J-31 to be inducted soon| Pilot training reportedly in progress

[Deino]

Deino,

There was a talk about an air force version of J-35 without folding wing and lighter landing gear ... what's the status of that version?

Here it is ...

As it seems another sighting of the J-31 (?) or whatever the land-based version of the J-35 naval fighter may be designated ...

Interesting since it confirms my scepticism regarding "Pakistan will receive its J-31 as early as mid/late 2025" & also regarding the training ... but I also don't believe that the PLAN will give then -35 soon, they will need them all for their own units & training. But let's wait and see.

What did I say.

Nice one. If PLAAF is not getting J-31, is it safe to assume this bird could actually belong to PAF!?

It belongs to Shenyang . You will get yours in due course.

Great, either way, great.

Interesting comparison … J-31(?) top vs J-35 bottom

So that means Pakistan is going to be the 1st country in South Asia to operate fifth generation fighters?

No, it only means there are two slightly different variants - one carrier-based and one land-based - of the same type.
