J-20 OFFICIAL NAME IS "BLACK EAGLE"

Flanker is a football term. Frankly it isn't that bad when compared with Fishbed or Fagot.

NATO callsigns for fighters always begin with Fs so Peregrine Falcon probably won't be available.

Flanker/Flanking/Flanked is a battle term meaning a non-frontal attack i.e. going around to attack from the side or the rear.

Fagot is a English slang term for a male homosexual.
 
A fishpot is a pot that holds fish.
A frog foot is an animal with the foot of a frog.
A fishbed is set of pebbles that form the floor of an aquarium.
A flanker is someone that flanks.

I wonder whats so special with the F word for the westerners.
I think F for fighters and F... for codename.
 
Given fiercesome animal names are fastly running out after flying dragon, flying tiger, flying leopard, flying eagle..., I suggest a unique name for it from Chengdu that gurantees no one would dare to emulate:

Flying Giant Panda! :D
 
what about "Stealth Dragon" or "Dragon Fist " ( as the fist contain 5 fingers... means 5th generation):sniper::chilli::china:
