Last month, China's People's Liberation Army Air Force Deputy Commander Wang Wei announced China is about to unveil the nation's first-ever heavy payload stealth bomber - a platform we've long known as the H-20 (though its real designation has yet to be revealed). This is a significant development, as the United States has been the only nation on the planet with a stealth bomber in service for nearly three decades now.
But this week, US intelligence officials have gone on record to say that this new Chinese stealth bomber is "not really" a concern... So what gives?
Let's talk about the H-20, and why it isn't causing American Defense officials any lost sleep.

I perform EMC engineering testing in a lab for military and aerospace vehicles and components. People have No Idea how much testing that is needed in order to build something as impressive as a B2 Bomber. It's Years and Years of testing and mountains of data is needed to get it right. Being in that field has really opened my eyes as to how much effort goes into creating and testing these technologies. We Are Elite!

@@ImaStupidNobody- What you miss is that Reagan’s SDI was a masterful red-herring. The funds that were ostensibly targeted at SDI were mostly re-directed into Stealth. This was a major factor in the defeat of the Soviets. They had been spending most of their defense budget on anti-ballistic missile defense (something that was, at the time, impractical) only to have Stealth revealed. They went into panic mode trying to catch up and spent their way into collapse. The history books won’t cover the story for political reasons, but Reagan’s SDI/Stealth head-fake was a genius strategy that executed to perfection!

One thing a lot of people don't talk about is that in order to make a good stealth-busting radar, you need great stealth aircraft to test it against over and over until you have everything configured just right. The US has been testing its own stealth-busting radars against the F-22 and B-2 for a long time. I have no doubt that the current-gen radar systems employed by the U.S are more than ready to detect, track and intercept Chinese 5th gen aircraft. The same goes for Russian aircraft, but calling the SU-57 "stealth" is like calling the Titanic unsinkable, and the SU-75 is a PR ploy at best

The B-2 Stealth Bomber was in development when Jimmy Carter was President! It didn't fly until 1989. Building a Stealth Bomber is not trivial. And now we have 35 more years of stealth experience. We have years of experience building them, and we have the same amount of time figuring out how to detect and target them.

well u tried too hard to justify fanfare which is OK... but i guess following 3 points answer the whole video... (1) Windows OS to Android and over to Harmony OS can answer the Myth of service years ... copying design can circumvent most of it. though It will first be fingers-crossed moment for Chinese in actual conflict but they will also have guess where there could potentially fail and keep backup answer ready. (2) With 6 decades of RND ... US had requirement to reach anywhere and everywhere on globe and still today.. whereas today china is luring the foe onto its own home-pitch south china sea so china does not need a lot of reach and been-n-seen... A lot of African, Asian countries are joining new sides of now multi polar sides and again distances are not much problem.. (3) Boots on ground is also biggest factor and gorilla techniques have evolved to take air beating yet avoid fighting human capita loss with that this is where west is shrinking so boots on ground hence that expensive labor in west needs to be factored.

China has threatened belligerence in 2027. Japan probably won't have much more than a symbolic capability beyond defending territory very far north. Until maybe 2030, Japan won't be able to offer the US more than access to Japanese territory for US based but that by itself is significant. Australia is far further behind Japan and can provide only a presence and reconnaissance from the south. Maybe well into the 1930's Australia will have some ships and planes to shoulder some military force. Submarines bought or made domestically won't likely be available until the 1940's and that's optimistic. Until then Australia can operate only one small diesel sub and a few light ships plus an aircraft carrier which probably would need American support for defense.

China would also have to figure out how to avoid interception by Japanese, South Korean, and of course American fighter jets once they left their bases in China. One of the things the United States did when developing stealth technology was how to spot it once an adversary builds a stealth aircraft, so if the Chinese think they can just stroll a stealth bomber over Japan or South Korea on their way to American targets, that would be a very costly miscalculation on their part.

This is a repost, but even at age 69, I get chills down my spine when Alex shows an SR 71: 1969- As a kid with a pilot father stationed at (then) Blytheville AFB,our base housing backed up to the primary landing strip. As a kid of 13 (1969) I was mowing the lawn at dusk. I heard a huge jet engine sound, unlike my dad’s usual 8 engine B 52s, & looked up to see this AMAZING long, black aircraft landing that looked like something from a sci-fi movie. I ran inside to get my dad & show him. His jaw dropped, too. He had heard about the SR 71, but had, of course, never even seen an illustration! I almost peed my pants! It was only about 400 yards away when it taxied to a hangar. I didn’t know how (or if I even could) to describe the experience to my fellow USAF dependent friends. My goal instantly became: attend the UASF Academy & fly that damn black airplane! Alas, my vision issues precluded admission to the Academy, but I did attend the US Naval Academy & spent 30 yrs there as a physician. That said, I would give it all up to have flown that blackbird….

In the late 70's I dated a girl whose stepfather flew 120+ combat missions over North Vietnam in F-105 Thunderchiefs, including some of the early Iron Hand/Wild Weasel missions. Then he transitioned to the SR-71 and flew it out of Okinawa and Beale until he retired. I was at the ranch one day looking at his pictures in the den and I saw a small 'Mach 3' pin and next to it a small '300 Hour' pin. I knew that Air Force pilots have 1000's of hours so I asked him what was the big deal with 300 hours in the SR-71? He said, in that hot pilot drawl "Well, when you're going that fast it don't take all that much time to get, well, anywhere."

That map at the end is a bit deceiving - play around with circle measures in Goog. Earth, look at where they're investing in infrastructure through Belt & Road, and find a new perspective. The purported range of the H-2O being 8500-10000 km sets it as a threat to anything with its starting point's hemisphere. If staged at a Russian base ("unlimited partnership" lately, remember?) in Kamchatka, they could reach Havana and 49 states along the way. If staged in St. Peterburg, the Midwest is easy, and with a lot less North American airspace and radar arrays. This is also assuming they care about getting the plane and pilot back. So, while the doctrinal discussion and experience are all valid points, range is range. Pessimistically, if they really wanted to fafo it'd be a joint launch from both bases combined with a cyber or grid attack.

@jacobbaumgardner3406
@jacobbaumgardner3406 9 ай бұрын
Not quite. Canards aren’t inherently unstealthy, the issue is hiding it. Rear tails are also not stealthy, but as you can see in the F-22 and F-35, they blend the leading edge into the airframe to limit returns. Canards suffer with that leading edge, but if they’re fixed and blended, then they’d be the same as rear tails. Canards also do not indicate a primitive flight control system. European jets have some of the most advanced flight control setups out there, well on par with American ones. The canard is used because it allows for a more efficient aerodynamic profile, especially at supersonic speeds. Believe it or not, the F-22 is not optimized for high speed and high altitude. It sacrificed some of that capability for low and slow dogfighting potential. The J-20 is not going to beat an F-22 in a dogfight, that’s for sure, but its aerodynamic profile means that it can efficiently sustain supersonic speed, and will, at least kinematically, be on par with the F-22 when fit with the WS-15 engine.

​@@jacobbaumgardner3406If canards worked and were not a problem for stealth, why are they not used on US jets? The AFTI had canards, but it was only a testbed for pointing the nose without the roll axis. Canards add extra control actuators to the flight control system, i.e. added failure points. The flight control system on the F-22 can move each control surface independently. Blending each surface to control flight path makes canards unnecessary.

@@jimandnena4 why didn’t the US use canards in their 4th gen jets? They had p,entry of prototypes in the 60s and 70s, yet they chose not o use them. There was a reason, and stealth was not it, not during that time. It actually makes a simpler system, as you don’t have a rear all moving tail. Most modern jets can move flight surfaces independently, don’t think it’s some proprietary American technology. Canards are not unnecessary, it’s all about optimizing for your particular mission. The fact is that canards improve high Mach performance over rear tails.

One thing I try to emphasize to my friends when we discuss this is, not only does the US have a massive advantage building stealth and LO/VLO platforms, it has another. It’s possibly more significant that the US has been tracking those platforms longer than anyone else. That’s why when I hear of states having anti stealth capability, I kinda took my eyes. Because outside of the US, who else can ACTUALLY test them against dozens of real world targets? With todays software driven systems, knowing how to program the signal information is maybe the greatest asset American air defense has.

Even if it's outright inferior to the B21 or even the B2, it still represents a brand new and threatening Chinese capability that will need to be accounted and prepared for. Same goes for the J20. Even mediocre (and even assuming this is dangerous) 5th gen aircraft are such a greater threat than 4th gen that they threaten to completely change the game. Honestly the biggest benefit of the US / the West in being ahead of China is that they can use their own 5th gen fleets as adversaries to train against and prepare. I hope that the H20 not being "a concern" is more down to this fact than a flippant disregard of the potential threat it might represent.

Here he is just like, "They are truly stealth as they don't even show up on our threat radar. Flocks of birds around the runway will cause more damage. The losere." Anyway I prefer us not to underestimate our enemies. China was hiring ex pilots, and stealing any information they can get. Yet most importantly they have their hands on super computers along with AI. I imagine it is a lot easier to make iterations with them. It doesn't have to be better than ours to be dangerous. Just good enough, and who knows how fast China will be able to make a fleet.

The main worry was about how much tech was stolen or leaked to China for them to build a copy. From what it seems to be going, China only had barebones at best of the knowledge they needed likely merging what they gleaned with other stealth tech they stole from I'm guessing the early knowledge of the F-35 and the F-117. It seems they figured they had enough to build something and decided to go with a flying wing design, and yet didn't realize the sheer complexity of the design and the stealth requirements to ensure such a design could maintain that stealth or fly well for that matter. If this is true it means that China might be having trouble in the complex programming needed to keep such a craft in the air, and the requirements for its stealth. Assuming its the same they are using for their fighters. This is probably why their design has tail fins, indicating they couldn't figure out all the issues and that provides stability in certain flight situations. Also its telling that China was originally supposed to show the world the bomber as far back as 2020 or 2021 I belive. Then it was pushed up to 2022 and I believe they were going for 2023 when the US suddenly revealed the B-21 Raider and likely had China's H-20 look like a joke. It will be interesting when they finally reveal the bomber. At most it will make a nice war trophy.

No one has even seen and we probably won't until the 2030s, if ever. So no one knows it specifications. We only knows it even existed because the Chinese said it exists.

China is behind but their espionage seems to be top notch and you just can never be complacent with the Chinese. The second you think you are better than them they show you they have other strengths. We learned this lesson in Korea and it’s influenced pretty much every decision we have made regarding China since then.

You never know what the effect of theft is. I suspect the much publicized theft of stealth aircraft technology may have netted the Chinese very little usable info. This was when the F-35 program was a mess and many years before the program had to be practically burned to the ground and rebuilt around 2017 replacing all the avionics, virtual perspective, modular architecture, improved stealth materials and numerous other features. The joke really was on the Chinese stealing stuff that didn't work. Maybe they got something out of it but no one is saying exactly and authoritatively what China stole that is showing up in their aircraft.

The B-2 was released with a stealth signature about 1m square. Now the Super Hornet/Rhino has the same stealth signature. Quietly, in the background, with maintenance and upgrades, the B-2 signature has been reduced be an order of magnitude. Some say, TWO orders of magnitude. It is actually approaching its theoretical lower limit. Just in time to be retired and replaced with an aircraft that takes everything learned in the last 50+ years.

The first attempt for stealth was on the U2 using uranium paint in a concept called plasma stealth. The concept was that the radiation would scramble the signal. It didn't work. When Russia was advertising the "stealth" aircraft Pak Fa, plasma stealth was brought up on why it was stealthy.
