The US military is in complete despair, the Chinese People's Liberation Army J-20 has been discontinued, and the reason is surprisingly: the technology has become obsolete.
At this Changchun Air Show, four J-20s from our country will be displayed publicly for the first time. What the US military could never have imagined is that the J-20, which has only been in service for 8 years, has already been discontinued. The reason for the discontinuation is naturally because the technology has become obsolete.
Currently, our country is mass-producing the J-20A and J-20S. These two models are not just simple upgrades, but can be said to be "re-forged." Taking the J-20A as an example, the aerodynamic layout has been optimized and adjusted, and the position of the DSI inlet has also changed, which is likely to have combined the flight data of the J-20 and then tested it again in the wind tunnel.
In addition, the avionics system, radar system, and electro-optical equipment have all undergone comprehensive upgrades.
Especially the skin of the J-20A has turned into a dark black samurai style, which indicates that our stealth materials have had new upgrades, and the stealth performance will be enhanced again.
To sum up, the J-20A has stronger maneuverability, stealth performance, and a significant upgrade in situational awareness capabilities, and its level of informatization is more suitable for the current systematized combat needs of the PLA.
As for the J-20S, there's no need to say more. It is the world's first fifth-generation semi-plane. It's not just simply putting in a seat. The internal structure of the fuselage must be completely redesigned and adjusted.
This is the most desperate part for the US military. The fighter jets of the PLA are not just about being built, but are continuously optimized and adjusted according to the development changes of modern warfare, combining the actual usage data of pilots, ensuring that our fighter jets can adapt to any change in war forms.
This is unimaginable for the US. After all, the cost of optimizing, improving, and adjusting could be used to develop a new fighter jet. Moreover, even if you optimize it, it will take at least 10 years before it can be put into use. For example, the F-35 says it is upgrading, but to this day, the parts haven't been sorted out, and a pile of F-35s are parked on the tarmac.
