Sigh...

flying one

ground testing and taxiing one

Al-31 engines don't have stealthy jagged edges or IR-reduction tiles.

All major aircraft engines have the same type of blaze stabilizer. I personally saw this on the F-15, F-16, and F/A-18.

photoshoped...?

who knows!

Come on boys , don't sound so hopeless - what if AL-31 is being used for tests , i am sure it doesn't mean WS-15 isn't ready or anything but it means that its just not mature enough to risk installing on a plane such as J-20.

If you can build this plane you sure can build a god damn engine too -

We would be if it was true. But this issue has been discussed to death already. The flying J 20 does not use AL 31s.

There are two prototypes built, distinguished by the color of the nozzle. One is silvery/white while the other one is black/dark grey. If I had to take a guess, I think AL-31F and WS-10G are both used.

@ mallawcha

[rcrmj]

Thats your opinion.

Military professionals & experts on other forums disagree. Consensus, among experts, is AL-31F engines power the J-20 ATM.

A likely story.Everyone knows that if J-20 uses AL-31F engines,we will be trapped by Russkies one day.

 

[malllawcha]

i wont take foreign expert opinion serious, i hav seen so much foreign expert made up ridiculous claim and bs story about china military, as a chinese military fan, to know more about my country military, need insider inform and manufacturing knowledge to figure out the whole picture, like 1# post, translate a post from chinese forum. insider inform, manufacturing knowledge, i never see any foreign expert have them.

best example of foreign expert

the theme of those foreign expert opinion : china is incapable, steal things, steal russian's stuff, rely on russian, then his opinion is credible, he become a military expert.

i need cold hard facts, please, Mr. Expert.

Sigh....
The guy has posted the pics of a J-20 with the WS-10G just a few posts above yours.......please feel free to scroll up and check them out.

 

[milvipes]

If it indeed uses AL-31F the Russians would cry bloody murder already.

 

[ChineseTiger1986]

There are two prototypes 2001, and there is no prototype 2002.

That's why you just see the reemerged old 2001 with the black nozzles engine again.
