Chengdu J-20 5th Generation Aircraft News & Discussions

[shuttler]

Because 2011 is rumored to be a pre-production aircraft, i.e. it's no longer a prototype.

any noticeable modification to the previous prototypes?
or is that equipped with WS-15?

I do not believe the PAF is in need of such jet, as its mission profile is not designed for Pakistan, neither would be its operating expenditure.

However, that being said, there is no doubt that advanced technology that is being used by J-20 or any of the other PLAAF jets will not be implemented on board existing PAF jets' upgrade packages (downsized AESA, slim-profile PGMs, HMD/glass cockpit, etc) or simply be part of future PAF's fighter (J-10B )

The inlets have obviously changed.

Also note the new yellow structure under the nose. Chinese EOTS?

Ignore the J-10. Instead focus on the bottom left.
