Xian H-20 Stealth Bomber

The H-20 is China's next-generation stealth strategic bomber — a flying-wing design intended to give China intercontinental nuclear strike capability from domestic airfields. Would complete China's nuclear triad with a bomber leg comparable to the B-2.

Teased in a 2018 Xian Aircraft promotional video showing a draped flying-wing aircraft. Unverified social media images in January 2025 may show early test flights. Development appears slower than expected due to engine and stealth materials challenges.
