China is making 240 fighter jets every year… Sixth generation aircraft is ready, know how the problems of Indian Air Force will increase?

China is constantly increasing the fleet of its People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF). It is making it more powerful and dangerous. China is manufacturing about 240 combat aircraft every year. That is, different types of fighter aircraft. More than 100 of these are J-16 Hidden Dragon fighter jets.

Apart from this, 100 J-20 Mighty Dragon and 40 J-10C Vigorous Dragon are being made. The production number of J-11 and J-15, the Chinese version of the Russian Falcon fighter jet, is not known. To compete with them, the Indian Air Force currently has fighter jets like Mig, Mirage, Rafale, Jaguar, Tejas, Sukhoi. But China is making three such aircraft, which can increase the problems of the Indian Air Force... Let’s know about them…

China’s Air Force’s latest stealth bomber H-20 can attack any city in India. Indian forces do not have stealth technology. Nor do they have any anti-stealth weapon that can shoot down stealth fighter jets.

For India’s air security, it is necessary to have at least such radars that can track this aircraft. Then a surface-to-air missile system that can shoot down this Chinese bomber. The H-20 stealth fighter jet has the technology to rotate the radar beam. Therefore, it is difficult to catch it.

If China flies this fighter jet from its skies, it can easily enter Indian territory and target borders, airbases, naval bases, communication centers or military bases. Therefore, India will have to build air defense systems equipped with long-range air-to-air and surface-to-air missiles.

Missiles that can intercept stealth bombers will have to be made. This stealth bomber of China was unveiled only two years ago. H-20 is a long-range bomber that can attack up to a maximum of 13 thousand km. The combat range of the H-20 bomber is 5 thousand km, which means it can attack any part of India.

This fifth generation stealth fighter jet of China has many names. Such as J-31, FC-31, Shenyang FC-31 Stealth Fighter Jet, Falcon Hawk or Snowy Owl or J-35. It is manufactured by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation. J-31 will be flown by a single pilot. The J-31 is 56.9 feet long and its height is 15.9 feet. The maximum weight at takeoff is 28 thousand kg.

It can fly at a maximum speed of 1400 km/hr. The combat range of J-31 i.e. with weapons is 1200 km. If it gets fuel in between, it can travel up to 1900 km. It can fly up to a maximum height of 52 thousand feet.

The J-31 fighter jet has 6 external and 6 internal hardpoints. It can carry 12 medium-range air-to-air missiles. It can carry 8 supersonic air-to-ground missiles, 8 deep-penetration bombs weighing 500 kg or 30 small bombs. India currently does not have any fighter jet of this generation. The AMCA fighter jet is currently being manufactured in India.

The full name of this fighter jet is Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft. Once this fighter jet is made, India will have an edge over Pakistan. Because its speed will be 2600 km/hr. Its combat range will be 1620 km and the full range will be 3240 km. It will be able to reach a maximum height of 65 thousand feet.

China is making a sixth generation fighter jet. Its name is J-XD. That is, XD means Shin Dai. People have little information about it. Most of the information has not been made public. It is being developed further. China’s sixth generation fighter jet program is constantly being upgraded. It will have advanced sensors.

There will be a loyal wingman drone. There will be laser weapons. There will be teaming of manned and unmanned jets and drones. That means by the time India makes the fifth generation AMCA and inducts it into the army, China will be flying sixth generation aircraft.
