Prototype #2016 is actually quite close to production model. I would say it might actually be the last one or two prototype before limited production.cool . I will wait for final product or atleast final specs . I guess it will be for Shoot and scoot role unlike PakFa or F22 which can tail any versatile aircraft

1. How "the source" know "how F-35 perform in sensor and cyber warfare capability" ? to conclude J20 as good as F-35The sensors and cyber warfare capability of the J-20 are as good as Lockheed Martin's F-35, the source said.
..........
The J-20 development has been done at a faster pace than Russian T-50 fifth generation fighter.
What "level" is F-22 or PAK-FA? Everything is mere speculation.One thing i am proud of this program is its our first 5th gen fighter from Asia . But i like to be careful before studying its capabilities . there are many challenges to get a level of F22 or PakFa.
Long range is a given, as the plane has a large internal tank. How did you arrive at the "moderately good stealth" part? First, what is your standard of good? You can't measure RCS with your eyes and it's not dependent on size (i.e. B-2). Second, the delta-canard shaping with leading wing edge and thrust vectoring were designed to have good maneuverability in high subsonic speeds in the first place, so how did you arrive at the conclusion that it can't dogfight?J20 on my view :
Good Range
moderately good stealth to be called as 5th gen fighter better than EF or Rafale
High speed
Medium altitude
short of Dogfight capabilities .Inferior to 30s , EF rafale F15 j11 but superior in BVR thanks to new missiles(yet to be developed but on its way and thanks to its stealth with reduce range of getting detected and locked by enemy)
Major changes in airframe is not possible unless completely new fighter will be produced which is likely .
Because each of these two projects have dedicated futuristic engine and more than enough experience.What "level" is F-22 or PAK-FA? Everything is mere speculation.

You should think about these points below :
- no better way of guaranteeing a radar reflection and compromise of stealth†than adding canards to the aircraft.
Thats the reason you wont see Canards in all (ALL) 5th gen fighter . There is a good reason for doing so .

2)Engine nozzle stealth compromised due to heat generated by high thrust engines to propel over all fat body of larger fighter like J20 will be more !!! View attachment 258658
good one but epic fail . its 6th gen technology yet to be developed . thats generation leap from 5th gen . please dont compare j20 with 6th gen ,,,
Where is the supposed "futuristic engine" for PAK-FA? It's an AL-31 derivative. Russia has yet to develop to develop the 117 engine. Don't count your chicken before it hatches, especially when Russia aviation industry suffered from chronic funding shortage and brain drain for the past 20 years.Because each of these two projects have dedicated futuristic engine and more than enough experience.
No, you should think about these below. The presence of canard does not automatically mean RCS return will be put above the low observable threshold, nor does having a larger airframe.You should think about these points below :

No, the fail is on you. Canard designs were proposed for SAAB's next generation fighter, US Naval Advanced Tactical Fighter, South Korean KF-X as well as Boeing's 6th generation concept. All of those have the requirement of being low observable, so obviously the presence of canard does not exclude a design from being considered "stealth".good one but epic fail . its 6th gen technology yet to be developed . thats generation leap from 5th gen . please dont compare j20 with 6th gen ,,,

The 117S engine had grounded 1 prototype and destroyed another already:

No, the fail is on YOU, for failing to understand what I tried to teach you guys a long time ago.No, the fail is on you.

The T-50 is reportedly inferior to the J-20 in terms of its avionics, the material used to make the plane and its stealth capabilities, and it iss uncertain whether it will enter service at all. Production of the US F-22 has halted after 187 planes came off the line and many of the aircraft have been grounded due to a problem with its oxygen supply systems. The F-35 has faced interminable delays and its overall capabilities do not seem to match up to the T-50, never mind the J-20.
If China’s air force were to be equipped with 500 J-20s, it would rank first among the world’s air forces, according to the website. The J-20 does not currently have a carrier-based variant and China is yet to establish an overseas air base, so its primary objective will likely be to protect China’s airspace and air defence capabilities.
US congress has decided not to replace all f15s with f22 upon seeing the high maintenance and limited multi-role capability. F15s would remain in service until new stealth aircraft or probably non-stealth better agility multi-role fighters will be developed instead. Stealth fighter only limited to intercept role or deep interdiction strike taking over role of f117.
The f35 too might not be built in large numbers bt as supplement to fighters they intended to replace due to very limited armaments carried internally. It is more suitable for attacking strategic targets such as enemy command centre, SAM sites, logistics while air support and combat air patrol roles are done by conventional fighters.
Navalised j20 will only materialize after China managed to build proper catapult launch system allowing it to take off on full fuel & payloads attacking targets deeper inside enemy territories.
F-15s are being planned to be upgraded. And no doubt the F-35 will be built in large numbers.
