"But he [Loren Thompson of Lexington Institute] said the J-20 appears to
have a particularly small radar cross-section only from the front, somewhat
like the U.S. Navy’s F/A-18E/F Super Hornet
"In particular, he [Richard Aboulafia of the Teal Group] said, the Chinese
have difficulties developing engines. One of the J-20 prototypes is
reportedly powered by the Shenyang Liming WS-10 engine, which has suffered
catastrophic failures in flight * * * Aboulafia said the J-20 might not even
be all that stealthy from the front, thanks to its canards, which reflect
radar energy as they rotate during flight.

(a) The en.wikipedia.org has a page each for "ground-attack aircraft" ("
aircraft with primary role of attacking targets on the ground or the sea
with greater precision than bombers and prepared to face heavier low-level
air defense") and "strike fighter"; both refer to the (almost) same thing:

"Energy analysts say state-owned Chinese companies are paying a high premium

let the Chinese buyers learn new techniques to get at hard-to-reach shale
gas by explosive or hydraulic force, known as fracking
