The
FBC (Fighter Bomber China)-1, also known as the "Flying Leopard" or
JH-7, is a new type of fighting-bomber designed by Xi'an Aircraft
design Research Institute and produced in Xian Aircraft Industry Corp.
Which made its debut at the Beijing military parade on Oct. 1, 1999, on
the PRC's 50th anniversary. In 1999-2000, the PLAAF received at least
20 such long-range fighters. With many breakthroughs in manufacture
technique, FBC-1's outstanding advantages are long range, big loading
and strong power. It can take the offensive to ground, to sea and
dogfight. It reaches to the design requirements of active defense. Each
FBC-1 is equipped with 2 Rolls Royce Spay MK 202 engines. In early
2002, Xian Aircraft completed development of the JH-7A fighter-bomber,
an improved copy of the FBC-1. The success of its development fills the
gaps in the fields of Chinese fighting-bomber. |
