@huitong update your website bro.
At least the alleged images seem to be consistent with one another that is, one engine appearing different to the other with different exhaust colour, and all are on the right side of the aircraft.
Would need to see the inside/afterburner of the engine to be sure... they can try different nozzles solutions for stealth, ir suppression, thrust vectoring and so on. Quite hard to be 100% sure that's a new engine and not a modification.
Somebody said it is not WS-15, There are new WS-10 variants with TVC more like the kinds we had seen in J-10B.
TVC flight control development and testing. That said, the different flame /afterburner color is a very big tell that they may be two different engines, and one of them (left) looks like it’s a WS-10.
Is there really a rationale for a WS-10TVC J-20? WS-15 could be ready before 2025.
