That makes sense to me.
MiG-29

this fighter looks more practical, it is smaller around the F-22 size or slightly smaller.Shenyang is bad at playing this game, i'm not even half as excited as the J-20 moments
twin engined is logic, a the F-35 has really high thrust engines, and it weight 30 tonnes fully loaded
.
In my opinion this jet seems more like a better option than J-20, smaller is better

Engine is likely Klimov RD-93.
it seems it is, i do not think WS-13 follows even the nozzle design of RD-93
Mig-29 you are from Russia right ? Can you please help to translate whats being said on this video that Jeff found on the MiG-29KUB and the Vikramaditya. Just give us an idea of whats being said.

read the news it basicly says the same with the exception Russia will buy 24 and it has better warload.
This new chinese fighter i do not think so it will be lighter than MiG-29 at least in empty weight, it must be at least as heavy as F-35 something between 14-15 tonnes empty weight and 27-30 tonnes max take off weight.
landing gear reveals it is heavy
Thank you
Rumor has it that the J-31 is waiting for Naval aviation endorsement. Air Force doesn't seem too interested as of now. This may change, given how the JH-7A entered service with the Navy before the Air Force thought that it would like some in its arsenal as well.
