Chengdu J-20 displaying weapon bays, missiles, and avionics during Airshow China 2018. The J-20 avionics aim to obtain situational awareness through advanced sensor and data fusion while denying situational awareness to the adversary through stealth and electronic warfare. The J-20 features an integrated avionic suite consisting of multi ...
A further development of PL-15 that allows J-20's internal weapons bay to carry six missiles simultaneously (whereas PL-15 is quad-packed). The PL-16 missile, while smaller in dimension, features a compressed airframe, folded fins, and a high-performance dual-pulse motor to deliver the same performance as the regular PL-15.
Ventral weapons bay of the Shenyang J-35A. The Shenyang FC-31 has a lengthened centerline internal weapons bay [95] with a dimension similar to that of Chengdu J-20. [55] [80] [74] The weapons bay has six internal hardpoints. Externally, the fighter has six hardpoints on the wings. The first FC-31 prototype can reportedly carry 8,000 kg (18,000 ...
The J-35A is China’s second stealth fighter, after the J-20 entered service in 2017. Its commission makes China the second country after the US to have two types of stealth fighter jets.
Q-5I(Q-5A)-Q-5 with the internal weapon bay replaced by internal fuel tank, increasing fuel capacity over 70% Q-5IA(Q-5B)-Improved Q-5I, radar warning receiver and flare dispensers added Q-5II(Q-5C)-Q-5I with omnidirectional radar warning receivers. Q-5E-Pylon with ability to mount laser-guided bombs, improved fire control system
PL-17 is much larger than other long-range air-to-air missiles, at 6 m (20 ft) long (whereas PL-15, AIM-120 are measured around 4 m (13 ft) long), which contains more solid fuel. The extended length makes the missile unfit for the internal weapons bay of the Chengdu J-20. During the flight, PL-17 would rely on inertial guidance, satellite ...
The B-1B can carry up to 24 LRASMs in its internal weapons bay, and between 6-12 on external hardpoints. U.S. Air Force During the Cold War, the B-52 bomber could carry up to 12 Harpoon missiles ...
Examples of modern U.S. fighters with weapons bays are the F-117 Nighthawk, F-22 Raptor, and F-35 Lightning II. These stealth aircraft such as the Chengdu J-20 use retractable guided missile launchers which move out on rails allowing the weapons bay to be closed while the missiles still hang outside.
