In one of the most anticipated moments of the international aerospace event held in Zai, China, the new J-35A fighter was officially unveiled, with a flight display. This development represents a milestone for the Chinese military industry, as the J-35A fighter, considered the “F-35 of China”, promises to revolutionize the country’s technology and aerial capabilities. The aircraft, which is still in the development phase, has been seen in some unofficial low-quality images previously, but now it can finally be observed with greater clarity, generating speculation and worldwide interest about the future of Chinese military aviation.
The J-35A fighter, developed by Shenyang, is classified as a fifth-generation aircraft and features a series of technological improvements. Visually, the J-35A fighter resembles the American F-35, a point that has already led to accusations of industrial espionage, but also has important differences. One of them is the absence of an engine for short takeoff and vertical landing, which gives the Chinese fighter a slimmer design and less weight, but raises questions about its internal storage capacity for weapons and fuel.
One of the most notable features The J-35A fighter jet’s unique feature is its refinement in terms of stealth. The serrated engine configurations help to scatter radar waves, a sophisticated technology that puts it on par with the F-35 and J-20 fighter jets in terms of stealth. This aspect increases the fighter’s competitiveness against other air powers and demonstrates China’s progress in stealth and stealth capabilities.
Strategic plans for the J-35A fighter
Although the original design of the J-35A fighter was aimed at export, new evidence suggests that the Chinese Navy is also likely to adopt a version adapted for aircraft carrier operations, aligning it as a cost-effective complement to the already known J-20 fighter. This initial version of the fighter, focused on land operations, features a smaller wing area, which differentiates it from the naval version that has not yet been officially revealed but is expected soon.

The export version of the J-35A fighter is expected to have a promising international market, especially among countries seeking alternatives to the restrictions imposed by the United States on the export of its own fifth-generation fighters.
Unlike the F-35, whose sales are exclusive to a select group from US allies, the J-35A fighter will offer greater freedom of operation, attracting the attention of countries that want to acquire advanced technology without traditional limitations.
A significant advance in Chinese military technology
The J-35A fighter jet’s advanced development stage indicates an imminent entry into service. This aircraft could represent a game-changer for China, allowing the country to expand its fleet of fifth-generation fighters in a more affordable and effective way.
China, with the J-35A fighter, seeks to strengthen its presence in the global military market, offering a viable alternative to the North American F-35 and, at the same time, enhancing the capabilities of the Chinese Air Force itself.
With the debut of the J-35A fighter jet at the Zai aerospace event, China is signaling to the world that it is ready to compete with global military powers by offering a high-tech, stealth aircraft comparable to the F-35.
The revelation of “China’s F-35” opens new possibilities for expansion of the Chinese military industry and shows that the country is determined to reach new levels of influence in the aerospace sector. The international community remains attentive to the developments of this launch and the implications it may have on the geopolitical and military scenario.
