JH XX

China recently unveiled the JH-XX, a medium-sized fighter bomber that resembles the Sukhoi Su-34, rather than a 6th Gen fighter like the US Air Force's NGAD. The infographic compares the JH-XX's specifications, such as payload and cockpit design, with those of the NGAD and existing 5th Gen fighters. The JH-XX is characterized by its all-aspect stealth and supercruise capabilities, similar to the NGAD's features.

JH-XX: not the Chinese NGAD

Recently China unveiled two new military aircraft. In this infographic we will focus on the one that had the best images available.
While many people have pointed to the aircraft as a 6th Gen fighter - similar to the US Air Force NGAD (Next Generation Air Dominance), we
suggest this is the JH-XX medium size fighter bomber that PLAAF has been developing, a modern day Sukhoi Su-34.
The depicted notional NGAD aircraft is based on the Lockheed Martin 6th Gen fighter artist impressions with a length similar to an F-111; the JH-XX is based on an top down extrapolation
compared to the J-20 from the images available online.
