For test flight safety and security, all aircraft should be filled with the double of quantity of kerosene than needed, if my memory is not wrong...

What type of engine J20 use now?

What type of engine J20 use now?

My guess is that it uses a WS-10X variant.

This may have more thrust that a regular WS-10A at the expense of engine life.

Will it be WS15?

Old pictures, some of them are showing the two J-20, #2001 and #2002, together...

So far, all J20 still installed with AL31F.

J-20 cockpit

According to the spottors' drawing, the #2001's cockpit looks like this -

A very old picture suggests that the first version of J-20's cockpit should be something like this -

But as a technical demonstrator, especially for the first one, no need to integrate all electronic, just what is necessary for the flight. Don't forget how it looked like the cockpit of YF-22 and YF-23...

I found this from sinodefence. This was spotted today near SAC... J-20 before paint job?

seems it is not J20, J20 is CAC project, it is not logic, I think is anothor project of SAC, the second picture is a little weird, can't confirm it, maybe VTOL plane, wait for another surprise.

And maybe it is just a fake toy, someone make it.
