Aviation week posted a good article of its <a href=\"http:\/\/aviationweek.com\/blog\/navweek-china-whirl\">visit on No. 171 Haikou<\/a>.   It&#8217;s certainly no surprise to me that the reporters were allowed to  take pictures and interview the captain and crew member, since China has  had this kind of &#8220;open house&#8221; on its new ships in different port calls  around the world.  The article promised an &#8220;exclusive and rather frank  sit down with Senior Capt. Zhao Xiaogang&#8221; coming up, so I&#8217;m interested  in seeing how that goes.<\/p>\n<p>We are also seeing what appears to be a new prototype of J-20 coming out  this past week for low-speed taxi test.  From what we&#8217;ve seen so far,  there is no much changes on this new prototype (No. 2012) compared to  the last prototype (No. 2011).  There might be some changes in the tail  area and around the engine going forward, but I think CAC has mostly  settled on the design of this aircraft.  We can see it below:<br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s8.postimg.org\/58phc43kk\/2012_July16_3.jpg\" width=\"500\" \/><br \/>Would be interesting to see how this proceed vs PAK-FA going forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year, China has been invited to RIMPAC for participation.
