The US military is completely desperate, the PLAAF's J-35A has been mass-produced in large quantities, and it can carry 6 PL-16 missiles to shoot down F-35s. The US media said: this is the perfect F-35 in the hearts of the US military.

The PLAAF's J-35A has been mass-produced in large quantities, and what surprised the US military was that the performance of the J-35A's engine is very excellent, because the J-35A is equipped with an internal boarding ladder for the first time. The advantages of the boarding ladder are very obvious, which can improve the aircraft's launch efficiency and enhance its independent deployment capability.

However, adding a boarding ladder, an internal boarding ladder is a mechanical system, including a ladder, hydraulic or electric retraction mechanism, cabin door, etc., which will inevitably increase the structural weight of the aircraft (although it may only be dozens of kilograms). For fighters that pursue the ultimate thrust-to-weight ratio and maneuverability, any weight needs to be carefully calculated.

This also indicates that our engine performance has become very excellent. It is worth noting that when the J-20 was designed, we were concerned about the engine, because initially we used Russian engines, so we did not have an internal boarding ladder.

In fact, the CCTV has previously publicly disclosed that our navy's J-35 has been mass-produced in large quantities and can be used for both catapult and ski jump takeoff. That's why our PLA soldiers said that the Fujian Ship's commissioning immediately formed combat capability, as our J-35 and J-15T have already been mass-produced and are on patrol waiting for the Fujian Ship's commissioning.

By contrast, the US military, not to mention the F-35, which has too many defects and limited production capacity, even the aircraft carrier has been in a state of delayed delivery.

Now our J-35A has also been publicly released, and it has been mass-produced in large quantities, which indicates that the number of our fifth-generation fighters is far higher than expected.

Moreover, according to the report by CCTV, the new factory built by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation covers an area of 270,000 square meters, comparable in scale to the final assembly plant of the US F-35 in Fort Worth, Texas (278,000 square meters). The J-35/J-35A pulse production line is running at a speed of 72 hours per aircraft, and the annual production capacity reaches 150 aircraft.

For the US military, the J-35 is their ideal F-35. Its aerodynamic layout is simple and smooth, similar to the aerodynamic layout of the US F-22. And its main mission is air superiority combat, with the ability to conduct ground and sea attacks, which means it has excellent supersonic cruise and maneuverability, and it can internally carry 6 PL-16 air-to-air missiles.

When facing the F-35, which is not good at air combat, it can easily shoot down the US F-35. That's why the US media said that there's no need for sixth-generation aircraft; just wait for the F-35, and the US air superiority in the Western Pacific will come to an end.
