China Fighter Jet Demonstration: Two Chinese aircraft manufacturing companies on Thursday (26 December) showed demonstration models of two stealth (hiding from radar) fighter jets in less than 24 hours. The designs of these two fighter jets were completely different from the designs of ordinary jets. Now there is a lot of discussion on social media that this could be China’s sixth generation fighter jet. These different fighter jet designs from the Chengdu and Shenyang companies may be among the most advanced manned combat aircraft ever built.
It is noteworthy that China’s army usually displays its new technology in the month of December or January. The most famous example of which was the release of the first pictures of Chengdu’s J-20 stealth fighter online in January 2011. Today, after 13 years, hundreds of people may be actively serving in the PLA Air Force.
Two different fighter jets seen at the same time
On Thursday, two manned stealth fighter jets of different designs were seen taking off at almost the same time. This Chengdu model was accompanied by a J-20 escort and both new models are delta-shaped without a tail. Their wings and all control surfaces are in a single straight line. This can reduce the radar signature of the fighter jet, but makes aerodynamics difficult.

China’s fighter jet can be a threat to US-India
China’s Air Force is making efforts to acquire a stealth fighter jet. Which can prove to be a big threat for America and India. Meanwhile, the video of the planes released on social media on Thursday (26 December) is also being considered as a marketing strategy.
However, whether these Chinese designs will remain only on paper or will be included in the Chinese Air Force, it depends on how hard China works on this and how many billions of dollars it is ready to invest for these projects.
