Interesting; the naval variant's canopy should have a brace in it.
Seems rudders should be the same size on both models?
Both models are wrong compared to the real things. After experiencing some many times, I don't automatically trust informations from such event even if they are from official source, similar to the PLA and AVIC social media channels.
The models
J-35 -> J-35A
Also, the shape of the cut in the J-35 model is kind of against aerodynamic and stealth principles. I have never seen anything like that. Guess people who made it aren't graduates from aerodynamic engineering.
In the real things, J-35's rudder is full length along the vertical stablizer. J-35A's rudder is only partial length of the stablizer. And the cut is also different. The top edge of the rudder is in line to the airflow which makes sense without saying.
J-35 -> J35A

Hopefully they are flying out to conduct sea trials.
Interestingly, I heard a rumour that says the J-35/A may be the first production fighter to use fly-by-light.
