Why China's Enemies Still Fear This 60 Year Old Bomber
为什么中国的敌人仍然害怕这款服役60年的轰炸机？
The H-6 bomber of the PLA Air Force first entered service in the late 1960s. It's the main arm of China's long-range strategic and naval airstrike capabilities. We take an in-depth look at the H-6 bomber through a documentary aired on Chinese media.
中国空军的轰-6轰炸机在60年代后期进入服役。它是中国远程战略和海上空袭的主要武器。我们通过中国媒体播出的纪录片深入了解了轰-6轰炸机。
以下是各国网友的评论：

It is in 60years old shape, but its avionic, weapons, engines, radars are all up to date technology.
虽然轰-6有60年的历史，但它的航空电子设备、武器、发动机、雷达都是最新的技术。

They have been upgrading and creating new variants that I once heard a Chinese commentator said the PLAAF is running out of letters. It's already up to K now.
他们一直在升级和创造新的型号，我曾经听到一位中国评论员说中国空军装备的编号正在耗尽字母，现在已经排到K了。

I'd think only the design is old, everything else is new
我认为只有设计是旧的，其他都是新的

It is what H-6 can carry they fear.
他们担心的是轰-6携带了什么？

Best plane in the PLAAF. Its not the design but the ability to carry up to 6 YJ-12s or a mixture of devastating missiles. That's got to be scary for the USN.
中国空军最好的战机。不是设计，而是携带的武器：6枚鹰击-12或混合毁灭性导弹。这对美国海军来说一定很可怕。

Were many weapons from the 1870s used during WW2?
二战期间使用了很多19世纪70年代的武器吗？

About 20 years ago, the Chinese Air Force had a discussion about the need for a new "low-cost" bomber. The conclusion was that it did not need a weapons load of more than 20 tons, did not need stealth, and had a range of 9,000 km. The proposed solution seemed to be an enlarged JH-7 bomber with a parallel two-seat layout and an internal bomb bay. Well, no doubt, it would be better to directly upgrade the original H-6 series...
大约20年前，中国空军就需要一种新的“低成本”轰炸机进行了讨论。结论是，它不需要超过20吨的武器负荷，不需要隐身，航程为9000公里。提出的解决方案似乎是一种扩大的JH-7轰炸机，采用平行双座布局和一个内部弹舱。嗯，毫无疑问，直接升级原来的轰-6系列会更好…

Apocryphal story of an old russian, ex-soviet engineer visiting China after the breakup of the soviet union:"Guys y'all aren't still flying those old tu-16's we sent you back in the 50s are you?"
Chinese:"no but actually yes"
一个虚构的故事，一个老俄罗斯前苏联工程师在苏联解体后访问中国：“伙计们，你们不会还在开我们在50年代送你们的老图-16吧？”
中国人：“不是，但实际上也是。”

The Tupolev design pedigree is evident, however the current H6 is so much more than that old warhorse.
图波列夫的设计血统是显而易见的，然而现在的轰-6比以前的要强得多。

It looks so cool! Something out of the amazing aviation designs of the 60s!
看起来很酷！这是60年代的航空设计，令人惊叹！
HeidiKernstad
The current frontline service H-6 are not 60 years old. They were all built after 2006. The new variants are:
目前在前线服役的轰-6还不到60年。它们都是2006年以后建造的。

its always surprised me how big the craft actaully is when parking next to support equipments, the design looks like an elongaded f4 phantom but its bomber size.
停在辅助设备旁边时，我惊讶于这架轰炸机太大了，它的设计看起来像加长的F-4“鬼怪”？

Even if the H-20 is launched in the future, China will need to serve hundreds of magic H-6 bombers, high-end weapons in the war will be used up in the first wave of conflict, can mass production of cheap weapon systems is the key to victory, so the H-20 service can not replace the role of H-6. The 200 Magic H-6 can carry long-range weapons to deter the second island chain including Southeast Asia, the Indian Ocean and most of the Middle East
即便未来轰-20公布，中国也需要服役几百架魔改轰-6轰炸机，在战争当中高端武器首波冲突就会使用完，能够大量生产廉价的武器系统才是获胜的关键，所以轰-20服役也不能顶替轰-6的作用，200架魔改轰-6可以携带远程武器威慑第二岛链包括东南亚、印度洋和中东大部分地区

The H-6 and B-52, perfect examples of engineering done right. Two old warbirds, updated and moderized now being flown by crews who weren't even born when they came off the production line and no doubt will be flown by the kids of today's flight crews if not their grandkids as long as their airframes last.
轰-6和B-52是完美的工程设计典范。两款老旧的轰炸机，经过更新和现代化改造，在它们从生产线上下来时，机组人员甚至还没有出生，毫无疑问，只要它们的机身还在，当前机组人员的孩子们（如果不是他们的孙子的话）也可能有机会驾驶它们。

the SAR mission makes sence, as the H-6 could cover long distances faster, locate distressed personnel, & drop rescue gear.
可以执行搜救任务，因为轰-6可以远程奔赴，定位遇险人员，并投放救援装备。

The H6 is the iron fist of the Chinese military.
轰-6是中国军队的铁腕武器。

She good no need to change what is not broken anyway.
还很好，不需要改什么，反正没有坏。
Azathoth2980
H6 is a unique design made perfect for adopting modern technology, jet power with sleek profile(body engine), and excellent low speed handling, simplicity in construction. The TU15 developed in the cold war was indeed a forward thinking design, further more this bomber has a very blend contour that is similar to civilian flight when viewed from distance.
轰-6的设计独特，完美地采用了现代技术，喷气动力与流畅的外形（机身发动机），以及出色的低速处理，结构简单。在冷战中研发的图-15确实是一种前瞻性的设计，而且这种轰炸机有一个非常混合的轮廓，从远处看像民航客机

The ole flying tube is still a reliable design.
虽然旧，但仍然可靠。

The H-6 looks nicer than the B-52. Cool-looking aircraft.
轰-6看起来比B-52好，酷酷的。
mrdelaney4440
Still younger than a B52.
比B-52年轻。
danardono4412
China has modernized the H6 with advanced radar and avionics. This bomber can also carry many missiles including missiles with nuclear warheads. And don't forget China operates hundreds of these bombers so it's still quite scary.
中国用先进的雷达和航空电子设备对轰-6进行了现代化改造。这种轰炸机还可以携带包括核弹头在内的许多导弹。别忘了中国拥有数百架这样的轰炸机，仍然相当可怕。

USA : B-52 Stratofortress
Russia : Tu-95 Bear
China : ( disapprovingly looking at any post 1980s bomber design) sorry, but true Great power must have an old,reliable, but also upgraded bomber design. So, H-6 it is !
美国：B-52同温层堡垒
俄罗斯：图-95熊
中国：（不以为然地看着1980年代后的轰炸机设计）抱歉，但真正的大国必须有一个老的、可靠的、升级的轰炸机设计，就是他了，轰-6 ！

That's why the legendary H-20 still not come out
这就是传说中的轰-20仍然没有出现的原因
TheGrantourismo
Isn't it 70 years? Production of Tu-16 started in 1953. Even H-6 had a maiden flight in 1959.
不是70年了吗？图-16的生产始于1953年，轰-6在1959年进行了首飞。
Sacto1654
The H-6 does not need to fly long ranges well away from China to be effective, since it's more a strike platform to defend against enemy ship than anything else. That's why the plane has been heavily modified and upgraded to carry the latest Chinese air to ground missiles.
轰-6不需要在远离中国的地方远距离飞行就能发挥作用，它更多的是一个防御敌方军舰的打击平台。这款轰炸机经过了大量改装和升级，可以携带中国最新的空对地导弹。

China has continued the upgrading in many arenas , including military forces , green energy , the improvement of the livelihood of its 56 ethnic groups , the minimization of the desert areas , the improvement of ecosystem , etc.
中国在军事力量、绿色能源、56个民族的民生改善、沙漠面积最小化、生态系统改善等诸多领域不断升级。

IT is not H-6, It is H6z-Pro-Max-Plus-Extreme-Ultra
这不是轰-6，这是轰-6z-Pro-Max-Plus-Extreme-Ultra版。
tvgerbil1984
Unlike Russia and the US, China never has a supersonic strategic bomber, just the H-6. Perhaps it never needs a supersonic one. The H-20 is said to be another subsonic aircraft but with stealth.
与俄罗斯和美国不同，中国从来没有超音速战略轰炸机，只有轰-6。也许它永远不需要超音速轰炸机。轰-20据说是一种亚音速飞机，但具有隐身性。
