The domestically produced sixth generation fighter jet will become the "Transformers" among fighter jets
In a publicly available patent, it confirms the claim that the exterior design of China's sixth generation fighter jets is a variable aerodynamic layout. It is reported that China's sixth generation fighter jets will adopt a wider range of diamond shaped wing designs, which is similar to the F117 stealth fighter jets equipped by the United States. The difference is that the F117 adopts a V-shaped vertical tail, while the domestically produced sixth generation fighter jet uses three types of variable fully moving tail fins, which have remarkable effects in stealth, hypersonic cruise control, and other aspects.
The domestically produced sixth generation fighter jets will use multiple core components for the first time, including terahertz radar, artificial intelligence systems, adaptive variable cycle engines, etc. Overall, the fighter jets are more inclined towards informatization and intelligence. In response to the question raised by some viewers, "What does China's sixth generation fighter jet look like?" Chief designer Yang Wei said that domestically produced sixth generation fighter jets will become the "Transformers" of fighter jets, with the ability to transform in the air. Although this transformation may not be as fantastical and exaggerated as in Hollywood blockbusters, its integrated wings will highlight its high stealth effect.
Advanced airborne radio electronic equipment can be used in conjunction with its powerful firepower system to carry out ultra long range strikes on any target invading from the air, including traditional stealth fighter jets, which are all its targets. The terrifying aspect of domestically produced sixth generation fighter jets is that they can complete low altitude flights, overcome various obstacles, and attack enemy ground targets without entering enemy air defense zones. "Beyond visual range attacks" are their specialty.
In addition to the aforementioned "signature skills", domestically produced sixth generation fighter jets will also utilize China's successfully developed unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) collaborative technology and artificial intelligence technology, including laser weapons, hypersonic weapons, etc., which will completely change the future air combat mode.
