China has augmented its operational units with additional numbers of Shenyang Aircraft Corporation (SAC) J-16 multirole and Chengdu Aircraft Industries (Group) Company (CAC) J-20 stealth fighter aircraft.

中国增加了沈阳飞机公司（SAC）歼-16型多用途战斗机和成都飞机工业（集团）公司（CAC）歼-20型隐形战斗机的数量。

 

Janes assesses that China may have inducted 15 new SAC J-16s and 11 CAC J-20 fifth-generation stealth fighters into service since January 2023. These inductions support ongoing efforts by the People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) to replace its older aircraft.

简氏估计，自2023年1月以来，中国可能已经引进了15架新的SAC 歼-16型战斗机和11架CAC 歼-20型第五代隐形战斗机。这些飞机进入服役支持了中国人民解放军空军（PLAAF）正在进行的更换旧飞机的努力。

 

With these additions, the PLAAF potentially has 233 J-16s in service (not counting seven specialist J-16D electronic warfare (EW) aircraft) and as many as 127 J-20As, according to Janes Satellite Imagery and Analysis (JSIA).

根据简氏卫星图像与分析（JSIA）的数据，有了这些补充，中国人民解放军空军可能有233架歼-16型在役（不包括7架专业歼16D电子战飞机）和多达127架歼-20A型。

 

The data suggest that J-20As are augmenting PLAAF air brigades equipped with CAC J-10 Meng Long single-engine fighters and J-16s. In some cases, such as with the 56th Air Brigade, J-20As could be replacing J-10B and J-10AS aircraft operational within that unit.

数据表明，歼-20型正在扩充中国人民解放军空军航空旅，配备CAC歼-10“猛龙”单发战斗机和歼-16型。在某些情况下，例如在第56航空旅，歼-20A型可能会取代在该部队内作战的歼-10B型和歼-10AS型飞机。
