PAF J-35AE - News, Updates and Discussions

@Deino


Dear There is black, there is white, and then there are many shades of gray in between, which are neither entirely black nor entirely white.

There are some official announcements, some insider information, some insider speculation, some rumors, some misinformation, and some lack of information.

It would be better if all information that is not an official announcement or not available with proofs are not classified as "no information." Instead, it should be categorized into like different shades of gray based on the available information and logical possibilities.

Agreed!

Let's just say that even though I don't fully understand the customs of this kind, I am fully aware that this - or at least many things - is common practice in Pakistan. Nevertheless, I am convinced that "there are many out there, who are loud, who are cheering and boasting everything but barely know anything while those who really know, often keep quiet" for good reason!
As such, not everyone - even more so IMO just most of them - who are loud and claiming this and that as "trrust me brrother; I tell you!" knows in fact anything and are just boastfuls, show-offs and busybodies!

Remember that nonsense 2 or 3 years ago when some who are now almost swearing "J-35A will come in 2025", "PLAAF even more needs us to perfect it" are the same who then claimed "we already have J-11, J-16 and J-20 ... they already arrived, trrust me brrother; I tell you!"

And of course there is great gloating when the evil Deino is wrong, when he makes a mistake... then there is great outcry!
But I wish you would also be just as harsh in your gossip and abuse of those who only show off and are even more often wrong.
But since many of them are Pakistani compatriots, I guess I have to live with the fact that people get upset about small mistakes made by a foreigner so that the big mistakes made by their brothers can be more easily overlooked. ;)

The ‘40+14’ which will soon no doubt be all over YouTube Chanel’s like Inshort 🙈🙈 is not really worth wasting oxygen on given the random nature of the source but in my view at least, highly unlikely as an initial order. Little matter of finances for starters & fact PAF is just not that desperate for so many 5th Gen birds so quickly. So while it may well come sooner than expected, which I think is as much to do with current AC’s desire to leave a legacy than anything else, it is likely to be a symbolic purchase of a squadron, at least to start with.

Really no offence intended just my view. I truly hope that what you’re reporting is correct.
 
Mean while other than Tempest & F-35 & Indian options .......Back to J-35-AE

"J-35A, with its domestically developed engine, represents an important addition to the PLA Air Force's fighter aircraft fleet.

Air Force officer Li Lanxing said that during test flights, pilots found the J-35A highly maneuverable, with excellent handling and user-friendly human-machine interaction, enabling full combat effectiveness."

"Three J-35As have appeared to date, all with slight differences, making Joe doubtful that “they’re operational in any frontline capacity.” However, he believes the PLAAF may have received aircraft for initial operational testing and evaluation. Its current engines are WS21 turbofans, though the intended engine is the WS19..

TurboFan-19" is a long-rumored new Chinese engine. It is similar to the name of "Taihang" and "Emei", and the name of "TurboFan-19" is "Huangshan". The target of the turbofan-19 is the F414 turbofan engine, which is larger than the European EJ200 engine in terms of maximum thrust...."

The PAF Chiefs indomitable desire to leave a lasting legacy on the "sands of time" should be the most worrisome to the IAF Chiefs.....
