What is the range of the J-35 compared to J-20 and F-35? I read that its bigger in size than F-35, so even if it has 2 engines, it might have more range? What the current estimate?
J-35 carrier fighter (PLAN) thread
- Thread starter Deino
- Start date
Early Flanker combat radius, so 700-800NM
Is it combat radius or full range? If its range then its much smaller than F-35, which has a range of 2,800 km.
It's combat radius of course
What is the difference between the J-35 and the J-35a?I think these are J-35s, not J-35As.
The J-35 is for the PLAN (carrier-based), whereas the J-35A is for the PLAAF (land-based).
The J-35 has noticeably larger wings than the J-35A.
The rear roots of the J-35's wings intersect/overlap with the front roots of its horizontal stabilizers, whereas the rear roots of the J-35A's wings are separated from the front roots of its horizontal stabilizers.
The J-35 has a dual-wheel front landing gear, whereas the J-35A only has a single-wheel front landing gear.
The J-35's rudders run along the entire rear length of its vertical stabilizers, whereas the J-35A's rudders only run about 90% of the entire rear length of its vertical stabilizers.
