J-35 carrier fighter (PLAN) thread

Sure but i would expect it to be a precise mockup.

yeah, has to be a precise mockup as it's used for ground training for personnel. One can even make out the layout of carrier engraved on the field

Probably one of the older airframes given that it doesn't use a retractable luneburg lense.

I tried to compare the J-35 image posted today (above) with older ones I know showing prototype no. 350001 in green primer and indeed it could be the first prototype albeit not on its maiden flight, since it lacks the prominent pitot it initially carried.

I wonder if the later prototypes sport a self-balancing horizontal stabilisers like some of the J-35As.

J35 fighter jets , GJ-11 UCAVS, KJ-600 AWACS and 6th Generation J-36 are all on the cards

Chinese Navy is turning a very important page in its history

IMO of these four the KJ-600 will be by far the most impactful of them all.

The J-36 will never be seen on any PLAN aircraft carrier!
