J-20... The New Generation Fighter III

Almost certainly yes.

One, the third prototype from CAC usually has mission avionics therefore wouldn't have the nose probe, and if both 2003 and 2004 flew the forum would be buzzing with it for about a day before the actual pics came to light. And the second pic just looks wrong -- 2004 looks massive and where's its rear end or was it taken so perfectly the plane's tail was hidden by the hangar?

Yea.

Those are position lights for flying in formation, the hud is also glowing green.

Unfortunately it was too heavy.

You are just a wealth of information, it is definitely unique although welded, as were parts of the F-22, and the J-20 wing/fuse is one piece, a forging or casting?

I'll buy that.

Looks like they removed a panel from underneath for some reason. It doesn't looked damaged and it looks like it's from where the possible EODAS is located.

Dear fellas,

Happened to browse this @ http://tuku.military.china.com/milit...03_2077398.htm... Mentioned about 4 changes to J-20 night version.

Got confirm source with night flight? I think it is CGI. But just sharing around.

Yeah clearly it's a PS, and I don't think the original artist meant for it to be an obvious PS at that...

It would be interesting to see the J-20 engine noozles to be changed into like those of F-22...

I'm not sure how many APU J-20 has, but each engine has its own starter for a total of two exhaust ports.

maybe some air bleed vent for engine, engine related for sure

blue arrow more likely electronics, hexagon shaped with some glass/plastic

No, there are two.

When do we get to see these guys' footage?
