Prototype #2001: basic flight controls
Prototype #2002: grounded prototype
Prototype #2003: electronics
Prototype #2004: weapons integration

How old was that post? I think he, and all of us must see this 2002 plane is not merely a ground test prototype

How the emergence of a second prototype is a proof that the J-20 will enter service next year or 2014?
What logic is this?

You claim they is no Proof for the appearance of second prototype. Now here it is..

I think he was referring to the white prototype that is generally not believed to be slated for flight.

 

[Blitzo]

Which white prototype was that?

Escobar, we have plenty of j-10 pictures. Please add some comments if it's on something we don't know what's going on like the one where the pilots are talking to some people. Some context would be great. Otherwise, it's kind of useless. And for the last post, just add some comments on which day it's from or something. This is not just a picture thread.
