What is the reason behind the delay in the appearance of the H-20?
The H-20 has not yet come out, and it should be the same as the second batch of 055 for the same reason, the original design can't keep up with the times, and part of the design needs to be re-designed, so it was postponed.
The 20 series were all established before 2010, and the opponents and ideas of the target were all before 2005.
The J20 has high strategic importance and access to many resources, and the J20 does not copy the ideas of F22 and F35, but inherits the high-altitude and high-speed routes of J8 and J9, and the original design of J20 is born from the J9 plan.
In fact, it is a stealth plus, radar avionics plus, flight control maneuver plus J8, so when modern air combat returns to high-altitude and high-speed roads, J20 does not seem particularly backward, and its post-service improvement and expansion also continues, ensuring that it will not be too backward.
The benchmark objects of the Yun 20 and the Z-20 are the old equipment such as the C17 and the Black Hawk, which are already lagging behind, but after all, the update of auxiliary equipment is slow, and it doesn't matter if it is backward, it can also be used.
H20 is too special, the scope of application is small, and the importance is high, it is a "heavy hammer" that cannot be used easily, but this kind of thing cannot be left behind, otherwise its strategic benefits will be seriously reduced.
Of course, the original H20 was based on the B2, and perhaps it was later optimized to reduce costs and increase the cost-effectiveness ratio similar to the B21, but it was still a stealth large strategic bomber.
The problem is that this kind of bomber and combat mode has fallen behind, and now that the anti-stealth radar is as dense as a spider's web and the air and space monitoring means are tracked in real time, the B2 type of bomber can only throw missiles outside the defense zone in addition to the air show pretense, which is not much different from the B1B or even the B52.
So now it's pointless to make a boring B2 copy, what do you think about it?
