Just a few updated shots and a video since the anniversary of the J-20 reveal.

not a lot of news from Chengdu regarding stats or performance but plenty of media out there now.

Firstly the video...

LOL, typical modellers...

I thought the same as you.

I meant to post this in the planes trains and boats forum... the hazards of having too many tabs open at once

It's looking pretty maneuverable for it's size and that certainly looks like quite a large internal weapons bay in it's belly.

I think that is the pertinent point.

I wonder if this will be deployed on their Carrier?

Hmm.

Seems to have some interesting tech - inc diverterless inlets.

Engines look small for its bulk, and it looks 'long' and perhaps too stable?

I don't why, but those pics just remind me of Clint Eastwood and Firefox

It is isn't it? It's almost just missing the down-turned wing tips.

It's such a ridiculously awesome looking piece of kit... unlike the F-35 which is simply too tubby to live.

Easy to hotwire & hide in a lake then

Another good picture from the rear end.

Interesting how the exhaust gases are not visible from any angle other than directly behind the aircraft.
