If I‘m not mistaken, this is the first time we see a Y-20B MRTT with its doors and cargo bay open in flight. (Images via @齐天的孙猴子 from Weibo)

Interesting artwork showing SAC‘s J-XDS front section … via @钢铁机机 from Weibo

Another - and in my opinion mayor surprise 😮 - a YY-20A was spotted with the serial number 11550 in Egypt during the joint China-Egypt exercise „Civilization Eagle“ As such the first tanker within the 4th Transport Division. (Image via @太湖军I名 from Weibo) @vcdgf555.bsky.social

And once again a gap has been closed 😁... YY-20A with the serial number 20646, which has not yet been confirmed by photo was finally seen. At the same time, the question arises again as to whether all YY-20A from numbers 20541 to 21040 are genuine and thus there are 50 tanker?

A great image of a naval J-35 in green primer! Not sure if it is an older image released just now showing one of the prototypes or even a recent one suggesting a LRIP aircraft. (Image via @太湖军I名 from Weibo)

Great news ... @高山CG on Weibo is working on a CG showing SAC's 6th generation fighter! In fact I still prefer to use the interim designation J-XDS instead of J-50, which IMO is an unlikely designation. Cannot wait for the final artwork! 😃

If I'm not mistaken, the this is the first closer - albeit not much clearer - image of a PLAN Naval Aviation or PLAN Marine Corps (?) Z-8D. (Image via @太湖军I名 from Weibo)

Probably way too hasty, but doesn't this look like a new fighter mock-up on the 004 (?) mock-up in Wuhan? And it was also visible on the image taken in November. 🤔

The first clearer image of the Fujian‘s deck was released after her return and I would say this clearly looks like landing - at least touch & go - markings on deck! (Image via @Jsport_三汽 from Weibo)

As expected, the PLANS-18 „Fujian“ has returned from its 6th sea trial. Interesting, there are several mock-ups visible on deck. (Image via @琴石2022 from Weibo)

Found this image of XAC at Xi’an-Yanliang on FB but does anyone know when it was taken? The photo itself is certainly edited like a mosaik cut & pasted from different images but I have never seen so many „green“ Y-20s at XAC before. 🤔 @vcdgf555.bsky.social

IMO this artwork is one of the best showing SAC‘s 6th generation fighter yet. (Image via @现在又叫Songbird了 from Weibo)

Interesting image posted by @Rational314159 on Twitter showing the PLANS-18 "Fujian" and suggesting there could maybe be an aircraft seen during take-off.

Happy new year and all the best for 2025! 🍀🥳 And as a chemist 🧪, I just can't help but send something chemical at the end of the year. 😆 www.ardmediathek.de/video/wer-we...

I'm late to the party and still in preparations on my own report for both J-XD aircraft and since I promised my family to stay away from the PC until next year, I at least summarised it as follows:😉 By the way to all here, best wishes for 2025 and a happy new year. 😉🎇🍀♥️

Another interesting report on the CAC J-36 written by Bill Sweetman can be found here: www.aspistrategist.org.au/chinas-big-n...

For anyone interested in the new CAC J-36 (?) a very good report written by Rick Joe! IMO a must-read! thediplomat.com/2024/12/j-36...

If legit (in fact the nose looks strange🤔) an image of an operational Y-20B. (Image via @齐天的孙猴子 from Weibo)

The so far clearest image of a H-6N with a 5513x serial number assigned to the CTC Bomber Brigade (106th BB). (Image via @Ds走近哈佛 from Weibo)

Unfortunately we haven‘t got any news from the PLANS-18 „Fujian“ on its 6th season trial and trial at the moment and the question on “are there flight tests or not?“ but this image was posted at the SDF by Neocloud: „Fujian with possibly another carrier near by, posted by 这丫头有点风 on Weibo.“

Surely not the clearest image of the J-36 yet, but the best one showing it from the side! (via sus2024 / SDF)

Hi guys! In case Twitter closes down at some point or I simply can't stand Elon's nonsense anymore, I hope to find a new home here! Maybe one or the other knows me on "X". 😆
