Well, recall how long it took from FC-31, through FC-31V2 to eventually the J-35 prototype. I recall back in 2012 or so one of the first artworks of FC-31 was carrier based. This is not to say that a similar time could or should ellapse until the J-50H prototype, that was a mistake as i pointed with other occasions, hopefully the great delay/diddle-dwaddle in the case of J-35 won't be repeated, but there might be a few years until a J-50H could fly. Ideally several prototypes or even LRIP should be timed with the commissioning of the 004 CVN.

completely different circumstances back then.. so Naval J-XD won't take much time just like J-35.

Wait until F-47 is finally revealed, make a navalized copy of it, call it J-47. Voila!

Huh, didn't thought of this until now, maybe that's why we don't know yet the name of the SAC 6th gen, they waited to see what the americans call their 6th gen, so maybe they will indeed call it J-47 just to spite, and just like they seem to have done with the J-35.
