China's domestically-developed J-20 stealth fighter recently took part in a nighttime training exercise with J-16 and J-10c fighters in an effort to further improve the combat capability1 of China's air force, the People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF).
中国自主研发的J-20隐形战机近期与J-16以及J-10c战机共同进行夜间训练，以期进一步提高空军的作战能力。
During the exercise, the J-20 pilots used their aircraft's advantages in terms of situational
awareness2 and stealth to gain air superiority, while the J-16 and J-10c fighters carried out precision strikes on ground targets.
The training sought to take full advantage of the different
capabilities3 of the fighter jets, said He Xing, a pilot with the PLAAF.
The J-20 stealth fighter made its
maiden4 flight in 2011. A unit of three jets made an appearance at the military parade to mark the 90th birthday of the People's Liberation Army last year.
The chief designer of the J-20, Yang Wei, said peacekeeping needs not only
defense5, but also offensive capability. The J-20 jets are a major part of efforts to
modernize6 the PLAAF.
