Video: China’s J-20 stealth fighter successfully flew over the Tsushima Strait 中国歼-20隐身战机成功飞越对马海峡

On July 26, CCTV Military reported for the first time that a Chinese J-20 stealth fighter jet successfully flew through the Tsushima Strait. This news quickly garnered international attention. The Tsushima Strait, a strategically sensitive waterway connecting the Korean Peninsula and Kyushu, Japan, is strategically located. The J-20’s silent passage through the region showcased the technological advantages of China’s stealth fighters and sent a strong strategic signal. The J-20’s operation further validated its “omnidirectional stealth” capabilities. Despite long-standing deployments of US-made F-35 stealth fighters and various anti-stealth radar systems, Japan and South Korea remained unaware of the operation. 7月26日，央视军事首次公开报道，中国歼-20隐身战斗机成功飞越对马海峡。这一消息迅速引发国际关注，对马海峡作为连接朝鲜半岛与日本九州的重要水道，战略位置十分敏感。歼-20无声穿越这一地区，展现了中国隐身战机的技术优势，同时释放了强烈的战略信号。歼-20的行动再次验证了其“全向隐身”的性能。日韩方面虽长期部署美制F-35隐身战机和多种反隐身雷达系统，但对这次行动毫无察觉。

The J-20 flew across the Bashi Channel several years ago, and this passage through the Tsushima Strait further demonstrated the reliability and combat capabilities of its stealth technology. For the PLA, this was not only a technological demonstration but also a “real-world exercise” for its wartime strike chain. In future conflicts, the J-20 could instantly destroy enemy air defense radars, communications hubs, and command centers, opening air routes for follow-on forces. Not only is the J-20 technologically advanced, but it also demonstrates a significant advantage in numbers and production capacity. According to CCTV, China has already commissioned over 300 J-20s. The large-scale deployment of the J-20 reflects the strategic upgrade of the Chinese Air Force. From its initial designation as a “sharp blade force” to its current “theater-wide deployment,” the J-20 has transformed from a high-end stealth fighter into a “mainstay” of the Air Force. Currently, the Southern and Northern Theater Commands have fully completed their J-20 deployments, and the Eastern Theater Command has already fully equipped three brigades. 早在几年前，歼-20便曾飞越巴士海峡，此次穿越对马海峡进一步展现了其隐身技术的可靠性和实战能力。对解放军而言，这不仅是一次技术展示，更是对战时打击链条的一次“实战演练”。未来冲突中，歼-20完全可以在第一时间摧毁敌方防空雷达、通信枢纽和指挥中心，为后续部队打开空中通道。不仅技术领先，歼-20在数量和生产能力上也展现了强大优势。据央视报道，目前中国已列装超过300架歼-20。歼-20的规模化部署背后，是中国空军战略升级的体现。从最初的“尖刀部队”定位，到如今的“全战区部署”，歼-20已从高端隐身战机转型为空军的“主力机型”。目前，南部战区、北部战区已全面完成歼-20换装，东部战区更是早早实现了3个旅的全员接装。
