Recently released J-35 core performance data, this fighter is equipped with a twin-engine turbofan-19 engine compared with the United States F-35 fighter, not long ago, a U.S. media exposed a mainland J-35 carrier-based version of the photo, in this photo, we can clearly see that J-35 has removed the airspeed tube, showing more outstanding technological advancement. However, some American experts have baselessly accused us of plagiarism. This kind of baseless accusation is undoubtedly a contempt for the hard work and independent innovation of our scientific research team.

The core data of the J-35 was announced, the twin-engine WS-19 crushed the F35, and American experts said that the F35 design was plagiarized

It is worth mentioning that by the end of this year, the mainland Fujian ship is expected to be officially put into service. At that time, the J-35 fighter will be used as a carrier-based aircraft to form a strong combat effectiveness together with the Fujian ship. This will be a big step forward in the building of the mainland's navy and an important manifestation of the mainland's national defense strength.

The U.S. media has been paying close attention to the J-35 fighter this year, but the pictures they can obtain are limited to non-professional photographs on Chinese websites, and they have never been able to get a glimpse of the J-35's performance data. But now they don't need to speculate anymore, because the official data has been officially released, and the Hong Kong media, as the official mouthpiece of the mainland, accurately listed the J-35 performance data given by AVIC.

However, this news has been difficult for some American military experts to accept. They once thought that the J-35 was a fighter against the F-35, but now it seems that its performance is more advanced than that of the F-22. According to official data, the maximum level flight speed of the J-35 on the sea surface reached Mach 2.2, which is remarkable. The turbofan-19 Huangshan engine it is equipped with is even more eye-catching, this engine uses omnidirectional vector tail nozzle technology, which greatly enhances the maneuverability of the fighter.

The application of omnidirectional vector nozzle technology makes the J-35 perform well at high speeds, far surpassing the F-35. What is certain is that the J-35 has supersonic cruise capability, and whether the F-35 has this capability is a big question mark. Because the engine performance of the F-35 has been brought to the extreme, it is extremely difficult to make a breakthrough.

This news undoubtedly brought quite a shock to the US military circles. They may not have expected that China's aviation industry would develop such advanced fighters at such a rapid pace. The formal commissioning of the J-35 will certainly inject new vitality into the mainland's national defense cause.

The frontal radar reflection area of the J-35 fighter was confirmed to be extremely small, only 0.01 square meters. Although this data is only an approximate range provided by the official, it is enough to show its excellent stealth performance. In fact, this performance is enough to be on par with the American F-22 fighter, and even surpass the F-35 fighter in some aspects, achieving a performance increase of several times.

In terms of electronic radar technology, the J-35 has shown its advancement. It uses gallium nitride technology and is equipped with an active phased array optoelectronic distributed aperture system. The application of this technology makes the J-35 extremely accurate and sensitive in radar detection and target recognition. In contrast, the F-35 fighter may still be using relatively backward biochemical technology, and its performance is obviously not comparable to that of the J-35.

Previously, some military experts on the Internet had speculated whether the J-35 would use gallium nitride radar. And now that speculation has been hammered. The gallium nitride radar technology used in the J-35 fighter not only improves its combat capability, but also further consolidates the continental's leading position in the aviation industry.

The J-35 fighter has shown amazing strength in terms of ammunition carrying capacity. Its internal bomb bay and wings have the ability to carry up to eight medium- and long-range supersonic air-to-air missiles, fully demonstrating its excellent firepower output. What's even better is that according to the different mission requirements, the J-35 can also flexibly mount the tape recorder 158 YJ-83K anti-ship missile, as well as the YJ-91 anti-radiation missile. This missile is not only capable of posing a threat to shore-based or sea-based radars, but also can effectively hit enemy electronic warfare aircraft and AWACS aircraft, demonstrating its diverse strike capabilities.

Judging from the take-off weight, the J-35 fighter has reached an astonishing 35 tons, which is 16 tons more than the F-35 fighter. This means that the J-35 is larger in size than the F-35, and one of the benefits of such a design is that it can carry more fuel, and the J-35 has significant advantages in endurance and combat radius, which can better meet the multiple needs of modern warfare. The J-35 fighter has excellent performance in ammunition carrying, mission flexibility and endurance, and is an advanced fighter with high combat capabilities.

According to official data, the J-35 has a combat radius of up to 1,350 kilometers, which is about 200 kilometers ahead of the American F35A fighter. In operations at sea, the combat radius of carrier-based aircraft actually represents the range of fire strikes of aircraft carriers. With the aircraft carrier as the center and a circle with a radius of 1350 kilometers, then any target in this circular sea area, the J-35 has the ability to effectively attack it.

It is worth noting that if we take into account the flight range of the missile, the attack range of the J-35 can be further extended. In fact, after counting the missile's flight range, the J-35's attack range is able to increase by about 400 kilometers. This means that the J-35's firepower coverage far exceeds its base combat radius, further enhancing its deterrence and strike capabilities in maritime operations.

It is estimated that at present, only three countries in the world, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, have the potential demand and strength to introduce advanced fighters. Of the three countries, however, Saudi Arabia is the only country that has shown a strong willingness to massively expand its military and upgrade its equipment. As for Pakistan, given its military budget and current level of equipment, even the introduction of fighters such as the J-10E needs to be carefully considered, not to mention the J-35E, which has better performance. Therefore, if there is indeed an export version of the J-35E in the future, then it is likely to be tailor-made for Saudi Arabia, after all, it seems that Saudi Arabia is the most likely customer of this high-end fighter at present. Of course, given the complexity and instability of the situation in the Middle East, the export version of the J-35 may not be in a hurry to be launched to the market in a short period of time.
