J-20 with new indigenous engine?

[Note: Thank you to Marchpole for the post.]

AFAIK this is an optics illusion caused by the exaust on the right nozzle. If you see carefully, you notice that the 2 nozzles have roughly the same size.

There are other pictures from different angles showing the same thing however. The nozzles look identical apart from the fact taht the lines between the petals are less distinct, almost invisible.

Whether this entails a new engine or even nozzle is uncertain.

Hmmm .. this is a simple cut-out from the original larger one (IMO visible but not better) !

Impressive !

Does anyone know how many flights in comparison the T-50 had at the same time after its first flight (about 4 months) ??
