The Chengdu J-20 is a Chinese twin-engine fighter with internal weapons carriage and a canard-delta layout. Public reporting establishes the family identity and service introduction, but configuration-specific performance remains sparsely documented.
2017 denotes air-force introduction, not the later combat-unit milestone. Dimensions, weights, speed, radar performance and inventory are not treated as established public specifications.
