China shocks analysts by Flight Testing 5th gen JXX Stealth fighter

[RIPTIDE]

If it is a strike craft, what kind of weapons can it employ? and how many? If they have to put them on pylons it would render the stealth capability useless.

IIRC in this thread there were already the internal bays visible.

Cruise and anti shipping missiles. The Chinese have many fixed platforms, and again, a movable platform makes much more sense.

Very interesting those panels open. Any differences in this 3rd prototype?

Probably with radar and avionics.
