lol No one know, In face we don't even know the actual size and weight of J20...

There is no evidence WS-15 will certainly have TVC.

Actually there is every bit of evidence

Apparently video posted at the CJBDY forum showing a J-20 in yellow primer caught on film in Chengdu displaying super-manoeuvrability, including Pugachev's Cobra.

Has anyone seen it before it was deleted?

Why? At least not necessarily, the Flanker flies this maneuver since decades without TVC.

Do you mean this one? "J-20 does cobra maneuver over snowy mountain, warns India (china-arms.com)"
"https://www.china-arms.com/2021/07/j20-cobra-maneuver-snowy-mountain/"
(This site china-arms is weird. It was inactive from 2016 to 2020. It's definitely not run by PLA but could it be by US DIA?)
