It's obviously not an original design.
I'm getting major MiG 1.44 flashbacks.

it screams F-22

Sweet dreams and aspirations.

Which delta/canard aircraft have intakes on the sides and which have them under the body.

not so much F22, apart from the front/canopy. the body looks like something russian.
>>34591422
He's right though.

>The J-20 is heavily based on the Mikoyan design bureau’s cancelled ‘Project 1.44’ project to develop a fifth-generation fighter for the Russian Air Force. The layout is virtually identical, with the main differences being the position of the intakes and the larger fuselage on the J-20. To give due credit to the "MASTERS OF CLONING", the J-31 is the spitting image of the Lockheed F-35 Lightning II – America's latest and greatest technological creation. However, the new project, being referred to as the Shenyang J-31, paints a much more disturbing picture than the J-20. The J-20’s heritage could be traced back to an abandoned Soviet project that was deemed irrelevant before it even got off the ground.

>Hey guys they both have a delta/canard layout and two engines, clearly one is based on the other.
By this logic the J-20 is based on the Rafale.
>>34591357
It looks like a MiG 1.44 baseline that was completely redesigned around data stolen from the F-35 program. Presumably the plane was developed for the niche role of carrying very large missiles capable of attacking the Navy and Air Force from standoff ranges from a survivable, low observable platform.
>>34591369
Since when is the f22 a bullpup plane?
>>34591609
J-20 was modified to be closer to the F-22 while the J-31 is a twin engine ripoff of the F-35.

>J-20 was modified to be closer to the F-22 while the J-31 is a twin engine ripoff of the F-35.
The J-20 borrows its bubble canopy from the F-22, and debatably the nose (it's not particularly magical, just facet design), but the air inlets and tail control surfaces have a lot more in common with the F-35 than the Raptor.
>>34591704
It's funny because the J-31 is an attempt to copy the F-22, and the newer versions make that even more obvious.

>>34591357
Pure coincidence. Different studies that has the same goals almost always will look the same at the end. It looks the same because that was what it was intended to do, super stealth with super maneouverability, the fact that the American planes does not look like the J-20 shows that they are not at that level of superiority yet. The J-20 is made by indigenous research and development that has no analog anywhere in the world. This gives it the background that China did not need to steal any inferior design from anybody but made a superior plane from scratch with honor and dignity.

A block?
Honestly I bet my pay this shit isn't stealth at all, and I'm certain it's a bad supersonic.
The stealth material is American-based, China got into it after they took the F117 pieces.

You're an idiot.
Mig 1.44 has the air ducts at the bottom like an Eurofighter and is significantly shorter and has 0 stealth unless you believe in the plasma stealth meme.

And Volga 24 is heavily based on Cadillac Sixty-Two. It has four wheel and engine in the front too!

It's not like China has a history of developing canard-delta designs
>>34591357
Sorry OP but the MiG 1.44 is not an original design, it's clearly heavily influenced by BAe's agile combat aircraft.
>>34591580
probably is tbqh
>>34595493
is that an F-18 with canards and fucked up intakes
>>34595673
It's the precursor to the Eurofighter, a mockup from 1982;
Biggest difference is the twin Tails.
As you can see it shares a fairly similar planform to the MiG 1.44.
>>34593855
>J-9VI
So yet another Su-15 ripoff? Gee, gooks sure love this interceptor.
>>34595493
It was sure a cool aircraft and Brits essentially developed the Typhoon, but it's not MiG-1.44 level of cool.
