Chengdu J-20 Stealth Fighter Specs, Cockpit, and Price – The Chengdu J-20 is a single-seat, multi-role stealth fighter aircraft manufactured by the Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group (CAIG), part of the China Aviation Industry Company I (AVIC I). J-20 is a fifth generation fighter aircraft that is being built for the People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF). NATO's reporting name is Black Eagle. Two prototypes were developed in November 2010 for air and ground testing.
Chengdu J-20 completed its first flight in January 2011. J-20 fighter jets are expected to enter service between 2018 and 2020. After operation, the J-20 will replace the Su-27SK Flanker-B, Su-30MKK Flanker-G and Su-30MK2 aircraft Flanker-G. This fighter aircraft will operate with the countries of Pakistan, the Middle East, Latin America, Southeast Asia and Africa.
The size of the Chengdu J-20 fuselage is larger than the Sukhoi T-50 and Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor. The front of the prototype looks similar to the F-22 Raptor and the back looks like a Sukhoi T-50. The J-20 fighter jets are designed to carry out ground attack missions even in hostile environments. The aircraft can reach higher altitudes with delta wings in supersonic speeds.
The stealth fighter will be equipped with a tricycle-type landing gear consisting of a single nose wheel leg and two single main gear legs. The nose of the teeth will retreat to the cockpit floor during takeoff, while the main gear pulls forward to the fuselage.
The maximum speed of a J-20 stealth fighter is 2,100 km/ hour. The J-20 can ride at a speed of 304 m/ s. The service range and ceiling will be 3,400 km and 18,000 m respectively.
The aircraft is also equipped with two small lateral weapons bays under the air holes to integrate the short-range PL-10 AAM. It can also be equipped with air-to-surface missiles, anti-radiation missiles, laser-guided bombs, and drop bombs.

Chengdu J-20 Specs
The Chengdu J-20 stealth fighter features a mixed fuselage with a low radar cross section, low jet engine intake, delta canard configuration, modern fly-by-wire (FBW) system, inletless supersonic inlet (DSI), V-shaped tail and tail fin. The FBW system is equipped with a fire control system and engine management system. The electronically scanned active array array (AESA) will scan the target information and send it to the fire control system.The size of the Chengdu J-20 fuselage is larger than the Sukhoi T-50 and Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor.

Chengdu J-20 Engine
The J-20 stealth fighter is powered by two WS-10G vector thrust turbofan engines designed and manufactured by the Shenyang Liming Aircraft Engine Company. Each engine produces 30,000 lb of thrust. The WS-10G engine is equipped with a nozzle controlled by thrust vector controlled (TVC) to reduce radar cross section (RCS) and infrared (IR) emissions. The diameter of the machine is 0.95 m. Dry weight is 1,494 kg. It will feature a single high pressure turbine, a double low pressure turbine, an annular burner and a compressor.The maximum speed of a J-20 stealth fighter is 2,100 km/ hour. The J-20 can ride at a speed of 304 m/ s. The service range and ceiling will be 3,400 km and 18,000 m respectively.
Chengdu J-20 Cockpit and Avionics
Chengdu J-20 stealth fighter featuring a glass cockpit covered in bubble-shaped canopy. The cockpit will be equipped with two liquid crystal screens (LCD) and top head display (HUD). This aircraft can be operated through a traditional hand on throttle and stick (HOTAS) system.Chengdu J-20 Weapons
J-20 stealth fighter can be armed with internal cannons for close combat combat missions. It will consist of eight hardpoints and large abdominal weapons chambers to combine long-range PL-12C/ D and PL-21 air-to-air (AAM) missiles.The aircraft is also equipped with two small lateral weapons bays under the air holes to integrate the short-range PL-10 AAM. It can also be equipped with air-to-surface missiles, anti-radiation missiles, laser-guided bombs, and drop bombs.
