A J-20 with 8x PL-15 on the outer pylon?

Looks like a supposed ‘Beast Mode’ layout with dual pylons on the wings, could result in up to 12-14 BVRAAM loadout

Well do we have info about outer missile of other 5th gen fighter?
Waiting for SPAMRAAM moment

F-35 can but using pylons that drastically reduce RCS, not sure if its able to mount double pylons either, F-22 ive never seen carry external weapons, only drop tanks


J-20S

Some are saying this is PL-17

PL-17 isn’t compatible on double pylons yet, the J-20 in the images is carrying 8x PL-15 on the wings

F22 can carry 4 amraams external (at least that we know of, could be 8 if it has inner wing stations)

Which makes a total of 10 AMRAAM/JATM and 2 aim-9

Oh lord
