Nice CG, it gives a rough idea of the J-20 in action.

Good, the Fifth Prototype (2013) is coming as well, WS-15 could be used as early as next year. J-20 is on schedule for 2016-2017.

If J-20 comes ready in 2018, it is already a major achievement. If it comes out on 2017, I think it will shatter a lot of people belief, especially from the West analysts.

The West analysts predicted it would be in service already.

The West analysts predicted it would be in service already.

The West analysts predicted the 2020s equipped with WS-15 and some predicted 2016 with Russian engine while our military official gave it 2018 with WS-15. My prediction is 2020s with WS-15 as well. It looks like we are way ahead of schedule and I have to say I am impressed with our development.

As far as i knew, it will be 2018 PLAAF equip J-20 stealth fighters.
I personally like J-31, it's still mysterious for J-31's destiny. I wish China J-31 can export to foreign nations.

J-31 is a baby compare to J-20. J-20 is the real big boy because J-20 has double-engine. There is a reason the US never export two engine F-22 but instead they make the F-35 single engine for export. They claim it is more reliable but we know the truth is the US don't want their allies to match their two engine F-22.

The PLAAF may choose 310 if it does then it would be a high low mix of fifth gen fighters for the PLAAF. Personally I hope the China does not export the 310 project just for revenue.

Thats not true. The F-22 was designed with air dominance in mind, it has a limited ground attack capability. The F-35 is a mule that was supposed to carry out roles the F-22 cannot. China will use both of its jets in a similar configuration.
