J 20 Test Flight
Still the engine is not stealthy.... just like the PAK-FA test flight... however Russia will develop a 5th gen. engine... but I'm not sure about the Chinese engine industry.
J-2002 testing its engines before May Day Holiday:

J20 may be the first of many series of Chinese Stealth deign fighters..The more I look at this plane the more it appears to me to be unfighter-like. It simply does not have the graceful proportions of a fighter (think of F15, Su27, F16). This has a very disproportionately long body, and the entire size is simply enormous. I really think this aircraft is more of a strike than an air superiority fighter.
Mig 31 was a High Altitude High Speed Interceptor designed SPECIFICALLY to STOPJ20 may be the first of many series of Chinese Stealth deign fighters..
J20 remind me of MIG-31 which deign to cover large sum of land..
Mig 31 was a High Altitude High Speed Interceptor designed SPECIFICALLY to STOP
the US SR 71 Blackbird from overflying Russian airspace
Mig 31 did intercept SR 71 several times and Finally these Sr 71 flights stopped due to the fear of being shot down
But Mig 31 had a small combat radius ie 700 km
Maybe you're referring to Mig25. But for basic specs Mig25 have a max speed of Mach 3.2 (but only allowed an operational speed of Mach 2.8 so as to lengthen engine life) and service ceiling of 20,700 meters; Mig 31 have a max speed of Mach 2.83 and a service ceiling of 20,600 meters; SR71 on the other hand hand had a max speed of Mach 3.3 (its cruising speed was Mach 3.2) while its service ceiling was 25,900 meters. I don't recall of SR71s being intercepted by Mig25.Mig 31 was a High Altitude High Speed Interceptor designed SPECIFICALLY to STOP

For Recon there were MIG-25R, MIG-31 development is nearly end of Soviet days..No Sir Mig 25 Was not able to ENGAGE Enemy fighters because of a POOR radar
