New images of China’s J-20 fighter have emerged, and highlight the aircraft’s new camouflage paint.
The Chinese Chengdu J-20 is a fifth-generation stealth fighter expected to enter service with the People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) in 2018.

While details of the J-20 have been kept under wraps, two models were seen conducting test flights over Chengdo on Monday, each sporting the new camouflage.

According to Defense Update, this camouflage design will likely be used on the Low Rate Initial Production models.

The J-20 soars at a top speed of 1,305MPH (2,100KMH) and features a stealth design comparable to Lockheed-Martin’s F-35 Lightning II, although with far fewer reported technical setbacks and safety concerns. The J-20’s weapons are carried internally, with a central bay believed to contain four beyond-visual-range air-to-air missiles (BVRAAMs) as well as two short-range air-to-air missiles (AAMs).
