First of all, I don't know anything about aerodynamics. However, as a scientist, I know that there is always multiple solutions to the same problem. The Von Karman ogive and the Sears–Haack body may be ONE excellent example of aerodynamics, but it cannot be the only one.

You don't need to be an expert in aerodynamics. Someone at your level only needs five minutes to fact check MiG-29 statements to realize that he injects much of his own fantasies into his explanations. In short, he is employing

by using technical jargon to obscure the truth and throw you off.

Wikipedia has the perfect explanation of what just happened:
Proof by intimidation (or argumentum verbosium) is a jocular phrase used mainly in mathematics to refer to a style of presenting a purported mathematical proof by giving an argument loaded with jargon and appeal to obscure results, so that the audience is simply obliged to accept it, lest they have to admit their ignorance and lack of understanding.

What's happening with the back fuselage? All the markers indicate some testing was done there as well

You surely see the complete image ... the question is, if the J-20 looking thru the window is actually 2003 ! :p

I am not sure what we're looking at there. Something seen through the window? On the first floow height? Doubtful.

Also, isn't the scale a bit too large? whatever is seen looks to be right there, mere centimeters behind the window. Again doubtful.

More likely explanation would be a reflection in the glass. But as we can see on other windows, they open upwars. If they are opened upwards, no reflection could be seen from the ground. If they are not opened but remain straight - it is again unlikely that is a reflection as the camera would have to be higher up from the windows. Camera seems, if anything, to be a bit lower than the windows or at the same height. And since windows arent on ground floor but higher up it is again unlikely a plane parked outside could make such a reflection. Also, the scale. Unless plane is parked RIGHT NEXT to that window, we wouldnt see such a big cut out of the cockpit but a larger part of the plane.

All in all, pretty weird. I'll wait for better images.

J-20? Middle section of the fuselage looks bit thinner and there is something off with the wings.

Or perhaps it's all just my imagination combined with poor quality of picture.

Oh...within that window.

It does look like the opened canopy of a J-20 parked just behind the factory wall and its window above.

But I agree with Totoro. A lot doesn't seem right with the picture: 1. the angle of the shot. 2. The J-20 canopy cannot be that near to the window. etc.
