FAKE: Sneak-peek of new Chinese stealth fighter (NOT J-20!)

[UPDATE: The picture is now confirmed as fake. No wonder then it evoked the F-35 so convincingly.]

Deino, a reliable poster of authentic imagery of the latest Chinese military aircraft on Secret Projects, has posted this image today. It's clearly not the Chengdu J-20. It is also a rare two-seat stealth fighter, which have fizzled since the A-12 Avenger and F-22B concepts were dropped. Deino has titled the image the JH-XX, perhaps implying a stealthy version of the Xian JH-7 fighter-bomber. It's difficult to tell much about the overall design. It seems to replicate the forward fuselage chine and forward-swept, diverterless inlet of another stealth fighter -- the Lockheed Martin F-35. Hmmm ...
