China on track to 12 operational J-20stealth fighters in 2017 for airpower edge over other countries in Asia

中国计划在2017年部署12架J-20隐身战机以取得对其他亚洲国家的空中优势

In July 2016,the Chengdu Aircraft Corporation rolled out two more low rate initialproduction (LRIP) J-20 stealth fighters. This brings to a total of four J-20fighters built for service into the Chinese air force, as opposed to theoriginal eight J-20 prototypes, which are still undergoing a rigorous flighttesting regimen. At this rate of production, China may have 12 production J-20ready to hand off to a PLAAF squadron for operational and flightfamiliarization, with an initial operating capability (IOC -- meaning thosefighters can conduct combat operations) in 2017-2018.

2016年7月，成飞批量推出了另外2架低速生产型（LRIP）J-20隐身战机。这样一来总共就有4架进入中国空军装备的J-20隐身战机，另外还有之前制造的8架原型机，这些原型机仍然在接受更严格的飞行测试计划。以这个制造速度，将会有一个中队12架量产型的J-20交付解放军空军用于入列改装，以便在2017-2018年形成初始战斗力（IOC，意味着这些飞机形成战力）。

If the J-20 meets its 2017-2018 IOC target date, it will give China atechnological edge in air to air combat over all its Asian neighbors, who donot yet have 5th generation planes. As a heavyweight stealth fighter, it isarmed with long range missiles, electronic warfare, advanced radar and passivesensors, making it a respectable competitor to even the new US F-22 and F-35stealth fighters. CAC is already planning a series of future updates to keepthe J-20 state of art; domestic WS-15 engines are just one of them.

如果J-20可以按期形成IOC，中国将对所有的亚洲邻国在空战中取得技术优势，这些国家都没有5代机。作为重型战机，J-20可以携带远程导弹、电子战装备、先进雷达及被动传感器，这些甚至可与美国的F-22与F-35相提并论。成飞已经安排了一系列的升级计划已让J-20保持在最新的技术状态，国产的WS-15引擎即是其中的一项。

J-20将会是隐形、快速、重型的战机，配有远程空空导弹、先进雷达和红外传感器。J-20可能比其他武器更能代表中国的军事现代化。图片来自中国的军事论坛。

Also ImprovedJ-31 fighter

另外还有升级版的J-31

China's second fifth generation fighter, theJ-31 is a twin engine, medium weight stealth fighter built by the ShenyangAircraft Corporation. It is undergoing testing, while waiting for firm domesticand export orders. A display floor model of an improved J-31, with a largerfuselage, improved indigenous engines, stealthier features and improvedsensors, was prominently displayed at the Zhuhai 2014 Airshow. The second J-31prototype, incorporating those improvements, is expected to make its firstflight soon, if it already hasn't done so. A first flight of the improved J-31,just in time for the 2016 Zhuhair Airshow, would greatly improve its salesprospects at home and aboard.

中国第二款5代战机，J-31是沈飞制造的双引擎、中型隐身战机。J-31在试飞中等待落实国内及出口订单。在2014珠海航展中，一架地面展示模型醒目的出现了更大的机身、改进的国产发动机、更多隐身设计及升级后的各类传感器，这些极大的提升了其国内及出口市场的销售前景。

As Chinese defense exports grow, the J-20 andJ-31 could start making the rounds at foreign airshows, and possibly even inforeign air forces.

随着中国的武器出口增长，J-20与J-31将可能出现在国外航展上，甚至可能进入外国空军列装。
