O_O Flankers are huge compared to J20!
Zhuhai Airshow 2022

I think the issue is three fold.
1) possible lens distortion due to the angle of the shot.
2) Frontal profile is always smaller than side profile.
3) Flanker is taller than J-20 since the engines hang under the fuselage. This is compounded by the fact that the J-16 is a two seater with a very prominent hump. It also has very large vertical slabs. J-20’s small vertical slabs, which make it look very long when viewed from the side, makes it look small frontally.
Surely a gatlin is more persuasive.

What is going on here?
Seriously, why are monks seen at just about every Zhuhai show? Are they from a nearby monastery, or have they blessed the opening of an exhibit?
How do you say "Waco" in Chinese?
I wonder what they have to say about all the (functioning) hypersonics
Stole US designs/science then rushed development to get there first. Meaning the US hypersonics would be superior when (if) they come out.
2 rules of thinking like a western "journalist:"
1. Western stuff is always better, no matter what.
2. There is no excuse too out there to explain what rule 1 doesn't seem to be true.
Did you mean "whacko", as in crazy, or "Waco" as in the domestic terrorist incident in the US?
Do you happen to know which company is this?Various stealth coatings and radar absorbent materials.
