Pinkov: The J-20 cannot meet the standards of fourth-generation fighters in the U.S. and Russia
Thread Content
According to a report from Dongfang Net on January 4, Ping Kefu, the founder of Hanhe Commentary, said on the 2nd that the fourth-generation fighter jet unveiled by China in December 2010 was real. He said that this time, the cultural promotion department of the China Aviation Industry Group did not impose strict restrictions on the unveiling of this aircraft. Pinkov believes that this is a quite mature and creative design; the companies involved in its development are successful and possess real strength. “The victors should not be criticized” (as Stalin said). Pinkov believes that the emergence of China’s fourth-generation fighter jets has completely ended the era of imitation in China’s aircraft manufacturing industry, enabling it to become an important player in the global aviation industry. In the article, Pingkef also once again harshly criticized Shenyang Aircraft Corporation’s attempt to clone the Su-33 and Su-27UBK, arguing that Shenyang Aircraft should learn from Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group. He said, “The approach taken by the former party had a very negative impact internationally, destroyed the already fragile Russia-China **cooperation relationship, and was unnecessary.” Pinkov said, “The all-moving vertical tail, all-moving delta wings with variable cross-sections, and slats on China’s fourth-generation fighters give them unprecedented maneuverability, especially in terms of lateral maneuverability, low-speed maneuverability, and maneuverability at low altitudes. This serves as a compensation for the lack of vector thrust engine technology.” However, delta wings sacrifice stealth to a certain extent. Nevertheless, the companies developing fourth-generation fighters are pragmatic; when stealth material technology cannot meet the standards of the F-22, they compensate for this by relying on high maneuverability, and such a design is reasonable. The article states that Ping Kefu believes it is highly noteworthy that the J-20 test aircraft uses domestically produced engines and does not feature vector nozzles, which proves that the WS10 engine has been approved; this is also a first in the history of international aviation, with a new aircraft using a new engine during its test flights. Pinker also said that the larger fuselage design is primarily driven by the need for an extended internal ammunition bay; as a result, the J-20 is essentially a multi-purpose aircraft. With the addition of an in-flight refueling probe, it is capable of using long-range cruise missiles to attack targets in Guam. Meanwhile, when larger-thrust engines are installed in the future, the rear part of the fuselage will also need to be expanded appropriately to accommodate larger fans; therefore, this design makes sense as well. However, Pingkev also believes that in terms of both stealth capabilities and cruising speed, the fourth-generation test aircraft fails to meet the standards of American and Russian fourth-generation fighters, making it a typical fourth-generation fighter with \"Chinese characteristics\". Given the J-20’s empty weight and the thrust output of China’s domestically produced engines, it is impossible for the current J-20 to achieve supersonic cruise capabilities. It also lacks vectoring propulsion technology; just this alone means it does not meet the standards of fourth-generation fighters in the United States and Russia. Furthermore, the development of the active phased array radar, which has already been approved for project initiation, will take at least another 7 to 8 years, which also **delays the deployment** of the J-20 aircraft. Nevertheless, Pinkov argues in his article that through efforts over a period of about 10–15 years, and after equipping the J-20 with large turbofan engines capable of generating 15,000 kilograms of thrust (with materials being the key factor) as well as active phased-array radar, the J-20 will be fully capable of meeting the standards of fourth-generation fighter jets from Russia and the United States, and may even surpass them in terms of maneuverability.
Pinkov’s words cannot be trusted; although he is Chinese, he is a scoundrel who is somewhat hostile toward his own country.
But it seems quite objective when it comes to the issue of cheating, huh
The winner should not be criticized. Salute to Xiang Chengfei!!!:victory:
Thank you, AVIC! ! Shenfei really can’t keep indulging in the glory associated with its status as an old industrial hub in Northeast China any longer; it’s time to show what it’s capable of……
They hate them and are afraid of them at the same time! One moment they kill you with their strength, and the next they reduce you to nothing! Typical of the mindset of saying grapes are sour just because one can’t eat them! As a Chinese, I am proud of my country’s strength!

Making the best use of existing technologies in combination is undoubtedly practical. The former Soviet Union was like that back then, and Russia has inherited this tradition. Pinkerov also didn’t dare claim that his engine was better than those used by the Americans (the engines in the MiG-25 were far inferior to those in fighters like the F-14 from the same era). It is hoped that the J20 carrier-based version and the aircraft carrier will enter service at the same time as soon as possible!
The first test flight was a success – cheers for China!
It’s estimated that the aircraft on board will take off soon as well……
Who is Pinkov? Ping Kefu is from the Zhuang ethnic group in Yunnan; he graduated from Guangxi Teachers College (now Guangxi Normal University). Thus, people worshipped the Soviet general Zhukov and named their son Andrei Zhukov, dreaming of one day matching him. After studying in Japan, he earned his tuition fees by delivering newspapers to the Asahi Shimbun; later, with funds of unknown origin, he established the KANWA Intelligence Center in Canada, employing Japanese intelligence investigators as his assistants. Has acquired Canadian citizenship. **Tendency: This person considers themselves very professional in **, but it’s not clear what their actual level of competence is. This person has several **views: he has always believed that Taiwan is an independent entity unrelated to China** ； Hatred toward China and the Chinese people. Biography: After going abroad, he worked against his homeland. Although Ping Kefu did not seem to be anti-communist, he deliberately carried out many actions that harmed China’s interests; some people consider him a typical example of a modern traitor. Pinkov often returns to China to attend various exhibitions. Some people find him polite; he has also taken the time to explain to the young girls he meets how to learn foreign languages. However, compared to that, Pinkov seems to prefer talking with foreigners, speaking enthusiastically with a smile on his face. He particularly feels a sense of affinity toward Japanese people. Pinkov always paid as much attention to his appearance and clothing as the Japanese did; even in hot weather he would wear a neat suit and tie, complaining about the heat. Evaluation: Some people believe that Ping Kefu’s articles always focus on this topic; for example, whenever China warns the Taiwanese authorities not to pursue independence, Ping Kefu publishes articles in his capacity as a so-called expert, claiming that the Chinese mainland actually does not have the capability to launch a military attack on Taiwan, thereby encouraging those who advocate for Taiwan’s independence ； Whenever the United States intends to sell weapons to Taiwan, Pingkev once again argues that Taiwan has **weak capabilities and is not capable of withstanding** a military attack, and that the U.S. must supply Taiwan with a large amount of weapons in order to maintain balance in the Taiwan Strait ； Whenever Japan promotes the \"China threat theory,\" Ping Kefu always writes articles to provide supporting evidence ； Pinkov also wrote many articles to stir up tensions between China and other **. Therefore, Pinkov’s article is not a mere factual report; it can only be used as a reference and should not be taken entirely at face value. Furthermore, Pingkev’s area of specialization is international **; he only has a superficial understanding of ** and equipment, and it’s just that he has access to more information. Therefore, his analysis regarding ** and equipment can only be used as a reference. Many people consider Pingkov to be a modern traitor who accepted funds from U.S. and Japanese intelligence agencies; it is said that he was beaten by patriotic Chinese in Canada as a result, which made him behave more cautiously thereafter. Pinkov has been regarded as an enemy by Chinese ** enthusiasts’ community, as he has been accused of using images and materials from Chinese **-type online forums in his publications, website, and articles on multiple occasions without permission. Many netizens on the Chinese mainland specifically pointed out the watermark prohibiting Ping Kefo from using it in the photos they took; he is essentially the first person in the Chinese online community to receive such a restriction. Pinkov removed the watermarks from numerous images and insisted on using them, issuing the following statement on his website: \"This image previously carried a label stating that Pinkov was prohibited from using it. In the future, whenever such a situation arises, our magazine will conduct thorough checks to determine whether the image is fake; if it isn’t, it will be used without fail, with no payment for the image rights granted.\" ” Professional experts in China believe he is just an amateur trying to attract attention.
