As a fighter aircraft that has been on the list for many years, the J-20 has been steadily improving after being equipped in small batches. Because it often takes about 3-5 years for an advanced fifth-generation aircraft to form combat effectiveness, especially after a new aircraft launch, it is also actively strengthening the entire territory and all-weather operations.
Recently, through external information, everyone speculated that two J-20 fighters were deployed at a certain forward Hetian airport in the Western Regions. It is worth noting that the area is only 300 kilometers away from the border and the flight distance is no more than 10 minutes. In fact, this is not the first time the J-20 has entered the Western Regions. As early as 2016, the J-20 had undergone high-altitude take-off and landing tests at Daocheng Yading Airport, which initially proved its high-altitude combat capability.
Of course, as far as the actual entry is concerned, the J-20 has been equipped with combat troops in the eastern, central and western regions in small quantities, and a certain assessment center in Gansu has an FJ20-equipped flying brigade. Therefore, the probability of going to the Western Region this time is that it belongs to For the J-20 of this evaluation group.
Prior to this, the airport had also deployed domestically-made J-16 and H-6K fighters, and the two J-20s were obviously tested this time. If they were to perform patrol missions, they would only be enough once a day. Even if the J-20's entry into the Western Regions this time is not enough to change the balance of air combat power in nature, an important signal has been released behind it.
This shows that in the Western Regions, it has the ability to provide good cross-regional logistics support for the J-20 fighter, because actual deployment and logistics are inseparable. Especially for the fifth-generation aircraft with high technical content like the J-20, if the corresponding airport does not have complete logistics support equipment, then the J-20 has no conditions to appear here.
Before the F22 had a rapid deployment plan, a C-17 fully loaded with logistics maintenance equipment and personnel followed the four F-22s into the front. The entry of the J-20 also shows that we can meet the needs of logistical maintenance at any time, even in frontier bases. However, according to the situation of the J-20, it should not be as delicate as the F22. It must be on standby for 24 hours in a constant temperature hangar, and its stealth coating seems to be more durable.
Of course, great logistics also means that there can be two J-20s here, and there can be more J-20s. If there are four, it may ensure that there are two flying missions every day, which can put greater pressure on the other party. Up. It is not yet known how many J-20s will be deployed in the region. After all, there is no logistics pressure, and everything is possible. As we all know, the opponent has been clamoring that Rafale fighters are more stealthy and stronger than the J-20, and this time the J-20 may be able to satisfy their wishes and clearly show the world 4++++ How different is the fighter plane and the 5th generation fighter plane? Therefore, even if there are only two J-20s, this is a great shock.
In particular, the J-20 has a strong air combat situational awareness, and the level of intelligence is fully surpassed by the previous generation fighters. Therefore, two fighters can also serve as the combat core of the entire formation, using stealth capabilities for command, reconnaissance and frontier early warning in networked air combat. The role of two J-20 is enough to improve the overall combat capability, as a performance multiplier for air combat formations!
This also proves once again that the J-20 stealth fighter has reached full-territory, all-weather combat capability. In this way, the two J-20s entering the Western Regions are of great significance. I believe it will not be long before we can see the J-20 formation flying high in the snow!
