'Feibao' or 'flying leopard,' recently appeared at the Zhuhai Air Show for an aerobatic performance.
'Feibao' was developed and produced by the China Aviation Industry Corporation's First Aircraft Institute. Tang Changhong, chief designer of 'Feibao,' said that the successful development of the new 'Feibao' signifies that China now owns the sole intellectual property rights to a main fighter-bomber, equipped with precise three-dimensional combat capabilities in the air.
Tang said the development of the new 'Feibao' pioneers digital aircraft design, enabling China's aircraft design technology to be completely in line with advanced global standards.
