There is every reason to believe that Chengdu will equip the J-20 for a deep strike just as the F-22 is prepared for the deep strike mission, it does not take away from its primary mission, it does give the PLAAF another ace up its sleeve against the locals who may have advanced Western AA or L/O aircraft available. The J-20 while a completely new design, does use certain elements and design features which originated on Western aircraft, to imply that reverse engineering is more difficult, or as difficult as the invention, design, testing, and manufacture of the original, is an idea propagated by those who are reverse engineering from others best efforts to bring legitimacy to their work. I certainly don't wish to criticize, but I do want to see credit given where it is due, I have in fact had others take credit for my original ideas or their execution and it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. It is far more honorable to say yes I took your design and improved on it or whatever.
I do believe the J-20 will have an internal gun, so no I don't see the problem, if in fact Chengdu looked at the data and decided that four A2A missiles were sufficient internal armament, and that weight might be more effectively used for fuel which is also a strategic factor in most A2A combat engagements, if you can't stay and fight that is bad, if you do stay and fight, but loose your aircraft due to fuel exhaustion, that is equally bad, right???? brat

From what I read there was some bigwig at CAC. The 2002 took off and did a fly-by for the supposed bigwig. And then it left and never came back.

Maybe it switched to 100% stealth mode and after that it becomes invisible and that's why no one seen it!
Anyhow so how many prototypes do we have two or three? Is there one for static ground testing, I assume that would be the third one

It accelerates to light-speed and then open the wormhole to enter the fourth dimension space?

Look at the 100% stealth mode on 2:49 - 3:13. No one knows it whereabout after flying off for that 50 odd seconds 
Not only that... it transformed into a bird after the disappearance... Hmm... so rumors speaks true. The J-20 is actually a transformer at heart.
