We may be able to deduce the dimensions of the PL-10 from pictures of the weapons bay.

WOAH!
We finally have the definite picture of the existence of weapon bay!!
I am very curious now, of all the pictures we had before, the weapon bay is impossible to spot, even with very high res pictures, not even a seam. Maybe we are looking at "0002" (another plane) than "0001" ??

My guess is exhaust colour isn't determined by engine type...though I have yet to see a J-10 picture with the engine burning orange.
And that's one of how many pictures of the flankers in blue AB? As I've already mentioned, there're a variety of reasons in rare instances it's not the case. In this case, it could be an aborted landing (see the activated air brake?) where the AB had just been started and not stabilized yet, with one nozzle starting to have the blue hue.
I just found the picture interesting because one was blue and the other was orange.
Well, how about believing that the craftmanship on J-20 is just that good? I can't attach links yet. But if you go to the China Defence site, you'd find a group of pics (assuming they were indeed taken during one flight test) that you'd only see the bay when it was open and you see nothing when it was closed.

What are you talking about? We have had high resolution pictures of opened weapon bay doors for a few weeks already!
... simply amazing !
Do you have a clearer cockpit picture?
It really is a shame that isn't clearer.
