Do you have a photo that shows the entire engine model on the top?

Honestly ... and display model of a TVC nozzle is no evidence even more since ALL images - and there are quite a few very fine close ups - taken during the show proof that it is the same engine as used before.

Looks like next big future is ripping off other people's articles again. Pretty sure they used a bot to do this since the article structure doesn't make any sense. Deino made the headline though .

I bet you guys would love to see the Eng in the J-20, try to see if he could "turn inside of me" in the F-22??? I think I could take you Eng!

As the Eng has said, this bird has an outstanding "pitch transition", even without OVT!

To me there is "nothing" quite as kool as these birds disappearing in a "vapor burst", I can't wait until we see the J-20 get "down and dirty", I would like to see it on the deck in a tail chase with an F-22.

For all you characters who claim to be able to make an objective comparison, with-out making a comparison, I know you would love to see that too ! LOL

Since when the nozzles of the J-20 have changed? Some sources, though cannot be confirmed, claimed that the two J-20 at Zhuhai flew with indigenous engines. Can someone enlighten me about this?

IMO the nozzle is never changed.
The only difference is painted/unpainted.

About indigenous engines on J-20:
Without new pictures no body knows.
But ALL the pictures we have seen shows the same AL31 nozzle.

I think it's more than just painted vs. unpainted. We've seen the J-20 having two different nozzles on the same plane at the same time, it's unlikely that they'd pain only one nozzle.
