J-35? Or is this an unknown 5th gen?WS15 for medium 5th gen
J-35? Or is this an unknown 5th gen?
Has anything about this single engine design been revealed?It would therefore be a new single-engine design.
PLAN likes the double-engines J-35 as carrier-borne fighter,but PLAAF don't like it at all=>it's still too expensive and it has a different engine to J-20.No, the intended engine for J-35 would be the medium WS-19 (WS-13 variant interim.)
The WS-15 is a heavy engine for the J-20 and in the same size/weight class as the WS-10.

Mean can be something 5th generation plus like 6th generationNo, the intended engine for J-35 would be the medium WS-19 (WS-13 variant interim.)

Why Chinese will go for 3rd 5th generation when they know American are very close to 6th generation jets induction so they definitely focus on there 6th generation jet or atleast 5.5 th Gen these engine definitely will part of themYes going by their doctrine, PLAAF will most likely end up with a single WS-15 engined fighter as a complement to the J-20 and a successor to the J-10.
That said, if the J-35 turns out to be successful then the PLAAF might buy some. It has traditionally dealt with multiple engines in its fleet. The JH-7 has a different engine and will be around for a while and it was initially a PLANAF plane too.

Sorry I wasn't aware of this...That's well known a faked image only!
there is no such single engined 5th gen fighter in development in China atm. The closest assumption would go to J-10D.Yes going by their doctrine, PLAAF will most likely end up with a single WS-15 engined fighter as a complement to the J-20 and a successor to the J-10.

far from being ready``````
Can any one say what the video says. Are they saying WS 15 engine is ready ?
PLAAF didn't spend even one coin on J-35 projet at the past ten years,obviously they want a mini j-20 with single WS-15 as their low end fighter.there is no such single engined 5th gen fighter in development in China atm. The closest assumption would go to J-10D.
anyway, J-35 is by far the most collaborated, advanced, reliable and technologically integrated fighter in China, of course PLAAF will "buy some"`````
not only PLAAF others will buy that too!

funniest "obvious" ever`````and why should PLAAF or PLAAN spend money on a plane that is still on development? dont assume how the China's weapon acquisition processes work. it has nothing to do with your "thinking'```lolPLAAF didn't spend even one coin on J-35 projet at the past ten years,obviously they want a mini j-20 with single WS-15 as their low end fighter.
Russian are still very much behind in 5th generation from American and even ChineseProbably a Su-75 like model dedicated for export? With a single engine on high thrust, more cost friendly for foreign customers.
BTW a flyable drone for verifying aerodynamic designs for 6 gen fighters spotted at CAC airfield in Chengdu.
