J-35 carrier fighter (PLAN) thread

[Deino]

Apparently according to the Guancha Trios in one of the latest (if not the latest) paid ChaHuaHui (察话会Au) podcast, the J-35 has already conducted CATO and BAR operations on Fujian during her latest sea trial.

In fact I'm most surprised why we altogether have more and better images of SAC's J-XDS at hand than from the J-35! Even more what's the current status of both the naval variant and the landbased version? Is it indeed in LRI-production already ... and when will we finally see it?

Because the J-35/A is the world's speediest 牛夫人. (jk)

In the meantime, recall that Shandong's first J-15 launch footages (which occurred during one of the latter sea trials) were published right on the same day as Shandong's official service entry with the PLAN (if not after).

Hence, we shouldn't be surprised if this (footages of first CATOs for both J-15T/D and J-35) happens again for Fujian and any subsequent Chinese CV(N)s.

just think about how long the J-20 has been in service, and the official has not released any details even about the 718 engineering aircraft. The PLA just love to keep secrets.
