China's most advanced stealth fighter jet J-20 could be developed into a bomber, electronic warfare (EW) aircraft and a carrier-based variant, Chinese military experts said on 16 January as latest reports suggested a two-seat version of the warplane is under development, as reported by ChinaMil. Having variations that other countries do not possess will greatly expand the Chinese military's capability in an asymmetric warfare, analysts said.
