It was but everything depends if its strategy is correct, India does not need to panic about J-20 or even J-15 or J-31 these aircraft are crap.The MIG 31 was a master piece's even ravelling to this day, a true master piece's.
J-31 can not carry a large payload internally if it wants to go with a decent payload everything will be outside in weapons airborne on external racks basically it becomes visible no stealth. it has short range.
conclusion it is crap only useful against small players like Vietnam or Philipines.
J-20 uses external fuel tanks and on stealth mission its shallow weapons load is unable to carry long range offensive weapons.
even B-2 has limitations once they attack there are SLBM to answer the attack and kaput, the enemy will punish with weapons of mass destruction, so basically even B-2 is crap.
Weapons have a scope of usefulness as long as they are tactical or strategic.
J-20 is tactical wepon just for export or small conflicts.
