latest pics with the latest engines/nozzles leave the Su-57 dead for fit and finish.

Looks like they are playing with the RAM they "acquired" through Iran,Pakistan and Serbia.Now to see how well it sticks over time.

I think there is no more doubt anymore about the 2 seater

yup. Proportions are different. Someone did a comparison and the J-20S is longer than the J-20 prototype and shaped rather different. I'd want to give credit if I posted, but linking to another forum is verboten.

So why a two seater? Is the j20 hard to fly?

Pilot can concentrate on flying and fighting the plane.

The 2nd seater can do all sorts of other things, like control drone swarms.

Chin looks different on the two seater J-20.

Two new birds out of the factory.



The two seater does not have a side bay.

I don't believe that, photo is too low quality to tell.

If it doesn't have the edge tape the gaps are hard to see.

This plane has a fish like profile from certain angles. Giving it pretty good agility in the air.

Looks like I was wrong, no side bays after all?

The extra person does not take up that much room.

What would fit nicely would be twin side scanning arrays. Which would explain the +1 to run extra scanners.

Still blurry. Let's wait and see. You were right to call it that way.

A nice shot:



The J-20 with the WS-10 engine has entered serial production. The decision was made to go ahead without having the WS-15 engine ready. Retrofitting would require nontrivial changes, so these J-20As will remain what they are. The rate supposedly is 40/year. This does not currently count the two seater, but that just started testing.
