The Chinese have begun flight tests of the second two-seat fighter, built on the basis of the J-20. The tests of the first such machine became known in the fall.

The Dambiev telegram channel announced the beginning of flight tests of the second two-seat aircraft based on the J-20 with reference to Chinese military blogs on the Weibo social network. The car received the tail number 2032.

The fighter was developed by the Chinese aircraft manufacturing association Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group (CAIG). The beginning of the tests of the first of these machines became known in the fall.

The aircraft became a development of the fifth-generation single-seat fighter J-20. He first took to the air in 2011. This is the first fighter of a new generation developed in China.
