Xi'an Y-20 Kunpeng | The Chinese military transport aircraft that lifts the PLA

Ғылым және технология

We are investigating the Xi'an Y-20 Kunpeng, the Chinese large military transport aircraft that dares to compete against the U.S. C-17 Globemaster III. #y20 #plaaf #aviation
Why did China need a large military transport aircraft?
Why did China develop the Y-20 instead of copying the Il-76?
Does the Y-20 have a chance in the international market?
Is the Chinese copying policy useless and unethical?

Welcome to our channel. All the weapon systems are like books. They tell us their stories. The Weapon Detective investigates these books, reads between the lines, analyses, and tells the untold. At the dawn of the Second Cold War, the fruits of new projects give us clues about the future. But current weapon systems also have their own stories. You can find in our videos technical information, historical backgrounds, what happened during the development processes, combat experience and political projection. Let's investigate the weapons together when the Second Cold War is rising.

    They copy because the US sets a standard so thats what they doing. All cargo have the wings mounted up high and a T-tail. The engines look more like the IL-76 uses with a front fuselage looks like a 787 Dreamliner in the front fascia.

    The Y-20 and C-17 both have underwing engines, the C-17 uses jet flaps, and the Y-20 uses conventional large-area flaps. As the core design of an aircraft, the wings of these two transport aircraft are different. Before you say that the Y-20 plagiarizes the C-17, would you like to use your brain to do some homework?

    Obviously the engines are from the 60ies with low bypass ratio. If they can refit with at least 80ies engines they can use the free room from less fuel consumption to give the market a viable low cost alternativ to western transport planes. Before they can produce a plane on par with western planes, they need to develop a modern engine. Not sure if they made any progress though. The J20 engine is an old concept from the CF56.

    Intellectual property violations between superpower countries and armies don't exist. Every country does spying and espionage. Only weak countries cannot do what China does so they can only complain and cope. If you're strong you will defend your systems and technology from espionage. Otherwise you can only cry. That's the name of the game.

    Like most of its other weaponries, Y-20 LOOKs better than it is. Just look at its engine spec/performance and the the configuration of how the engines are mounted in related to the flaps ... let alone those interior / avionics we couldn't see... it looks like C-17 from distance but the capabilities are far behind comparing with C-17.

    @@jahidjesan2067 Short version: Compared to the C-17, the is Y-20 is smaller, has a lower internal volume, carries 11t less over the same unrefuelled distance (Y-20 has no in-flight refuelling ability), cruising 200kph slower with a relatively limited short/rough field performance and a relatively poor 'hot and high' performance. China's build themselves an improved Il-76MD-90 with some asthetics of the C-17-- and there's nothing wrong with that, the Y-20/Il-76 are very useful aircraft, but they're not in the same class as the C-17. Comparing the Y-20 to the C-17 is like comparing a C-130J to the A400M.

    This 'it's a C-17 copy' garbage is amateurish. The Y-20 has the same rough size and dimensions as the Il-76MD-90, with only slight improvements to range and payload capacity. China built themselves a better Il-76MD with knowledge gleaned/hacked/acquired (whatever) from the C-17 and other US military programs. That is it. Comparing the Y-20 and C-17 as though they're near peers just because they share **some** visual characteristics is as dumb as 'WiCh iZ bEtTeR, F-14 oR f-22' arguments you see from War Thunder 'experts'. The Y-20 is **NOT** in the same class as larger C-17.
