The US has another problem, which is that various land based missiles can actually hit their bases/radar stations, so it might not be attacked with airplanes.

The J20 is really made for long range anti air strikes against US assets like tankers, airborne radar command and control, and bombers. The urgent need for US point defence systems for their eastern Asia bases is a very interesting topic. I still think anchoring 4 of the soon to be decommissioned Ticonderoga class cruisers at Okinawa would be a great stop gap measure. 120 VLS tubes, with 4 ESSM missiles per tube, for 4 ships is almost 2000 missiles. That would be a hard nut for China to crack.

It will be a slow attrition mountainous warfare. Heavy assets like planes struggle to fly over them and are easily shot down if they try, helicopters can't fly over them. Tanks can go over them but will easily be ambushed from the terrain. Leaving artillery and infantry to do the majority of the work. An isolated conflict between the two great powers wouldn't amount to much. A full scale world war where the chinese attack bangladesh and push through burma to attack eastern India whilst pakistan attacks them in the west would be a more likely scenario of an upcoming war.

A few observations no one will actually read from a former Patriot ADAFCO and current intel analyst focused mainly on the PLA: 1) The main role of Patriot on Kadena (and everywhere, really) is missile defense. In any shooting war, there will be huge numbers of fixed-wing aircraft and surface combatants in the region, both of whom take a higher priority for fixed-wing targets. Patriots are best conserved for what will likely be an absolutely massive barrage of MRBMs. 2) The main role of the J-20 in current PLAAF architecture is as a long-range interceptor and local air superiority aircraft, not a strike fighter. A saturation attack like what you describe is going to likely consist of a mix of H-6s, Su-27 knockoffs, and JH-7s, leaving the J-20s to try and contest critical airspace and/or hunt high-value strike aircraft or other high-value aerial targets. 3) Patriot (and every other modern heavy SAM system) has no trouble engaging the Kh-31P, or really, any non-LO anti-radiation munition. Same for any glide bomb munition. Their primary utility nowadays is depleting enemy interceptors -- which is a very useful thing, to be fair. 4) Any LO aircraft carrying stores externally is no longer LO. The incredible investment in a 5G strike aircraft makes no sense if you’re just going to strap a couple of telephone-pole sized missiles on the wings and then send it into the teeth of enemy IADS. 5) To #4, any ostensibly LO aircraft carrying an external load is going to be detectable by Patriot (and every other modern search radar on the planet) at or close to their max range. 6) SAM operators - especially US or US allies operating Patriot - are not “blind” when their organic radar is not active. They can receive track data from a variety of sources - mainly Link-16, and can even engage datalink targets (called “low-bright” targets in the Patriot world) under certain circumstances. That said, obviously, you want your radar active if possible. 7) The US has invested a stupendous amount of money in its land-based missile systems - over $20 billion in FY21. Much of this went to THAAD and Patriot, for both modernization and procurement. Granted, much of this is focused on missile and long-range air defense (as it should be), but the Army’s eyes are finally open as to the huge gap in short-range, low-altitude systems. They’re kind of outside the scope of this discussion though. 8) Patriot in particular is very much a Ship of Theseus weapon system. There are literally no common components left between Patriot that fought in the Gulf War and modern Patriot. It is also probably important to note it is about to get its biggest upgrade ever - a new radar (or really, set of radars) that FINALLY offers 360 degree coverage as well as an actively-scanned main array.

The problem for the J20 would be that with detection at longer ranges with the low frequency radar, air defense assets would be summoned to the area.

Another factor for Defense being more important for the US recently is numbers. Russia could never keep up with US numbers conventionally since the end of the cold war. China can, operating more modern 'russian' aircraft than even Russia. Which is quite obvious when you consider their military budget, which they plan to increase even further.

using a J20 for SEAD would be highly inefficient and put very expensive planes at great risk. Having external weapons on a stealth fighter pretty much defeats the purposes of stealth.

Very very unlikely that the J-20 will run into a Patriot SAM. The J-20 is designed as an interceptor to stay in the "fuzzy" range of AWACS in order to destroy high value aircraft logistical assets such as AWACS and aerial refueling tankers. The J-20 doesn't even have an internal gun. It's not designed to tangle with F-22s or F-35s in medium & short range engagements. It's not designed to be a ground attack fighter-bomber either.

The US does not even operate any long range SAM system, as patriot and NASAMS are both very short ranged and THAAD is a ballistic missile defense system that is most likely not designed to deal with aircraft. They have an obvious lack of capability in ground based air defense and should not get complacent.

Patriot could not even hit the most primitive Yemen missile & drone, Saudi put the patriot into the garbage bin.

The first F-15s the USAF had were sent to ANG service and replaced by newer F-15s after just 5 years. A 5 year service life is really short for such an expensive fighter, and this happened to hundreds of them. What you think is a problem is actually the way to solve it.

The s400 turned Syria into a no fly zone. This is due to two factors, one either it is a very dangerous threat to both gen4 and 5 fighters, and two, that they do not want Russia to get RCS data on gen 5 aircraft from the US and our allies. That said, it is likely a combo of both.

Finally an actual person who is not a freaking robot reading a dum script thats completely unrelated to the title

Patriot systems should be replaced with iron dome batteries or David's sling

Okinawa is so close, why wouldn’t China launch cruise missiles or short range ballistic missiles instead to hit fixed targets like radar stations and SAM sites. I understand it’s a hypothetical scenario, but this is really taking the J-20 out of its intended use case.

The capability of the defence is to a large part dependent on the E warfare capability of the Chinese fighters. Ask Sweden how the Jas 39 E preformes against the patriot, it should give the USA a hint. Who knows the Jas 39 E might suprice you. If a small nation like Sweden has fighters able to penetrate the patriot system the Chinese probebly can do it.

Not many will read this but i appreciate the lack of anti-china or us rhetoric. We can finally see actual discussion on military hardware based of logic and reasoning rather than "haha enemy is inferior".

Fab bombs are good for the Us acs for air to ground strikes and as well consider repeat strikes for unsuccessful operations of the Russian millitary for certainty in defense purpose missions double or persistent strikes on one defense mission

J-20's canards are aligned with other control surfaces, such as the wings, and the top edge of the air intake, so for all intents and purposes, J-20 has stealthily designed canards. Which means when not moving, it DOES NOT present any new angles of reflection for enemy radars. And when they are moving, from the videos I've seen J-20, the angle is tiny. Which MIGHT only present a momentary blip, milliseconds, nowhere near enough to get a lock on target. People also need to understand, even the F-22 is very much detectable from long range by low frequency early warning radars, so the idea of stealth fighters that can't be seen is very much exaggerated, it's rather that Stealth fighters PREVENTS the enemy to get an effective lock on target. Because the stealthy features are much more effective against higher frequency targeting radars. In that case, no aircraft is really stealthy. And due to the fact that you cannot create or destroy energy, the radar waves, which are a form of energy, cannot simply be "absorbed" by the stealthy aircraft, it has to be redirected. Which means, any stealthy aircraft, are very detectable from certain angles. So canards doesn't really do much in terms of stealth other than having a different set of more detectable angles. Stealth fighter pilots are very aware of these more detectable angles, and will try to point the least observable angle of the fighter towards the possible direction of the enemy

I think what China did with the j-20 is make an aircraft which is stealthy enough but cannot compare with an f-35 in a aspect of stealth, shown by the canards.

I think you are right. Strategically we have to realize that the only battle scenario that China really wants to pick a fight on is Taiwan and Taiwan only. If the US doesn't intervene or do it quickly enough then China basically will only focus on taking the island (which is very, very close to China in naval and aviation warfare terms) and then defence of an extended coastline. That's why China has invested heavily in fortifying its coastline against potential US naval and aviation strikes first before going for a bluewater navy. With China's landmass, natural resources and a secure hinterland (on the pretext of a neutral to friendly Russia), it has zero reason to stumble into a pan Pacific War like Japan did back in WWII - even Okinawa would be a stretch if the US only use it as a logistical base to avoid pulling Japan into the war. With this background in mind, J-20's design actually makes a lot of sense.
