J20 is envolving in an incredible speed, wait and see more coming. The current paint job is much better than the previous one.

I'm thinking 2018 would be a good year and 2022 when we have an effective number and tactics.

 

[帅的一匹]

We shall dedicate ourself to another 10 years development, 2025 will be the show-hand year.

The USA wanna irritate China by disturbing the normal pace we have for development, just ignore those clown countries bootlicking USA's arse. China will continue to grow, no one could stop it.

prototype 2011 has made steady progress toward our goals, said diffrent engines'd been installed on '2011‘？any light could be shed on it?

Definitely non AL-31 engine. It will be WS-10 on steroid or WS-15 engine.

Distributed Aperture System

Notable differences in the new jet are: F-35 style EOTS below the nose, modified air intakes and ventral fins.

 

[CrazyPaki]

looks pretty cool

 

[Superboy]

Intakes now resembles those of F-35 rather than F-22. On track to IOC in 2017.

 

[j20blackdragon]

The large number of changes would suggest that the initial rumors of '2011' no longer being a prototype are probably true. We are now looking at the pre-production or low rate initial production (LRIP) version of the J-20. In other words, the J-20 has undergone a YF-22 to F-22 transition.

I'm keen to see the wings and canards.
