J-20 is currently the most advanced fighter jet in China and is the second air-dominant five-generation fighter after America’s F-22 fighter.
The R&D time of J-20 fighter is slightly later than F-22, so to some extent, J-20 has a technological advantage compared to US five-generation jet. For example, J-20 fighters have all the equipped helmet display system and photoelectric scanning system installed on F-35 fighters.
According to analysis, the biggest advantage of the J-20 is its voice control system, which is unique in the world. There is no such system in any other country in the world. This voice system is very advanced and can command all the subsystems on the aircraft. In addition to controlling the aircraft, the system can also launch air-to-air missiles, which means that the pilot can launch a missile with a single click. It reduces the pilot’s operation and to a certain extent, enhances combat effectiveness of the fighter.
In an air battle, if performances of the two fighters are very close, the pilot’s quicker judgment of the air situation is the key to defeating the enemy.
In the era of second-generation fighter, aircraft operations were generally mechanized, and there were few internal instruments. It was relatively simple for pilots to judge the air situation. By the era of third-generation fighter, there were more and more electronic products inside the aircraft and the functions of the aircraft became more and more complicated. Such an operating system brought great pressure to pilots, so it was very unfavorable to judge the air situation.
In the era of four-generation fighter jet, many systems inside the aircraft have been highly automated, but even so the pilot’s operating pressure is very high, you need to switch between different flight modes under different situations, more importantly, in addition to viewing the air situation, the pilot also has to keep a close eye on the display of the internal system of fighter, even in advanced F-22 and F-35 fighters, so how to improve the pilot’s judgment in an emergency has become a major problem in combat effectiveness of fighters for various countries.
The emergence of J-20’s voice control system has solved this global problem very well. The voice control system can greatly reduce frequency of use of the pilot’s hands, so that the pilot can concentrate on maneuvering the fighters.
In an air battle against the clock, the voice control system can greatly reduce the time for the pilot to input instructions. If a missile is to be launched, the flight must first unlock the launch, and the display must be closely watched. In addition to this, a lot of operations must be performed, while the voice control system of J-20 fighter only requires a word to launch a missile.
According to some Chinese expert, J-20 fighter’s voice control system contains 100,000 characters and 89 dialects, and its recognition rate can reach 100%. This means that no matter where its pilots are from and whether he speaks standard Mandarin, he can be perfectly adapted to the voice control system of J-20 fighter.
