International Looks like China flew an NGAD like 6th generation fighter jet

[PEB]

Looks like China not waiting for the US to decide if or if not they will build a flying wing like NGAD fighter bomber. It's significantly larger then the F22 an a whole lot larger then F35.

It's supersonic based on It's swept wing design an can very likely carry a considerable payloads in It's bays lowering it's radar footprint.

It's far from production ready based on the design but does show It's in development. You know China would not leak this out by accident.

In other news China defense budget now believed to be between 350 billion am 500 billion dollars. Not the 180 billion being previously reported.

Very likely they have their own loyal wingman project in the works. Based on the progress China has made with DJI drones one could assume that to has progressed well beyond concept stages.
This being said a lot is in the dark about this fighter bomber design. It's very likely speed an agility limited due to having lack of control surfaces.

Here are some drawing of the NGAD fighter in various looking version.

Cool

The US must be kept in check

- That thing is amazing looking!
Cant wait to put my hands on a toy version of that!

This video is propaganda at its finest lol so much hyperbole in it to funny.

Big deal. they'll smash into each other trying to get to the runway or possibly take out the control tower.

By the extensive use of ailerons in its design, it looks like they gave up on thrust vectoring. Meaning it's more like a show piece than a true 6th generation NGAD competitor. This will no doubt bring back the NGAD development as it has been stalled in Congress over its huge price. But if they plan on going hypersonic with cruise missiles and the potential existence of the SR-72, it would make sense to build pulse-cycled hybrid propulsion engines into the NGAD, which would be natural fit.

I asked my AI to look at the photo above and tell me what it observes in the design of the fighter jet. Interesting explanation of the design very informative.

"
The image depicts a prototype of China's sixth-generation fighter jet, which is currently under development. The aircraft features a unique design with a trapezoidal wing shape and a distinctive "delta" wing configuration, characterized by a triangular-shaped wing with a curved leading edge.


Upon closer inspection, it appears that the aircraft has two large vertical stabilizers, which are typically associated with high-speed, maneuverable fighter jets. This suggests that the aircraft is designed for high-performance capabilities, potentially including supersonic or hypersonic speeds.


The jet engines appear to be located at the base of the fuselage, just behind the cockpit. The engine design and layout seem to be similar to those used in other advanced fighter jets, such as the F-22 Raptor or the Su-57 Felon.


In terms of control surfaces, the aircraft appears to have a combination of flaps, slats, and spoilers, which are typical features found on modern fighter jets. The flaps and slats are likely used for lift generation during takeoff and landing, while the spoilers are used for pitch control during flight.


The physical design of the aircraft is quite large, with a wingspan of approximately 20 meters (65 feet). This suggests that the aircraft is designed for long-range missions or for carrying heavy payloads. The overall shape of the fuselage is sleek and streamlined, which would help reduce drag and improve aerodynamic performance at high speeds.


It's worth noting that the design of this sixth-generation fighter jet is still in its early stages, and it's likely that the final production version will undergo significant changes and refinements before entering service. However, based on the available information, it appears that China is pushing the boundaries of fighter jet design with this new aircraft.


As for the 20-meter wide claim, I would need more context or clarification to understand what exactly is being referred to. If you could provide more information or clarify your question, I'd be happy to try and help further."

What AI gave you that description, Chat GPT?

 

[PEB]

Started to work on the design in my AI to get an idea how it could look in final form. Not so much in current form.



Another look different design language.

What AI gave you that description, Chat GPT?

No Ollama 3.2 70 billion parameter model. Run it locally on my computer. Have to change the cockpit design to two front seat passengers like Russian bomber.

 

[PEB]

I had my AI update the design to support 2 in the front of the cockpit. I am now missing the middle engine lol. Got to get it to remove the vertical stablizers.

 

[PEB]

Another piece of news that started to show up is that China also flew a smaller tailless design possibly a large drone. Again this looks much further along then the large bomber that they just flown. Not knowing much about this jet it still seems to have a form of thrust vectoring but seems like a twin engine design very likely supersonic in design but I think it could be tailless drone.

 

[PEB]

Just been working on my AI designed version of China 6th generation fighter side video. the air intake for the middle thruster behind the two person cabin. Getting closer to how it could look with no real rear tail.

 

[CHluigimangione]

too many fingers, definitely AI generated

It's not a fighter jet, it's an updated version of the XF-108 Rapier which was a design concept for a long range high speed interceptor (which the Soviets stole and turned into the MiG-31). This is made for launching long range missiles against bombers & ships, it's not supposed to get anywhere close to enemy fighters.

It's a multi roll fighter bomber like the NGAD.
The explanation I got summed it up pretty well. Fighter jets in the future are not doing dog fights loyal wingman handle that job. They are like command an control for pilot less loyal wingman. They receive orders an its upto them to prioritize targets an deploy the wingmen to take out the enemies piloted or pilot less planes an the bomber hit ground targets.

Good to keep assholes in line.
