Description

The Shenyang FC-31 Gyrfalcon (Chinese: 鹘鹰, Guying),[2][3][4] also known as the J-31[5] is a Chinese prototype mid-sized twinjet 5th-generation fighter aircraft developed by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation (SAC). The official nickname published by SAC is "Gyrfalcon", though it has also been referred to as the "F-60" or "J-21 Snowy Owl" (Chinese: 雪鸮) in some media reports,[6][7][8] or "Falcon Hawk" by some military enthusiasts.[9][10] J-XX nomenclatures in the Chinese military are reserved for programs launched and financed by the People's Liberation Army, while the FC-31 plane was developed independently as a private project by the aircraft manufacturer.[11][12]
