if that's the case, I really don't expect J-20 before 2020. It's not a big deal, in the big picture of modernizing the military, what's a couple more years, as long as we get the essentials down. Maybe we can eve make a few more J-10B, J-11Ds in that time to increase our number of 4+ and 4++ fighters.

It makes more sense, Korea and Japan will have 40 and 100 F-35 respectively and those with manufacturing times and this and that won't come at least until 2025 in full numbers, then a number of years to achieve full combat readiness.

So we are well on schedule even if the time is 2020. A few hundred more advanced 4th gen is always good investment.

Some believe that the presence of PLA insignia on the wings might be proof that the plane got official backing from the Chinese military.
