In the Chinese segment of the Internet published noteworthy pictures with the flight operations on fighters of the new generation J-20. The pictures show the combat aircraft put into service by the PLA Air Force, under the wings of which you can see the pylons. They are designated as PF15.
Chinese experts say, that missiles were mounted on these pylons, which were used to hit targets at a landfill.
It’s important to note here, that just a few days ago, information came from China about testing J-20 fighters with outboard fuel tanks, when the ability to maneuver and increase the radius of combat use was tested.
In this regard, a dispute arose around a new photo.. So, it is suggested that, that new pictures with pylons are not talking about, that the J-20 was testing air-to-surface missiles and aerial bombs, and about testing flight modes with additional fuel tanks on the external suspension.

It is noted, that testing is ongoing anyway “additional features” fighter j-20. Quite possible, that the PLA air force isn’t particularly happy with the combat use of these fighters, and the volume of arms, which they are able to carry in the internal compartments.
