It is surely not in service … but it is proof the PLAAF is also interested , involved and may get it indeed before the navy

If China manages to become the regional hegemon, it will likely need a smaller fighter in the class of the F-35 for potential overseas bases/export as well. J-35 in PLAAF makes complete sense.

J-35A Gyrfalcon

It was first rumored in March 2021 that a dedicated variant dubbed J-35A was being developed for PLAAF without arresting hook and folded wings. Consequently the airframe is believed to be lighter than the naval J-35, thus improves its performance. An airframe was rumored to have been transported to the 623 Institute for static tests in March 2022. It was also speculated in mid-2023 that a J-35B tandem seat version similar to J-20B could be under development for training and EW purposes. The first J-35A prototype conducted its maiden flight over Shenyang on September 26, 2023. A recent image (May 2024) indicated that at least one J-35A prototype has been flying at SAC, featuring an FC-31 style single-wheel nose gear and an IRST underneath the nose. In addition, its wing area appears slightly smaller than the carrier-borne J-35. J-35A is anticipated to be unveiled at the 2024 Zhuhai Airshow.

What’s the good range you have in mind?
F-35 does have a large fuel fraction and the F-135 is a revolutionary engine - but what do you expect the range to be for a fighter in this weight class to be good?

Guys, for J35 specifics go to the J35 thread.
