J-20, with proper engines (guess what the su-35 sale is about) will spank this little fat boy like no tomorrow.

That maybe.

A bold claim.

The F-35's prowess lies not in dog fightning, even though it is relatively good at it too, but in Beyond Visual Range kills.

It detects and targets its enemy, fires off its deadly missiles, then flies off before it even gets detected.

There is no need to underestimate this jet fighter with such deadly system.

So everyone noticed..I mean the “fat boy” part.

if use the engine of su-35, the schedule of J20 project must be delayed. We can use a improved ws-10 engine to replace the current 99m2.there must be a such substitute, it is said WS-10X.

Yes it is a deadly system indeed, but only for the airforce which will operate it. It is a dead beat plane.

Su-35 never can regarded as a fifth generation fighter.The introduction of su-35 is used to fill in the current insufficient production capacity of the fourth generation fighter. Now the project of J11D has substitute the introduction of su-35.

Actually the F-35 wasn't built for dog fights. It was supposed to engage enemy aircraft at long stand-off ranges with its BVR weapon technology, and stealth to counter enemy BVR weapons. That's why it will suck if it ever gets caught in a dogfight situation.

In a nutshell, the F-35 is a lemon! A flop show of galactic proportions considering that a trillion dollars have been spent already for a no-show!

It's a whale, the F-35. Put a good radar in your plane, combined with good ground based radards, and you're good to go.

Did you know that Sprey wanted the F-16 to be without a radar, no missiles, and only guns ? A large number of F-16s was supposed to be led to the fight by a few F-15s and use numerical superiority to subdue enemy fighters.
