Recently, the J-35** fighter jet has been intensively reported on the Internet, and it was the first to appear in the Type 001 aircraft carrier 16 Liaoning ship, which has been made from a "training ship" into a "combat ship", which has surprised the majority of domestic netizens and foreign military ** such as theater and naval news.
The J-35 fighter, originally used as a key carrier-based aircraft for the Type 003 aircraft carrier 18 Fujian ship, is likely to be the first to be equipped on the Liaoning ship, which has been upgraded at the Dalian shipyard. The Fujian ship has not yet been formally tested at sea, and there is still a long time before it enters the ranks.
In addition to being able to take off with electromagnetic catapult on the straight-deck Fujian ship, it can also use deck glide to take off from the upturned bow on the Liaoning and Type 002 aircraft carrier 17 Shandong, two active aircraft carriers of the Chinese Navy.
J-35 is a fifth-generation ** fighter with a minimum radar reflection cross-sectional area of 001m²；The use of two domestic 12-ton thrust WS-19 "Huangshan" omnidirectional vector nozzle technology turbofan engine, so that it has supersonic cruise capability.
Aside from other factors, in terms of maneuverability alone, the J-35 will be ahead of foreign countries, but the F-35C joint attack fighter with the same performance is driven by a single F119-PW-100 engine and does not have supersonic cruise capability, which is beyond doubt.
The J-35 has advanced avionics equipment such as T R module gallium nitride active phased array radar (AESA), optoelectronic distributed aperture system (EODAS), electro-optical targeting system (EOTS), passive infrared detection system (PIR), and joint helmet-mounted display (HMDS).
Recently, Hong Kong media Ta Kung Pao disclosed the latest parameters of the J-35** fighter, with a maximum take-off weight of 35 tons and a maximum flight speed of 2Mach 2, combat radius of 1,350 kilometers, maximum bomb load of 8 tons, bomb bay and wings can hang 8 medium and long-range supersonic air-to-air missiles and air-to-surface missiles.
Hong Kong media Ta Kung Pao seems to have been authorized by the military to exclusively publish newspapers and periodicals on the development status of our army, so its disclosure of the first J-35 carrier-based fighter related index parameters, etc., has significant reference value for domestic netizens and foreign military leaders who pay attention to the dynamics of our navy's equipment.
Hong Kong media said that the maximum take-off weight of J-35 is 35 tons, this data greatly surprised the expectations of domestic netizens and foreign military **, the general perception of J-35 is a medium-sized fighter, the maximum take-off weight should be in the range of 28-30 tons, which is lower than the first generation of our Navy's carrier-based fighter J-15 "Flying Shark" The maximum take-off weight is about 325 tons.
Ta Kung Pao's report should not be wrong, its ** "AVIC" and other public information, then it means that the J-35 "Blue Shark" with a maximum take-off weight of 35 tons, it is not a medium-sized carrier-based fighter, it is definitely a heavy carrier-based fighter.
J-35, with a maximum bomb load of 8 tons and a combat radius of 1,350 kilometers, these data also look relatively beautiful, at least surpassing the ** carrier-based F-35C joint attack fighter nicknamed "Lightning" developed by Lockheed Martin.
Previously, the latest ** of the Liaoning ship disclosed by the Hong Kong media Ta Kung Pao showed that a J-35 fighter appeared on the deck. Now, it is the Hong Kong media Ta Kung Pao that has made the J-35 extremely eye-catching relevant parameters. On paper, the combat power is still very strong, and it can surpass the world's first carrier-based joint attack fighter F-35C.
Under the guidance of the 601 Institute, the J-35 has carried out intensive flight tests, completed the electromagnetic catapult test at the land training base of our naval aviation in Xingcheng, Liaoning, and also completed the glide jump takeoff from the bow of a simulated aircraft carrier set up in the training base with an upturned 12° upturn.
This is an extremely clear signal, marking the performance advantage of the J-35 fighter, which can meet the equipment needs of the electromagnetic catapult aircraft carrier Fujian at the same time, and can also glide and take off on the aircraft carriers Liaoning and Shandong in service in our navy.
Now, the J-35 appears on the Type 001 aircraft carrier 16 Liaoning ship that has completed the transformation and upgrading project at Dalian Shipyard, which is itself an obvious weather vane, indicating that this ** carrier-based fighter will be the first to be equipped with the two sliding aircraft carriers in service in our Navy.
The J-35 was born out of nowhere, breaking the situation that the old and US F-35C joint attack fighters dominate the field of carrier-based aircraft. The J-35 has the advantage of being a late-mover in the twin-engine supersonic cruise performance, and it is of great significance to improve the combat effectiveness of China's sea-borne aviation units by beating the F-35C, which does not have supersonic cruise capability for a single engine.
In the near future, when our navy truly enters the "three-aircraft carrier era," there is no doubt that the Jian-35 will become the main carrier-based fighter of the three aircraft carriers, and our navy's air supremacy and sea-to-shore strike capabilities will rise to a new height.
