Chinese SAC - FC-31/J-35 5th Gen Stealth Aircraft

[Pakistan Space Agency]

The visual effect of J35 is more handsome than J35A, and I look forward to equipping WS19 in the future. Unlike the Air Force version, the Navy version is the soul of the J35, allowing this long developed project to truly land. Unfortunately, there is too little existing information, I can't wait to see it clearly!View attachment 128764

What's the difference between the J-35 and J-35A? I can't tell the difference.

this is j35,The naval version has different wing designs，Meanwhile, its wing area is also larger, making the entire machine visually wider

There were some mixed formations in the rehearsal. It is easy to understand that the J-15T carried the J-35, as they are both carrier-based aircraft. How to understand the Air Force J-16D carrying the J-20? Does it reflect that there is no air combat without electronic warfare?

That is exactly right. Remember how US lost F-117 over Serbia?

That's too much detail for a layman like me. I'm just going to see them as J-35s just like all air force and naval versions of F-35s are seen as simply F-35s.

A bigger wing means a slower landing speed, a foldable wing for storage, and a different turbine compressor material to withstand a corrosive environment. Radar optimized for the sea environment filters out the clutter from sea reflections. Stronger landing wheel in front, double wheel. Can carry an anti-ship missile. In-flight refuelling is a must!

Better one of the same aircraft ... allegedly no. 3506!

Additional point: The runway of aircraft carriers is limited, and the J35 has excellent short takeoff and landing capabilities. In addition, according to military expert Du Wenlong interviewed by CCTV, due to maritime operations, the structural strength of the J35 is higher

Great side-by-side comparison of the PLAAF J-20 and the PLAN Naval Aviation J-35.
