How many are there now?

Photos of 15 J20 have been seen. Pessimistic count is 15 aircraft. At least 20 are in service judged by the serial numbers.

Numbers produced?
Confirmed in service = 20 (by serial numbers, including yet seen #62008)
Rolled out, in flight tests or delivered but not confirmed in service > 6

Mass production is expected to begin in 2020, with new engine (TH-10C?)
