Military sources said the Xian H-20 supersonic stealth bomber – expected to double the country’s strike range – could make its first public appearance at this year’s Zhuhai Airshow in November, if the pandemic was sufficiently under control. “The Zhuhai Airshow is expected to become a platform to promote China’s image and its success in pandemic control – telling the outside world that the contagion did not have any big impacts on Chinese defence industry enterprises,” a source said. But the appearance of the bomber at this year’s air show could heighten tensions by directly threatening countries within its strike range, especially Australia, Japan and the Korean peninsula.<img src="https://i.imgur.com/06CRSOb.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> [YOUTUBE]apgwoLvMWl4[/YOUTUBE] SOURCE: SCMP</blockquote>
