Well Deino, it does have some very nice curves...
 
Two more. Blurry but interesting angles.

Two more and slightly new views of the "B" ... and now I'm no longer sure that this "huge" pod/pylon is actually a pylon, but only an integrated ESM-/EW-pod. The attachment points for the inner pylon seem to slightly besides that "thing".

Any comments on that ???

I was just playing around and thinking about a little bit with the details and position of these strange pods on the J-10B.

First of all they seem to be removable … which may explain the very early, clear but slightly psed picture without them.
Then, it seems that they don’t attach to the same station as the large fuel-tank or the inner/middle-wing pylon, which may interfere with both the tank and / or heavy loads … they are mounted IMO right in the middle between both slightly closer to the break of the inverted gull wing (?).

So … what are they ?? I still tend to say they are ECM-pods … but why then on that position so close to the other pylons ?
Maybe telemetry pods only for testing ??? … but IMO we’ve never seem such “telemetry pods” and esp. so huge ones on a Chinese ac before.

Any idea ??

Any specs on the IRST fitted? I think its likely to be a fair bit more advanced than the Su-27's OLS.
 
The same style air intake without the boundary layer separator was shown on the upgraded FC-1 model at Le Bourget 09.

Did they send a 2nd J-10 to Datangshan? The one visible in 2009 GE imagery is definitely not 1001, unless they repainted it.

Yepp ... as far as I know the first prototype in its white-blue-red scheme is re-done and one of the J-10S-prototypes.

Did they repaint 1001 in one of the green or grey camo jobs? They've got a FLANKER there now as well.
 
Interesting, that new inlet looks like it incorporates similar work to that tested on the JIST testbed and incorporated on the JSF. It does have its useful aspects.

No, no. 101 maybe = 01 has the white scheme with red+blue stripes ... the twin sticker is actually 1021 or 1023 - resp. the 1. or 3. prototype. You are correct with the Flamker at Datangshan, which is most likely a static testframe from the first J-11A blocks (even if some say actually a B-model ???), since it had all the additional lead-weights mated all over its fuselage.

Just found over at Sinodefense posted by tphuang ... reportedly from 28. October !

If this picture is realy from the 28. October, then it must be another prototype / preserial .... and if I'm not wrong, the long nose-probe/sensor-pitot is missing !??

While I really like the aesthetics of the aircraft, I have no doubt that whoever came up with the paint scheme was working in a toy factory before.

At least some years earlier, we won't have seen such pictures ! ... also a new kind of "official declassification".

Not sure, but most likely from 2009.
