Shenyang J-35

Why are they taking it so long to put in service?
The J-20 already has 200+ units in service, why Shenyang still doing tests with the J-35 despite them having "misteriously acquired" F-35 data

Is it because it's a carrier born fighter? Is it more dificult to make it?

      J-31 is the CTOL variant. J-35 is the CATOBAR variant. Yes they are basically the same plane otherwise.

      FC-31 is by a private company and a prototype that is being made into a few J planes.

      The J-31 is the regular base version and J-35 is the naval one.

      It's not taking that long, look at the F-35, J-20, and F-22 development timelines. It's running about par for 5th gen. Yeah, they stole all the F-35 data, but they still need to engineer their own stuff, make it fit their new carriers, and figure out the materials.

      Last I heard they were switching from baked in lower maintenance stealth like the F-35 to coatings like the F-22. However, it sounded like this might be for only the ground versions, with the carrier version not doing coatings due to maintainance issues.

      This is likely to be their big export model. Part of the hold up is likely the data link and sensors. It and the J-20 have ETOS and all sorts of advanced targeting stuff but the software to make them work well is no small feat and making it work with export customers, Pakistan, etc. will be tough.

      Honestly, still a big deal because all expectations are that the J-20, and J-31 will have a significant advantage over Taiwan's F-16s and F-CK-1s, which are only being slowly upgraded.

    Because it's a private project with inferior engines and China doesn't has the budget for 2 stealth fighters right now. The J-20 (includes new WS-10, the WS-15, avionics, RAM, PL-15) is a huge jump for China and it's really expensive even for US standards.

              Seems counter-productive to build an aircraft which you can't even fit your own engines into it.

                The WS-13 is a chinese copy of the RD-93.

                WS-9 was used on the JH-7, no?

                No more counterproductive than building the F-14A with weaker engines with intention to upgrade later. In the end the F-14D engines can't be used in the F-14A. They are playing catchup and it's worth making something substandard if you're nonetheless going to produce the better plane later at scale. You don't get something good quickly but you do get something good faster if you're willing to give the whole system (design, industry, testing, operational units) a runthrough regardless.

                Makes sense i guess, but still weird seeing them pretty much using older designs when they already have something more modern.

                They don't have WS-15 yet. Yes they can build an example and take a plane up in the air with it. That doesn't mean they've figured out long term sustainment. You have to be able to make lots of turbofans at acceptable quality. Lots of Chinese engines have fewer flight hours between deep maintenance than their Russian equivalents historically. Having a good design is only one step.

      It's for the carrier. For Air Force the J-20 and J-10 fit doctrine better.
      Atm the blocker is emals, once the emals design and spec is well and truly locked in the J-31/35/XX whatever will be in mass production.

      >inferior engines and China doesn't has the budget for 2 stealth fighters right now.
      Define "inferior", it's engines aren't as powerful as the J-20's but it's smaller and therefore better suited to carrier ops.
      J-31/35/XX budget is entirely private. Take a look at the MiG-29K to see how this kind of project is developed.

      There will be export variants in the future.
      Saudi already ordered a production line

      >Saudi already ordered a production line
      As real as the Su-75 Checkmate.

      J-31 is the land variant, CTOL.
      J-35 is carrier variant.
      They want to have a production line for the J-35 first via a government order when the new carrier is finished.
      Then they'll be able to export the J-31 with the benefits of mass-production/economies of scale.

      There's no real rush as there is no country ready to buy right now.
      Countries right now would either go for established 4.5th gens (Rafale, Typhoon, F-16) or are close enough to America to buy the F-35/F-15.

        >Define "inferior",
        Inferior compared to alternatives that China has today. The RD-93 are problematic engines, too unreliable and Russian (political problem). That's why I call them "inferior", the WS-10/WS-15 are clearly superior.

        China is changing those for their own local equivalent/copy, the WS-13. AFAIK China reliability requirements are 3000-4000 hours, similar to the late RD-33 and best AL-41/31, fairly better than other russian engines. That's closer to the west (+5000-6000 hours) than the RD-93 (~2000) that is simply bad. They intend replace the RD-93 in the JF-17 for the WS-13 too.

        Besides that it seems that China intend to upgrade the J-31/35 with the fairly more powerful WS-19. IDK if the WS-19 is of the same weight class tho.
