If we make the prototypes ourselves this mean even more delays ??

That is why I said the J-20 is a more refined version of the 1.44 with respect to progress in aviation and low radar observability need.I disagree. There are certain similarities for sure such as both possessing canards, twin engines, twin rudders, etc. The differences one could see just from the top aspect as you have provided includes (but no limited to) the following:
-J20 possesses lerx on the main wing
-Differences in edge alignments between the canard/wing trailing edges with consideration to stealth
-The shape of the cockpit
-The angles that the rudders are canted
One could also observe the following differences if viewing both planes from the frontal and side aspects:
-Shape of the nose (J20's nose is much more similiar to that of F22's nose, but so could the same be said of PAKFA's nose)
-Shape of the intake (this one is pretty significant here as the Mig 1.44 has intakes on the under sides, whereas the J20 has side intakes with DSI shaping)
-Shape of the rudder is completely different and the difference in the angles that the rudders are canted is much more obvious when viewed from the frontal aspect.

Why? We only integrate the parts that we want to change, while the basic protoype will be similar to the once Russia have. In fact we might not even see a difference at the early prototypes, since the differences should be internal once mainly (materials, avionics, possibly cockpit displays).
If the modifications are not very extensive then its ok but I afraid if we try to develop something overambitious.

When will Russia begin with the weapons test with T-50? Wold be interesting to see the weapons they are using for PAK-FA.
They are integrating randar and other systems in the latest prototypes, but they are also still developing the weapon package for the Pak Fa, so it might still take some time.
Besides A2A weapons, SEAD and PGMs will be part of the package for sure!

What do you think of French weapons in PAKFA, like MICA? would it be good to have a mix of Russian and French weapons in PAKFA. As for Russian A2A missiles I somehow dont trust them to be accurate...
