You can see how far the Chinese have come in airframe technology with the smooth surfaces seen on the J-20 airframe which is very similar to the F-22.

Photo was taken from a CAC office.

Inscription said a certain twin seat aircraft "break through"/ validation(?) team. The award description is masked. It is either J10 or J20 twin seater jet.

Nice Video of J-20

That is one of the better videos of the J-20 I've seen to date! Some excellent action photography and even the close-up shots of the really large and spacious cockpit, which brings me to my point which is I remember some post about a year ago or so where there was a new helmet these J-20 pilots were wearing but I don't seem to see it in this video. Either way, if there is no need and those helmets and standard oxygen masks do the trick, then fine. But I would think that with all the technology being touted in the J-20 that a brand new and exceptionally designed helmet with JHMCS and all the goodies in it would be on track for the pilots of this aircraft. Maybe it's on the board for the future?

Honestly, I'm actually not sure if this is real or a Photoshop image.
Overall not impossible since we know there is a tanker variant of the Y-20A, but it would be the first time we see it in action and then refuelling a J-20.
