SAC - FC-31 Grey Falcon Stealth aircraft for PAF : Updates & Debate

Yes certainly project is flourushing otherwise PT-3 would not have been made or tested. News are that PL navy has got interest in it as J-20 is a very heavy contender for catapult type aircraft carrier, it's underconstruction and a stealth variant instead or along with a j15 is only a viable option comes out to be Fc-31. But still not officially confirmed but once basic testing is done and approved according to desired standards for a stealth fighter it will be heavily funded and will be having a lot new gadgets from J-20 scaled down to fit in it.
 
Is there any progress on this with Pakistan ?


Pardon, I have no Information but I'm sure other's here have or will have if available.

J-20 being tried for naval operation on cv16 aircraft carrier. PLAAN may discard j-31 after all?!
 
The first thing that would prove testing on board will be new plat form with foldable wings. The present carrier is a jump sky type carrier and j-20 needs a catapult type aircraft carrier which is under construction yet. That's the pre requisite for J-20 a catapult. The space that j20 requires is huge more than an F-14 even. So j-31 stands a lot better chance for a carrier based fighter.
 
It's internal weapon Bay Area has been increased for Sd-15 type missiles, almost 1/2 area is weapons bay, Chinese are designing new American type cased bomb for both J type stealth. The engine casing might be just to cover the unstealth area followed by the internal weapons bay. It also might be having bigger chaffs and flare launching kit.

Photoshop, J-20 is too heavy for an aircraft carrier, there is a rumors that single engine and scale-down version of J-20 is in development for PLAAN:china:

Bro PAF has $$$ to purchase this aircraft or any upgarde plan for mirage ROSE ?
bro in 2022-2025 time frame Pakistan economy is way better than todays, we can surely buy this jet at 2022-2025 time-frame from China and as for ROSE Mirage will replaced by JF-17blk-2-3:pakistan::china:
 
Could these j/31 would be able to compete with rafael fighters which India is going to induct?
My answer is no. Buts comments are requested
