Gotta say, just by looking at what the original news piece from AVIC says, we can’t definitely say that this newly assembled plane IS the J-35. Because the team name contains “Luo Yang” (former chief designer of J-15 who passed away in 2012) it’s reasonable to assume this project is linked with the navy, but it can still be something like a LRIP J-15B or J-15D, etc. IMO a bit too early to start discussing it as if we know for a certainty it’s J-35.

The task force itself can be loosely translated as "Luo Yang Communist Party Member Commando". Its a Task force founded at Shen Yang (where Luo Yang belongs) to commemorate the late Luo Yang, who is being regarded as a party/Shen Yang hero who gave his own life finishing the J-15 project (died of myocardial infarction after J-15 successfully landed on Liaoning). Shen Yang even erected a statue for Luo Yang and the Task force member has oath to emulate his spirit etc. It doesn't mean that this task force is only bound to J-15 project.

Yes I realize that this task force is not necessarily working on a J15 variant. I was suggesting that we also don’t know for sure if they’re working on the J-35, and thus it’s perhaps unwise to start discussion and make claims while assuming that’s the case, which is what previous posts have been doing more or less.

IMO unlikely … the 2023 deadline for the Fujian is IMO not a given fact, it is likely but far from sure and I really cannot think that they immediately start with catapult trails off the carrier. So, most interesting will be, when will we see the J-35 for the first time at Huangdicun and only after a decent period of treating there off-land, I expect they start with trails off the carrier.
