Came across an image on the Chinese internet of what appears to be the Chengdu J-10B. Remarkably the radome is open, showing what could well be an active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar. Though the developmental J-20 has received all the attention this year, it is the J-10A and J-10B that will be the mainstay of the PLAAF in the coming decades - and an effective AESA radar for the B version has the potential to be a significant force multiplier.
