J-35 carrier fighter (PLAN) thread
- Thread starter Deino
- Start date
Technology is constantly advancing, I think people sometimes get too caught up in the generation number, when its perfectly natural for a fighter designed in the 2020s to incorporate technology a lot more advanced than one designed in the 2010, or 2000s, even if both are in the same generation.
So J35 and J20A should really be called 5.5th gen, while F22 and early block F35 are more like F16A is to 4th gen
Source? I can't say I've heard of it.
To be fair, so far there is no verifiable and credible evidence (presented in this forum) suggesting any production fighter jet uses fly-by-light. We should restrain from repeating rumours that somehow, someday become "fact" just because it is repeated many times.

It is no rumour.
That information comes directly from the horse's mouth i.e. the system designers at Sukhoi and KRET.
The Su-57 has avionics more advanced those those that were in the F-22 or F-35. As it should. It was designed a decade later. It would not be surprising if the J-35 also had fiber optic networking.

Maybe I'm missing something ,but based on the image how do we know that its J-35 rather than J-35A?
The only differentiating tell between J-35 and J-35A when their landing gear is retracted, is wingspan/wing fold line, is it not? And based on the angle of that picture and the quality of the image, it seems like we can't actually tell whether the wing is consistent with J-35 or J-35A...
This is credible news?
