I hope this is the right place to ask this, but how does the J20 compare to its 5th gen counterparts, particularly in its supermaneuverability? I do understand that such close engagements are rarely possible given awacs, systems, missiles etc, however, it would be better pr at airshows to showoff those moves (although I feel that's not the way of the PLAAF).
As such, is it possible for the J20 to do everything the Su57 does, like post stall maneuvers? Or is the airframe not built for that?
Post-stall maneuvers are really just more for show this day and age. For air superiority 5th Gen fighters, maneuverability during supersonic regimes, how good your BVR/HOBS missiles are, are much more meaningful metrics.
But to answer your question directly, the J-20 cannot achieve the same level of subsonic maneuverability as the F-22 or the Felon. It's aerodynamic configuration is made for achieving the same level of supersonic performance of its main counterpart, the F-22, while having inferior engines. That comes at a cost - worse subsonic cruise lift to drag ratio and post-stall maneuverability among other things.
So until the WS-15 is in service, the J-20 can at best achieve the same (or slightly better) level of supersonic performance as the F-22, i.e. best in class, while having potentially inferior transonic performance and almost definitely inferior subsonic and post-stall maneuverability than the F-22 and the Felon.
That doesn't mean it's an absolute slug at low speeds. Far from it. It can still achieve exceptional subsonic maneuverability compared to traditional 4th Gens without TVC, it's just that the F-22 and the Felon are brilliant at those speeds.
However, with the J-20A, that's an entirely different story. We're looking at potentially the undisputed king during supersonic and transonic performance (thanks to it's overcompensating aerodynamic design, now with perhaps the overall best 5th generation engine), and extremely formidable also during subsonic speeds (the vanilla J-20 tbh can already deal with the others with the PL-10 already even with worse post-stall maneuverability).
