J-XY - maybe J-35 - next generation carrier-borne fighter

What interesting kind of hybrid creature is this?? An Falcark or Shalcon or Sharcon?

It’s a play on words. Being a half shark (鲨）half hawk （雕）creature, it sounds similar to 傻叼，which if I am not mistaken is a term for idiots in colloquial Chinese.

Falcon-Shark. FC-31 was Gyrfalcon.

Isn’t that the majestic creature the J-15 “Flying Shark”?

Rumor has it that the nickname for J-35 is blue shark.

傻屌 shǎdiǎo (informal, slang) n. stupid person (usually in a joking way)

沙雕 shādiāo alternative form of 傻屌, used to avoid censorship of 傻屌

鲨(shā) n. shark
雕(diāo) n. eagle

傻屌 == 沙雕 == 鲨雕 n. shark-eagle

There you go. It's supposed to be a Chinese meme.
SAC likes to use shark to denote their jets such as a J-15 Flying-Shark. So what kind of shark can fly , eagle-shark.

I am pretty I've seen this before. Can't really remember.

Can't be F-35 that's an original design.

That’s a decent enough name. hopefully they do a paint scheme that reflects the name for air shows.

They are medium thrust engines.
