Ok ... the old issue again!? :-)

I want an actual authentic image of the exact situation as described and in CHina it is common to use a randome for for "illustrative purpose only". Thanks.

Anyway, I would love to see areal one with 62x0x serial numbers.

So far I have never noticed that the fixed front part of the J-20's vertical stabilizer is latticed or meshed! At least for the 201x prototypes.

I guess the meshed window is inlet of cooling air to reduce Infrared signature of exhaust?

Su-57 has similar design but no meshed window.
Such details make me believe J-20 is better at stealth than Su-57.

After discussion with dudes on CD, I were told it is a old photo and this design was removed. Ouch....

Following several reports including an eyewitness at least 2 - 4 J-20s were flown to an aviation brigade within the ETC around noon. This corresponds to earlier reports, the 9th Brigade in Wuhu would become the first operational frontline unit to receive J-20 fighters.
