Looks to be a rear view of the 2nd J-36 prototype. Posted by @chaoyinsukandao on Twitter.
Chengdu next gen combat aircraft (?J-36)
- Thread starter Blitzo
- Start date
Oh, let‘s summarise since I‘m confused:
- we have a chart image of the first prototype clearly with no. 36011
- we have several images of a 2nd aircraft and the amount of changes suggest it is a different aircraft
- now we have a „clearer“ image of the same one suggesting it is likely also no. 36011 (@huitong)
Why? Just to confuse us there are two nos. 36011? Or was the first 36011 heavily modified to be now the second 36011 (IMO unlikely)
Any other theories & explanations?
This can't be 36011 because when this is flying 36011 was in Xinjiang
