Mass deployment of J-20 stealth fighter, Y-20 heavy lifter and Z-20 helicopter show PLA Air Force’s transformation, state broadcaster says.
“The YU-20 can conduct aerial refueling for warplanes including the J-20, the J-16 and the J-10C, and such aerial refueling exercises have been carried out multiple times in high-altitude plateau regions and above the sea,” according to a Chinese military spokesman.
A Y-20 large transport aircraft of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Air Force has arrived in Austria to participate in the largest air show in Europe starting on Friday.
Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Air Force's Y-20 cargo planes can fly to anywhere at any time when needed, Senior Colonel Shen Jinke, a spokesperson for the PLA Air Force, answered in response to a question from the Global Times on Y-20's track during the PLA Air Force's open day event in Changchun, Northeast China's Jilin Province on Saturday.
The YU-20 aerial tanker, the force amplifier that recently entered service with the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Air Force and made frequent appearances in exercises around the island of Taiwan earlier this month, will be a star of the show at the upcoming PLA Air Force open day event with its first static display to the general public.
