That really cements the fact that this bird is now officially called J-35 I guess?
For that we'll need to go through the list of "which mythic creatrues we still have in the list that has not been used on Chinese aircraft" I guessThat really cements the fact that this bird is now officially called J-35 I guess?
Same thoughts here Maro.Kyo. Now all we need is an official name for the J-35.
is that an IFR probe near the radome on the bottom pic?
If you are talking about the probe that looks like it is coming directly out of the radome that really looks like a flight testing probe not going to be seen in any production version (and definitely not a IFR probe, which would interfere with the radar, bad place for the necessary plumbing, etc.).
^ the pitot tube on the prototype is still there, may. not be as noticeable because its blends in nicely where the runway and grass meet, but its there.
the only real difference I see is the turkey feathers being serrated, the landing gear being updated for carrier ops, and some sensor bump behind the canopy.
So I was going through a Toys R Us in Chengdu and I found this not-lego J-35 set that they were selling.
Just something I thought would be fun to post.

I guess so? I don't know the details however.Toys R Us still operates as an independent store in China?
A third prototype flying Deino? How many prototypes will Shenyang be building before they start working on the production fighters?

Anyone knows what is being said in the article that siegecrossbow posted above?
Top photo definitely is the PLAAF variant, with the bottom photo being the PLAN variant with the re-enforced nose undercarriage.
I agree it looks like, but how likely is it, this is only the V2 demonstrator?
I must admit I’m still so much unsure…
