In 2011, China signed a $500 million deal for 123 AL-31FN Series 3 engines.
J-10B production began 2 years later in 2013.
We now have even more evidence that J-20 production will begin in 2016.
If Russian engines were needed, a large engine deal should have been signed in 2014.
Even more ironic, Russia announced a Su-35 deal in late November, but with no mention of any engine sales packaged with that deal.
Furthermore, the J-10B has now officially entered service (yellow serial numbers) with domestic WS-10 engines.
I think if we put all the clues together, we come to the conclusion that China doesn't need Russian engines anymore.
