What's up with the double aileron configuration?

There is something I like to understand, why does 3 engine requires a inlet on top? It's not a very efficient in term of air inlet. CAC could simply redirect air from the side inlet into the middle engine. See NR-349:
Not the best example, since it has double top inlet, but that can be integrated into side inlet.
Prevailing theory is cooling mechanism. Maybe related to those massive IR sensor looking things on its nose cheeks.
Is it me or does that look like it's got 2 engines?
Somebody’s been fighting the battle of Wikipedia.
Maybe it isn't so simple to feed multiple engines with a single inlet. I'd guess it wrecks the internal airflow: instead of smooth flow into a single engine, now you have additional splitters inside which I'm assuming would be movable parts. And division at the bottom would compromise IWB space.
Yes! And when tyrant Mao’s disciples take over the world into the cowshed you go Bezos and Murdochs of the world.

how the earth did China manage to get the Jump on the DARPA?
to fly something like this requires a extremely high end software and electronics
no tail flat and the shape well what can we say
China has just leap frogged the everyone in aviation history to be the first to fly a 6th generation aircraft
the size is a give away, this aircraft is meant to fly far and wide and delivery either nuclear or non nuclear warheads
I bet it can reach Guam and return back to mainland China
China has just levelled the playing field here
Kudos to China

Theory on the type of TVC used on J-36. Fairly unconventional if true.
