US expert Eastwood published an article in the US media "1945" saying that China's stealth bomber in future service will be the biggest threat to the United States. It can fly directly to the United States without aerial refueling and carry out covert penetrating strikes. . Currently, apart from the U.S. Air Force, which is equipped with stealth bombers, China is the only country in the world that is developing stealth bombers and has made breakthrough progress. The H-20 stealth bomber has a familiar flying-wing layout design. As usual, US experts still believe that this is a design feature copied from the US Air Force stealth bomber. According to public data, the maximum range of the H-20 stealth bomber is 12,000 kilometers. , can fly to the mainland of the United States to conduct strike operations without aerial refueling.
American experts believe that the bomber 20 has a round upper fuselage and mixed wing body similar to the B2, as well as a curved upper air inlet, and the fuselage basically has no vertical structure. If the data related to the H-20 can be believed, then the H-20’s mounting capacity will eclipse the B-52H and B-2 strategic bombers currently in service in the U.S. Air Force. The H-20 is said to be able to mount 45-ton bombs and missile , and the United States' next-generation advanced stealth bomber B21 can only carry 15 tons of ammunition. The bomb load of the H-20 is three times that of the B21 bomber , and its strike efficiency is much higher than that of the B-21 stealth bomber. Moreover, the H-20 bomber can carry a variety of weapons, some of which are not even available in the United States, such as hypersonic air-launched ballistic missiles, hypersonic cruise missiles, infrared hypersonic missiles and other weapons. More importantly, the H-20 will have complete nuclear strike capabilities. The H-20 is fully capable of attacking the Guam base on the second island chain of the United States and the mainland of the United States. This is not good news for the United States.
In addition, the People's Liberation Army's H-6 advanced bombers can now mount hypersonic ballistic missiles. In the future, the H-20 will also have this capability and can mount the anti-ship ballistic missile to conduct long-range raids on US aircraft carriers. This is very important for the US Navy. Stealth bombers can ignore the U.S. Navy's aircraft carrier fleet's protective network composed of carrier-based aircraft, early warning aircraft and warships, and can launch a rapid and deadly "decapitation operation" against the U.S. aircraft carrier at a closer distance.
U.S. experts predict that China’s H-20 bomber will undergo a test flight in 2025 and may be mass-produced and officially put into service in 2030. This will be the killer weapon of the Chinese Air Force and will be ready at about the same time as the U.S. second-generation stealth bomber B21. , to offset the United States’ once-first-mover technological advantage in stealth bombers. The H-20 bomber is undoubtedly very frustrating for the U.S. military. China's stealth bombers are catching up with the United States step by step, and even have some advantages and achieved overtake.
Once China's stealth bombers are put into service, they will give China a huge advantage. They will have a great strategic deterrent effect on the US military, because even the US military itself does not have a reliable anti-stealth system that covers the US mainland. Stealth bombers like the H-20 not only have good stealth capabilities, but also carry MALD (small air-launched decoys)/MALD-J (small air-launched jamming decoys) that can also improve the survivability of stealth bombers. These two decoy aircraft can simulate the RCS signal of a fighter plane to deceive and interfere with the enemy's radar, temporarily blinding the enemy's air defense nodes or deceiving the enemy's radar, thereby completing the task of containing the enemy's air defense system and air power. So that bombers can carry out penetration strikes. For the US military, the H-20 is like the Sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, and may arrive at any time without anyone noticing.
In the direction of the Taiwan Strait, although the United States is extremely wary of the A2/AD tactics developed by the People's Liberation Army, the situation in the Taiwan Strait has been unstable recently. If the United States believes that it has the ability to crack the A2/AD tactics at a relatively small cost, it will basically " "At the critical moment". For example, strategic think tanks have simulated U.S. B-2 stealth bombers on many occasions to carry out penetrating strikes against anti-ship ballistic missiles and radar stations on the mainland to crack China's A2/AD tactics, pave the way for subsequent U.S. troops to attack, and eliminate threats.Therefore, only by having the ability to "stop fighting with force" can the People's Liberation Army prevent Americans from misjudging their strategy and taking desperate risks. Only by having the ability to reciprocally penetrate the U.S. mainland can it better safeguard national sovereignty and interests.
What needs to be emphasized is that not only the H-20, China's military strength in general is also developing rapidly. The Fujian aircraft carrier is being launched, and China's shipyards are mass-producing submarines and destroyers , as well as various types of supercars. Hypersonic missiles are also under development, which are causing headaches and troubles for Americans, but because of this, in many cases, the more uncomfortable they are, the safer we are.
