Now could the PLAAF be nice and release the exact dimensions of the J-20?
Pretty please?

Nobody from current and perspective Chinese clients needs AESA. The FC-1 has so far sold surprisingly poorly, given the fact that the concept of a mid-tech lightweight single-engined fighter in the $20-30mil range is an excellent one.. An FC-1 with AESA will sell even worse. You buy Chinese if you want to save on procurement cost and operating cost, not if you want state-of-art.

Stop trolling in the Chinese thread.

fact

FC-1 exports: 100 and another 100 to come. sure its all exported to one air force but far more than the below ones
Gripen: many countries but total, under 50. lease don't count
Rafale: 66
super hornet: 24

also FC-1 is being built for Azerbaijan and Sudan.

Gripen - 36 (Brasil) + 26 (South Africa) + 12 (Thailand) = 74 airframes

Rafale - 24 (Egypt) + 24 (Qatar) + 36 (India) = 84 airframes

There´s no confirmation of any JF17 sale to either Sudan or Azerbaijan

Well at least your numbers on the SH are correct.

Pakistan is a program member for the FC-1, their planes count roughly as for "exports" as German Eurofighters. In fact, there was no single FC-1 exported as of yet, the first ones will be for Nigerian AF in 2017-18.

All the other numbers you have there are completely wrong.

also FC-1 is being built for Azerbaijan and Sudan.

There are no FC-1s being built for Azerbaijan and Sudan, none of these countries has signed a deal.

Radar plate showed in J-20 maquette doesn't occuy all possible space, maybe a rotating arrangement like the Gripen E one?

I don't think that's a mockup of the J-20. Nose geometry looks different and the J-20 doesn't have an EOS on the nose.

True. The dimensions are too small. The location of the IRST is odd. This is probably a generic systems display. Showing the IRST input on the the displays etc. Though some of the components could be headed for future J-10 (J-10D?) and JF-17.

That's my thinking too. Not the first time we've seen one of these generic mock ups in Zhuhai.
