Wow, I'm really out of the loop aren't IBro, It doesn't have side bays.
Will it carry 2 on wingtips, like the F-35?

Can hold six PL12.
Are You sure ? I know models and CGs usualyl show that maximum load-out, but since the J-20's bay also can hold only four large AAMs and I don't think the FC-31's bay is larger, I'm a bit sceptical.
So far we haven't even seen the bays.

i think PL12 is medium AA missile, maybe future will have ER version, not sure other member。
I don't think so, but besides that even an ER-version does not make the weapons bay larger.
what is means it can improvement from rocket itself, like improve missile engine, solid-fuel,etc.
PL12 i read many place just list as medium AA missile with range about 70-80km. new improvement version possible reach 100-120km than will be long range.
any idea which month?The second flight is likely to take place soon.
any idea which month?
Hope they're also developing advance medium range missile based on PL-15 with 160+km range.Yes, but my point is that IMO that bay is simply not large enough to fit 6 PL-12 !
Upppss ... first time something like PT-3 is mentioned !
Like the J-20 program, it's expected that the FC-31 would be an evolutionary process.
PT-3? That's fast [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106].Upppss ... first time something like PT-3 is mentioned !
In geral YES, but for a program that was about a year ago nearly on the edge of being cancelled a PT-3 is a giant leap ... and IMO a clear sign that it is not only an export-project.
