Y-20, возможно, получит собственное имя "Kunpeng" в честь мифической китайской птицы, способной пролететь тысячи километров. С помощью Y-20 Китай приобретет возможность в короткий срок перебрасывать войска в район Индийского океана и даже в Африку.

The Y-20 reached another milestone in early 2016, when AVIC/XAC reported that all tasks concerning its development phase have been successfully accomplished. Following the first prototype side number 781 (c/n 01) in January 2013, the second airframe (02) acted as a static test aircraft and 03 (783) followed in December 2013. According to reports aircraft 04 was finished in February 2014, but this is still unconfirmed and is likely to be another test aircraft. During that time, a pulse assembly line has been completed at XAC and is ready for production. The fifth Y-20 785 (c/n 05) was reported as first ready for its maiden flight in July 2015, but was only recently spotted at Qionglai North. The type is currently undergoing operational evaluation with the PLAAF by the 4th Transport Division and is expected to enter service in 2017. Since its appearance at the Zhuhai Airshow in November 2014, the Y-20 has been seen at airports all over China, including high-altitude tests at Inagi Aden and Daocheng Airport.
