@ BlackEagle : Mate, your nick keeps reminding me of the Korean 'BlackEagles' from RedAlert 2 ! Ever played that game ?
^^ J-20 needs to take out round engine nozzles..
I kind of disagree here. I don't think 3D TVC is necessary at all in most of situations. The movement of the YAW axis is not very important in any combat maneuvers. Most of aircraft combat maneuvers are along the roll and pitch axis which 2D TVC already has covered.They will likely keep the 3D TVC feature, because the 2D TVC one from F-22 is not that practical.

^^^^^You're right.
The advantage of 3D TVC over 2D TVC is minimal(<15%)
Usefulness aside, I do think those round engine nozzles look ugly on airplanes like J-20 and T-50. Something really needs to be done about those.Well, we will wait to see the WS-15 engine's nozzle is up/down like F119 or it is the one with 360 degree rotation.
