By the way, what’s this?

In fact I don’t know but at least by my understanding looks like some sort of TVC maneuver… maybe a surprise for Zhuhai?

Thought provoking but it is impossible to confirm if we are seeing a J-20 with TVC. But if you asked me I'd say there should be a J-20 with WS-10 TVC. If they plan to add thrust vectoring to the WS-15, it is highly likely that they are experimenting with TVC.

WS-15 is native TVC engine, and based on the previous estimation of initial roll out in 2023, it's about time
