China’s J-35 fighter jet kicked off its first flight of the New Year, marking the full launch of flight-test operations for 2026.⁣
⁣
In a video released by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation, the aircraft lifted off from the runway and soared into the sky in its primer paint, often referred to as the ‘green skin’ configuration. ⁣
⁣
The J-35 is a new-generation stealth carrier-based fighter designed primarily for air superiority while also capable of air-to-ground and maritime strike missions. ⁣
⁣
The aircraft is considered a key platform supporting the Chinese navy’s transition from near-sea defense to far-sea operations.⁣
