New Images Of China’s J-35 Naval Stealth Fighter, Could Depict Third Example

Recent imagery shows what could be the third flying prototype of China's carrier-based Shenyang J-35 stealth fighter. The new visuals, which depict the aircraft from its underside, come after growing indications that the J-35 might eventually operate from China's two in-service carriers, Type 001 Liaoning and Type 002 Shandong, as well as future carriers fitted with catapults and arrestor gear, including the soon to set sail Type 003 Fujian.

The images were originally posted to the Chinese Weibo microblogging website earlier in March before being shared more widely. While the precise date they were taken remains murky, it has been indicated by Hui Tong on the Chinese Military Aviation blog that the aircraft was pictured as it approached the Shenyang Aircraft Corporation in Liaoning after a test flight. That same blog posits that this could be the third J-35, although we cannot confirm that at this time.

The images give us a view of the bottom of the J-35. We know from previous photos that the overall skin of the J-35 is quite smooth for low observable requirements. The rear of the aircraft shows largely standard exhaust nozzles — although we know the J-35 has serrated petals on its nozzles, although the enhanced image at the top of this post appears to have smoothed them out. The jet appears to be wearing a ventral bolt-on Luneburg lens (radar reflector) as is customary on stealth fighter aircraft when low-observability is not needed and can also be a challenge for flying in dense airspace. The style and placement look similar to the one found on the F-22 and, subsequently, the J-20. The J-35's landing gear features a twin nose wheel for carrier operations and a similar general layout as the F-35C.

A navalized variant of the land-based Shenyang FC-31, the first flying J-35 prototype made its initial flight, at least that we know of, in October 2021, sporting a blue-green primer finish and wearing the serial 350001. The second known flying J-35 prototype, 350003, was subsequently spotted in July of 2022 with a low-visability gray tactical paint job. There was speculation that a third was pictured in flight in September 2023, although, as we noted at the time, the quality of the imagery made it difficult to ascertain whether the aircraft was indeed a navalized J-35 or a land-based FC-31 variant.

Of course, the emergence of the J-35 had long been considered closely linked with the People's Liberation Army Navy's (PLAN) future catapult-assisted takeoff but arrested recovery (CATOBAR) carriers.

For a time, it was widely assumed that China would stick with operating J-15 fighters from Liaoning and Shandong, which are both equipped for short takeoff but arrested recovery (STOBAR) operations. More capable future CATOBAR carriers such as Fujian would subsequently feature air wings that include J-35s and CATOBAR versions of the J-15, among other aircraft and drones. This may no longer be the case.

However, imagery that emerged out of China at the beginning of last month purported to show a J-35 mockup onboard Liaoning while the carrier was in dock. Then, later in February, further imagery materialized which showed the article next to a J-15 mockup aboard Liaoning as the carrier set out to sea for further post-maintenance trials.

While the possibility of J-35s performing regular operations from Liaoning and Shandong may not have been anticipated by many observers, this would seem to make sense, Andreas Rupprecht, a longtime China aerospace analyst and contributor to The War Zone, has stressed: "In my opinion [the J-35 joining the Liaoning and the Shandong] makes perfect sense," he said. "Before the Fujian is ready, especially as an operational carrier, the PLAN will need to spend a lot of time training with the J-35 on the deck and in the air. Even if the training is limited due to not having a catapult, the PLAN can gain a lot of flight hours and a lot of experience."

Actually operating J-35s from STOBAR carriers would have some drawbacks, it should be noted. While recovery is the same for both STOBAR and CATOBAR carriers, J-35s would have to make use of Liaoning and the Shandong's ski-jump ramps on the bow to launch. As such, they would have to take off with less payload, in terms of weapons and fuel, compared to launching via future CATOBAR carriers. The Fujian will feature advanced electromagnetic aircraft launch system (EMALS) type catapults, instead of traditional steam-powered catapults.

However, the overall benefit they would bring to China's in-service carriers could be significant. Alongside its low-observable characteristics, it is assumed that the J-35 will feature an active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar alongside a host of advanced sensors, as well as very capable weaponry. Above all else, it would get these aircraft out to sea and operating, where major lessons can be learned, before Fujian is fully ready.

While this is all intriguing, it remains speculative. It could turn out that J-35 is either unsuitable for STOBAR operations or developmental timelines will mean that waiting for Fujian is a better move. We will have to wait and see how it all plays out.

J-15 "Flying Shark" [飞鲨]

Shenyang Aircraft Corporation wanted to get the PLAN a carrier fighter, and with the fall of the Soviet Union there were very few people willing to sell one. Enter Ukraine, with the prototype Su-33 (Aircraft T-10K-3) still in the country for the unfinished Ulyanovsk Carrier- SAC had a chance. In 2001 they negotiated and managed to secure a deal for it. By 2009, the first J-15 was ready to fly. It used more composites and native home sourced parts than its Soviet (later Russian) ancestor, the Su-33. The AL-31s weren't as powerful as the Chinese had wanted and so they were looking and developing new ones- but for now it was good enough. 2012 marked the first landing quals- and in 2013 full mass production began. Now in 2024 there's likely 60-80 aircraft and several variants. J-15: Single-seat variant J-15S: Two-seat variant J-15T: Designed for CATOBAR (non-sloped deck) rated J-15D: J-15S with EW pods and dedicated EW role J-15B: Improved weapons, sensors and new avionics With a range (combat loaded) of 1270 km, the options for aerial refueling and a pretty heavy weapons load of both A2A and A2G weapons, it is a potent addition to China's Carrier Doctrine and another system which forms both an offensive and defensive bubble.

China’s Aerospace Industry: A Deep Dive

The Expansion of China’s Aerospace Industry

China’s aerospace industry has undergone a transformative journey over the past few decades, transitioning from a largely import-dependent sector to a robust and increasingly self-sufficient powerhouse. This evolution is characterized by significant government investment, strategic policy frameworks, and a focused push towards technological innovation. China's aerospace ambitions are part of its broader national strategy to ascend as a global leader in high-tech industries and reduce its reliance on foreign technologies.

Aviation and Aerospace Equipment and Technologies

China’s advancements in aviation and aerospace equipment and technologies span several domains, including commercial aviation, military aviation, and space exploration. The comprehensive development in these areas underscores China's commitment to becoming a dominant force in global aerospace.

Commercial Aviation:

China’s commercial aviation sector has made notable strides, with the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC) playing a pivotal role. COMAC’s C919, a narrow-body jet, is designed to rival the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737. The successful development and eventual commercial deployment of the C919 signify China’s growing prowess in manufacturing large-scale, complex aircraft. Furthermore, the joint development of the CR929 wide-body aircraft with Russia’s United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) illustrates China’s ambitions to penetrate the international aviation market.

Military Aviation:

In military aviation, China has made significant progress with the development of advanced fighter jets such as the Chengdu J-20 and the Shenyang J-31. The J-20, a fifth-generation stealth fighter, showcases China’s advancements in stealth technology and combat capabilities. The J-31, designed for export markets, further exemplifies China’s capability to produce competitive military aircraft. These developments are part of a broader strategy to modernize the People's Liberation Army (PLA) and enhance China's defense capabilities.

Space Exploration:

China’s space exploration achievements are particularly impressive. The successful execution of the Chang'e lunar missions, the Tianwen Mars mission, and the construction of the Tiangong space station underscore China’s capabilities in deep space exploration and long-term space habitation. The BeiDou Navigation Satellite System, a global satellite navigation system, demonstrates China’s commitment to developing independent and advanced space technologies, reducing its reliance on the U.S.-based Global Positioning System (GPS).

Aircraft and Aerospace Engines

The development of indigenous aircraft and aerospace engines is a critical aspect of China’s aerospace strategy. Historically dependent on foreign suppliers, China has prioritized the development of domestic engine technologies to ensure self-reliance and technological sovereignty.

Aircraft Engines:

China’s efforts to develop indigenous aircraft engines are exemplified by the CJ-1000A engine, which powers the COMAC C919. This engine is a crucial step towards achieving self-reliance in the commercial aviation sector. In the military domain, the WS-10 and WS-15 engines, developed by the Shenyang Liming Aircraft Engine Company, are integral to China’s advanced fighter jets, such as the J-20. These engines are designed to enhance performance, reliability, and operational capabilities, reducing the need for foreign engines and enhancing China's strategic autonomy.

Aerospace Engines:

China has also made significant strides in developing aerospace engines, particularly with the YF series of rocket engines. The YF-100 and YF-77 engines are vital components of the Long March rocket family, which is used for launching satellites, crewed missions, and interplanetary probes. These engines have enabled China to achieve numerous milestones in space exploration, including lunar landings and Mars missions.

China’s Decision to Implement New Export Controls on Aviation and Aerospace Equipment

In December 2023, China announced the implementation of new export controls on aviation and aerospace equipment. This decision reflects a strategic move to protect national security, safeguard technological advancements, and enhance China’s global competitiveness.

Rationale Behind the Export Controls:

The primary rationale for the new export controls is to prevent the transfer of sensitive technologies that could undermine China’s national security. By controlling the export of advanced aviation and aerospace technologies, China aims to maintain a strategic advantage and prevent these technologies from being used in ways that could threaten its interests. This decision is also a response to similar measures imposed by other countries, particularly the United States, which has enacted strict export controls on high-tech goods and technology transfers to China. By introducing its own controls, China seeks to protect its technological sovereignty and create a more balanced playing field.

Impact on the Global Aerospace Industry:

The new export controls are expected to have significant implications for the global aerospace industry. Countries and companies that rely on Chinese aviation and aerospace equipment may face challenges in accessing these technologies, leading to potential delays in projects, increased costs, and a push to find alternative suppliers. For international partners and competitors, China’s export controls could accelerate efforts to develop indigenous technologies and reduce reliance on Chinese imports. This shift could foster innovation and competition, leading to a more diversified and resilient global aerospace supply chain.

Domestic Implications:

Domestically, the new export controls are likely to bolster China’s efforts to enhance self-reliance and innovation within its aerospace industry. By limiting the outflow of critical technologies, China aims to ensure that its technological advancements benefit its own economic and strategic interests. These controls could also encourage foreign companies to establish joint ventures and partnerships with Chinese firms, fostering technology transfer and local production. This approach aligns with China’s broader industrial policies, which emphasize domestic innovation and technological self-sufficiency.

Conclusion

China’s aerospace industry stands at a pivotal juncture, marked by significant achievements and strategic shifts. The country’s advancements in aviation and aerospace equipment and technologies underscore its ambition to be a global leader in these fields. The focus on indigenous engine development highlights the importance of self-reliance in critical technologies. The decision to implement new export controls on aviation and aerospace equipment reflects a strategic move to protect national security, safeguard technological advancements, and enhance global competitiveness.

As China continues to invest in and develop its aerospace capabilities, the global landscape of aviation and aerospace is likely to see profound changes. The interplay between competition and collaboration will shape the future of this dynamic and strategically important industry. With its ambitious goals and strategic initiatives, China is poised to play a leading role in the aerospace sector, influencing global trends and setting new benchmarks in technological innovation and industrial growth.

China 'will soon be the largest air force in the world', says head of INDOPACOM

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 03/31/2024 - 18:56in Military

It has been known and publicly recognized for several years that China has surpassed the U.S. Navy in a large number of warships. But in a recent testimony at the Capitol, the head of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM) suggested that China may also soon have the largest air force in the world, a surprising assessment of its rapid modernization efforts.

“The largest Navy in the world, which will soon be the largest Air Force in the world,” said Navy Admiral John C. Aquilino, referring to the People's Liberation Army (PLA), before the Senate Armed Services Committee on March 21. "The magnitude, scope and scale of this security challenge cannot be underestimated, everyone would be challenged."

A spokesman for INDOPACOM confirmed that Aquilino was referring to the number of warplanes that the armed forces of each country have.

In its 2023 report on Chinese military power, the Pentagon noted that the PLA Air Force and Navy combined have more than 3,150 aircraft in total, not counting training variants and unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). The U.S. Air Force, in comparison, is in its smallest size in years, but still has about 4,000 non-coaching and non-drone aircraft. This adds to several thousand others in the Navy, the Marine Corps and the Army.

Experts from air power and China have expressed doubts that China would imminently overtake the U.S. in military aircraft. However, they highlighted the significant increase in China's global production capacity in recent years, specifically for its state-of-the-art fighters.

"The J-20 is now being produced in about 100 fuselages per year," said Daniel Rice, an expert on China's military and political strategy at the Krulak Center for Innovation and Future Warfare. "This is purely for local consumption, to provide the PLA Air Force with copies of the J-20. If you look at the production capacity, the F-35, about 135 fuselages per year, but 60 to 70 of these fuselages go to allies and partners."

Rice noted, however, that the J-20 and F-35 should not be compared individually.

“They have different sets of missions and capabilities,” Rice added. "We like to say that the J-20 is approximately a 4.5 generation aircraft because there are different definitions of 'generations' between China and the US."

This evaluation of quality versus quantity also comes into play when comparing the naval fleets of the two countries, while experts argue that, although China may have more ships and submarines, the tonnage of the U.S. naval fleet exceeds that of China in a ratio of 2 to 1, due to the larger size of U.S. ships.

On the air side, China is accelerating the production of the J-16, J-10 and also its maritime variants. The J-16, a multifunctional fighter, has more than 100 fuselages produced annually, while the production of the J-10 is around less than 40 fuselages per year. But again, the J-10C is not exactly the F-15EX of the USAF, but rather "the low-end or high-low mixture of this version," said Rice.

However, if the production rate increases as planned, China could overtake the US in the production of its latest fighter planes. Rice noted that the development of a national engine by China and the reduction of dependence on engines manufactured in Russia accelerated the production of combat aircraft.

J-11 combat jets.

“With the engines of the WS-10 and WS-15 series, China was able to produce a credible and reliable engine for its combat aircraft, namely J-10C and J-20,” Rice said. "Since this change in the supply chain, and together with the increase in the production capacity of their fuselages, we have seen different production facilities, such as Shenyang Aircraft Corporation and Chengdu Aircraft Corporation, increase the size of their production facilities in anticipation of higher yields."

Regional influence is another consideration when comparing the size of the fleets. In his separate written testimony to legislators, Aquilino stated that the PLA Air Force and Navy combined constitute "the largest aviation forces in the Indo-Pacific". Although the US must maintain its superiority in the long term, China's regional dominance carries strategic concerns, especially in a scenario where it tries to take Taiwan by force.

“China doesn't need tankers, because it just doesn't have to go that far,” said J. Michael Dahm, from the Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies. "China does not need a Global Hawk that can fly for more than 24 hours. Maybe you just need drones, older and more adapted aircraft that can fly 160 kilometers through the Taiwan Strait on a one-way trip."

U.S. air power is also spread all over the world, with missions in Europe, the Middle East and the country.

And although the report on China's military power has excluded drones from their aircraft count, they may play a crucial role in future assessments of the projection of military power. China is also modernizing on this front, with the recent introduction of the Xianglong jet UAS, the supersonic WZ-8 and the redesigned GJ-11 stealth Manned Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV).

"At a time when we are increasingly concerned about artificial intelligence, I would say that when we start counting unmanned aircraft, it may also quickly tilt the scale in favor of China,” Dahm said.

China's Aerospace Industry: A Comprehensive Overview

The Growth of China's Aerospace Industry

China's aerospace industry has seen remarkable growth over the past few decades, evolving from a nascent sector into a major global player. The industry's rapid development has been driven by substantial investments, government support, and a strategic focus on technological innovation and self-reliance. This transformation is part of China's broader strategy to become a world leader in high-tech industries and to reduce dependence on foreign technology.

Aviation and Aerospace Equipment and Technologies

China's advancements in aviation and aerospace equipment and technologies have been significant. The country's efforts encompass a wide range of areas including commercial aviation, military aviation, and space exploration.

Commercial Aviation:

China has made substantial progress in commercial aviation, particularly through its flagship project, the COMAC C919. The C919 is a narrow-body jet designed to compete with the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737. The development of the C919 marks a significant milestone for China, demonstrating its capability to produce large, complex aircraft. In addition to the C919, China is also developing the CR929 in collaboration with Russia, aiming to compete in the wide-body aircraft market.

Moreover, these controls are also a response to similar measures imposed by other countries. The United States, for example, has implemented strict export controls on high-tech goods and technology transfers to China. By introducing its own controls, China seeks to create a level playing field and protect its technological sovereignty.

Impact on the Global Aerospace Industry:

The implementation of new export controls by China is likely to have significant implications for the global aerospace industry. Countries and companies that rely on Chinese aviation and aerospace equipment may face challenges in accessing these technologies. This could lead to delays in projects, increased costs, and a push for alternative suppliers.

For international partners and competitors, China’s export controls could accelerate efforts to develop indigenous technologies and reduce reliance on Chinese imports. This shift could foster innovation and competition, potentially leading to a more diversified and resilient global aerospace supply chain.

Domestic Implications:

Domestically, the new export controls are expected to bolster China’s efforts to enhance self-reliance and innovation within its aerospace industry. By limiting the outflow of critical technologies, China aims to ensure that its technological advancements benefit its own economic and strategic interests first and foremost.

Additionally, these controls could encourage foreign companies to establish joint ventures and partnerships with Chinese firms, fostering technology transfer and local production. This approach aligns with China’s broader industrial policies, which emphasize domestic innovation and technological self-sufficiency.

Conclusion

China's aerospace industry stands at a pivotal juncture, marked by significant achievements and strategic shifts. The development of advanced aviation and aerospace equipment and technologies underscores China’s ambition to be a global leader in these fields. The focus on indigenous engine development highlights the importance of self-reliance in critical technologies.

The decision to implement new export controls on aviation and aerospace equipment reflects a strategic move to protect national security, safeguard technological advancements, and enhance global competitiveness. While these controls pose challenges for international partners and competitors, they also present opportunities for innovation and diversification within the global aerospace industry.

As China continues to invest in and develop its aerospace capabilities, the global landscape of aviation and aerospace is likely to see profound changes. The interplay between competition and collaboration will shape the future of this dynamic and strategically important industry.
