At present, the Chinese Navy currently has the 001 aircraft carrier 16 "Liaoning" ship, the 002 aircraft carrier 17 "Shandong" ship, and the J-15 carrier-based fighter is the absolute main force in performing air combat and sea and ground attacks.
J-15, nicknamed " Flying Shark ", has a maximum flight speed of Mach 2.5, a maximum range of 3,500 kilometers, a combat radius of about 1,500 kilometers, and a maximum take-off weight of 32 tons. It is a world-famous heavy carrier-based fighter jet.
has 12 hangers on the aircraft, which can plug in "Pili"-12 medium-range air-to-air missiles, "Pili"-8 close-range combat missiles, , "Eagle Strike"-83K anti-ship missiles and "Eagle Strike"-91 anti-radiation missiles, etc., and perform various combat tasks such as air combat, anti-ship and ground strikes.
J-15, with high range, large combat radius, high ammunition load, etc., has surpassed the non-stealthy "Rawn" - M and F/A-18E/C carrier-based fighters abroad. However, in airborne radar and avionics, it is inferior to these famous carrier-based fighters from abroad, and the comprehensive combat performance of both sides is unique.
Under the premise that the powerful navy has successively equipped the carrier-based F-35B/C joint attack/ fighter with stealth performance, the J-15 is a non-stealth fighter, so there is a technical gap with the F-35B/C, and it will obviously be in a very unfavorable situation when confronting or fighting in the air.
In this context, the Chinese Navy took a fancy to Shenfei self-raised funds to develop the FC-31 "Falcon" fighter , which was originally used for export, and asked it to develop a military aircraft suitable for use by the Chinese Navy aviation, which is the J-35, the "Sea Five" stealth carrier-based fighter that has obtained the official number of the military.
Now, the "350003" J-35 carrier-based fighter jet with the "August 1" military emblem logo has come to an end, and is about to enter the official mass production stage, and will soon become the main force of the Chinese Navy's carrier-based aircraft unit.
J-35 will officially replace the J-15's position as the main carrier-based on the Chinese Navy's aircraft carrier in the future. It not only has the performance of taking off from electromagnetic catapult on the 003-18 "Fujian" aircraft carrier, but also has the ability to skip and take off from the two aircraft carriers, the Liaoning and Shandong.
Once the J-35 is officially included in the list, it will become the world's second type of stealth carrier-based fighter jet that has been successfully developed. In the field of stealth carrier-based fighter jets, there will be no technical gap between the Chinese Navy and the powerful navy. It has great strategic significance for the Chinese Navy and enter the rare stealth carrier-based aircraft club in the world with its head held high.
From the technical parameters of the FC-31 fighter jet disclosed on the display board when Shenyang Aircraft participated in a foreign air show, the maximum flight speed of the J-35 is Mach 2.1, the internal fuel is 1,250 kilometers of combat radius, and the maximum load capacity is 7.8 tons. These indicators have exceeded the famous F-35B/C stealth carrier-based fighter jets abroad.
J-35, the flight control performance of twin-engines, especially when encountering dangerous situations such as air parking , pilots must be able to handle emergencies more calmly than single-engine F-35B/C. In the field of stealth carrier-based fighter jets, the J-35 has certain latecomer advantages over the F-35B/C.
Judging from the interface diagram of the J-35 airborne weapon disclosed on the Internet, the size of the J-35's built-in bomb bay is beyond the imagination of Chinese netizens and can carry 4 supersonic anti-ship missile (see the picture included in this article). This ability to strike the sea is powerful globally.
is a J-35 airborne weapon system. China has specially developed a supersonic anti-ship missile weighing hundreds of kilograms, which can be stuffed into the J-35's belly, with a flight speed of Mach 3 and a range of about 300 kilometers.
At present, there is no report that the F-35B/C is equipped with the anti-ship missile , and the J-35 has excellent anti-ship naval combat capabilities. This type of supersonic anti-ship missile can be launched outside the "Standard"-2 ship-based long-range air defense missile defense zone, posing a huge threat to large and medium-sized surface ships at sea, and also ensuring the relative safety of the J-35.
J-35, a hidden bomb bay on the belly, can also carry 4 "Pili"-15 long-range air-to-air missile . With its powerful air-on-mounted active phased array radar, it is the first to detect and lock air targets hundreds of kilometers away, and guide the "Pili"-15 missile to hunt targets.
When obtaining air superiority or sacrificing local stealth performance, the J-35 can also plug in air-to-air missile , air-to-ground missile and precision bombs, or even ordinary aviation bombs . It implements air combat and ground and sea strikes. It is a multi-functional fighter.
J-35, this "Sea Five" carrier-based fighter with stealth performance, will take a new level after it is officially included in the list, and at least run alongside the navy of a powerful country.
