I really like them. Would you take commissions?
 
The Xian H-20 (Chinese: 轰-20) is a stealth bomber design of the People's Liberation Army Air Force, due to enter service in the future. the aircraft will feature a wing design similar to that of the Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit, and will seek to replace China's existing fleet of Xian H-6K bombers.
This drawing is just a guess‌~

Why would you give it tails?

But why? Tails are another reflector and I don't see how the nation who has J-36, J-XDS, and large unmanned flying wing drones as large as the B-21 raider has any qualms with flight control systems without tails. That CG you posted is also really old and horrible. It's so bad it looks AI generated but I know it isn't because I've seen it before AI was a thing.

What I'm saying is I feel like you ought to put a bit more thought into your drawings, it seems like you gave it tails for the sake of tails.

You are absolutely right~
 
Why are the tails asymmetrical? LE of the closer one is straight edge while further one is jagged. Trailing edges are the inverse.
 
Actually, it's not that complicated. I think it should just be a very ordinary flying wing design. The reason it hasn't appeared yet is mainly because there's no urgent demand for it.

Which is kind of a BS argument really. There is always an urgent demand for strategic aviation. In China that demand should be even higher because they essentially lack proper intercontinental bombers and rely 100% on modernized Tu-16s (domestic H-6). Truly in a ship of theseus manner these have nothing in common with their soviet forebearers, but they're still limited in their capabilities.

Now, if the claim goes that modern missiles do the heavy lifting, then H-XX can be cancelled entirely, saving funds for other programs.

Quite frankly, given how the next gen tactical fighter experience a speed run, given US advances in the realm, it's unlikely that the PRC looks at the B-21 soon entering service and seeing mass production and thinking "this is fine". They have been meticulous in closing capability gaps across the spectrum over the last decade and a half, but in this discipline they decide to sit this one out?

It doesn't pass the smell test, if it was any other country, we'd call bullshit. I don't see why this nonsensical explanation is waved through by the PLA watcher crowd. Especially as a modern strategic stealth bomber could give the PLAAF capabilities they never had previously, unique capabilities. And with the right munitions, the effects against naval targets far away from the Chinese mainland can be tremendous.

So it is to be assumed that there is a second redesign going on, because someone can't make up their mind of what they want, introducing requirement creep in order to one-up the USAFs B-21. Or alternatively XAC is not up to the task and struggling hard to make progress on the program. And given that XAC is most famous the Y-20 airlifter and the vintage H-6, it's not hard to imagine that a large scale, VLO, intercontinental bomber might give them headaches beyond what would anyone has ever imagined.

It's like saying the USN stopped development on rail guns because there's no urgent need. No, they just couldn't figure out how to meet all their requirements without theoreticals that don't have a practical counterpart.
 
I think we will have a better chance of seeing the J-36 and the so called J-50 enter service sooner than the H-20, I certainly won't be holding my breath waiting for it to appear.
