own homes, how much is produced in the United States and Europe? I think many of the items in your home that have been in use for a while are made in China, as well as some come from Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries. Even if many products are not made in China, you will find many parts from China after opening them, and you will not complain about the quality of these junk items from China until you know that they come from China. Just like the US military recently complained that some parts of the F35 fighter jet came from China. But these are not the key points. The key point is how many Made in USA products you have, and do you really think they can withstand the test?

The SU-57 is a tad bit better than the F-22 and both are marginally better in theory to an F-35 in dog fighting. But all of this is irrelevant due to F-35s far out doing either plain in BVR combat, oh and there are 650+ F-35s vs the 16 SU-57s. The J-20 is utter trash compared to all of them especially considering it is not even capable of dog fighting. Let alone the fact the F-35 is able to fly higher, faster, and has nearly double the effect range on BVR. And none of that even touches the stealth factor.

JF-20 no one wants.. even Pakistan dont want chinese engine they prefer Russian RD-series..in short American and European engines are way more reliable fuel efficient and have long service life like in somecases more than 10x.. calling russia and china near peer enemies is only technically correct in reality they are decades behind in a lot of areas.. after this ukraine conflict exposed russian equipments.. my country is slowly tryign to get rid of russian stuff and get more french stuff.

    The Raptor and Eagle can fly way higher than there "max altitude" that pilots are typically restricted to. You just need a spacesuit if you plan on being up at 80-90,000 feet for any sustained period in the event of an ejection

    I believe the J-20 can generate lift up at 66k, I can even accept that its control surfaces are big enough that they might be able to steer a little bit at that altitude. But give me a break, that engine is stalled at 45k.

    @@jasonhayman9521 not simply to go up that high in a fighter, the cockpit is pressurized obviously. The suit is needed in the event of an ejection or pressure loss. When the F4 Phantom flew up to nearly 100,000 feet back at the tail end of 1959 , I don't think the pilot was wearing a space suit, but could be wrong

    The J-20 had been equipped with much larger and more powerful WS-15 engine before this video was published. As for overall J-20 capability, it's probably noteworthy that the US hasn't accelerated its NGAD production schedule and at least publicly continues to delay start of oroduction, unstead preferring to do some minor upgrades to its F-22 and selling and upgrading Taiwan the latest F-16V. That's effectively thumbing its nose at the J-22.

    The J-20 is an impressive plane. Only real flaw in its design that I can see is its (apparent) lack of a gun. But than it’s more likely more of an interceptor than a dogfighter

    @@AnimaRandom the j20 with the ws15 engine is 400+km faster than the f35 or f22 so having a cannon is pretty waste of space and weight, it design is spot enemy empty missile then disappear. it much faster it can easily get out of cannon range, cannon is more like ww2 eara, now every dam thing is missile
