So J-35 also smokes huh

No surprise there, literally everything with a jet engine smokes

yeah but, kinda unfortunate for J-35 specifically cuz it ruins the aesthetics imo. The plane gives off a very elegant vibe, until you see the smoke

At the end of the day it's a jet equipped machine. US survived 20 years of having the world's only and at the time most aethestic 5th gen which also gets ruined in motion when it smokes. We will do just fine too.

I doubt they opted for the traditional pivot tails in the production variant tbh.

Spotted again. According to the OP, the image was not taken in Shenyang, but he didn't specify where.

Posted in the J-35 thread, though I think you're right posting it here. The silhouette looks like the 35A instead.
