Recently, there was news on " Dayu.com " that J-20 has come to Zhengzhou, and can get close contact and also send space seeds, indicating that this PLA 5th generation fighter will be unveiled at the Zhengzhou Air Show. Since the "Aerospace Pavilion" of the 2017 Zhengzhou Air Show is a high-tech exhibition hall that integrates aerospace science popularization, spacecraft physical exhibitions, and space interactive experiences, sponsored by the China High-tech Industrialization Research Association and hosted by the Exhibition Work Department of the China High-tech Industrialization Research Association and Beijing Zhonggao Ruijia Exhibition Co., Ltd., this news seems to be relatively authoritative. However, we should not forget that in the PLA's air weapon platform family, there is also an L-15B coach/attack aircraft, which has excellent performance and can adapt to the needs of countries with low-intensity combat.
J-20
L-15B is that it is equipped with passive phased array radar , so it can conduct long-range air-to-air combat, and its load capacity may reach 3 tons. It can be equipped with air fighting missile or ground-to-ground missile or aviation bomb as needed. This flexibly used trainer is especially suitable for countries that do not have high-intensity combat needs, that is, it does not need to fight against enemy modern fighter , air defense missiles or advanced anti-aircraft gun .
L-15
At the same time, L-15B plays a role in low-intensity combat by using it as an attack aircraft. Compared with regular fighter jets or ground attack aircraft, the L-15B is cheaper. Therefore, "one machine and multiple use" is the biggest selling point of L-15B in the international military industry market. At present, the international trainer market is surging, and the US and Korean models are in full swing. For example, South Korea is pushing the T-50 supersonic trainer to the international market.
L-15 trains outstanding pilots for the People's Liberation Army
T-50 supersonic trainer is a supersonic advanced trainer jointly by South Korea and the United States. Korean Aerospace Industries (KAI) is the main contractor of the machine's R&D program, and Lockheed Martin provides technical assistance. The T-50 will be used to replace the current Eagle Mk 67, T-38 trainer aircraft and other trainer aircraft to convert trainer aircraft. The combat attack aircraft models A-50 and FA-50 derived from the trainer aircraft will replace the F-5 fighter of the South Korean Air Force. There are reports that in addition to South Korea, Indonesia and the Philippines also purchase equipment with the T-50 series.
Under the current situation, it is even more necessary to add another effort to make the T-50 supersonic trainer have nowhere to sell.
If we put the T-50 "Golden Eagle" so that we have nowhere to sell, then we will not only have a killer weapon to avoid eating food. After all, delicious food should be enjoyed by the public.
