Red Alert For India? China’s Naval Airpower Soars; Fujian Carrier Launches J-35 Stealth, J-15T Fighter And KJ-600 Radar Jets – Watch

Yeni Delhi: Beijing has brought sea aviation to a new level. The People’s Liberation Army Navy (Plan) approved the operations of the first-equipped aircraft carrier Fujian, the new generation J-35 Stealth Fighters, J-15T single-seat fighters and KJ-600 Air Bornne early warning and control plans.

The images show that the plane, which is prepared for the launch of the catapults, has made departure, arrested recovers and is preparing to fly in formation. The Chinese carrier points to an unprecedented leap for aviation.

The carrier’s deck is also home to the Z-9 helicopter, a variant produced by the Bachelor of the Eurocopter AS365 Dauphin, which performs aircraft protection roles during launch and recovery. The presence of the J-15D electronic war variant besides the trio indicates full operational complexity.

Fujian has been involved in SEA attempts since May 2024, and official photographs in August pointed to fixed -wing operations, but attempts and ups and downs are not confirmed. The publication of the video, which shows all three aircraft in active experiments, represents an important milestone for the people of the Independence Army navy.

The J-15T is an optimized derivative of J-15’s cattimized. Soviet Sukhoi Su-33 is the Chinese adaptation. Unlike previous stobar carriers, T-model is designed to be released from electromagnetic catapults and allow higher operational weights and more efficient distribution.

Adapted from land-based FC-31, the J-35 is the first hidden carrier fighter built for the Mancinık launch of China from the beginning. The first output of Fujian confirmed his ability to use China’s secret and traditional warrior jets in the Mancinık -backed departure at the same time in the arrested rescue (Catobar) operations.

The KJ-600, China’s early warning platform in the air, can be compared to the US Navy’s E-2 Hawkeye, and made its first operational appearance. Three examples were seen on the deck and emphasized the role of command, control and situational awareness at sea.

Fujian’s electromagnetic catapults represent a technical leap. The test started in 2023 when the ship was still in construction.

Unlike the US Navy, which has dominated the steam manciniks for decades for decades, the Beijing has successfully implemented the electromagnetic aircraft launching system (EMALS) and provided definite launch for planes ranging from heavy KJ-600 to hidden J-35 hunters. The J-35 is the first hidden jet released from an EMALS-equipped carrier.

Observer says Fujian will run non -developed platforms in the future. EMALS flexibility will support unmanned and unmanned war aircraft and expand the operational envelope of the People’s Liberation Army Navy beyond traditional fixed wing aviation.

The Fujian project shows the wider marine modernization of China. The navy reportedly developed a second Catobar carrier with advanced surface fighters and submarines, as well as a second Catobar carrier with nuclear energy type 004.

The expanding carrier fleet is compatible with Beijing’s strategic ambitions from potential intervention near Taiwan to the blue water operations in the Pacific.

In addition to being a carrier, Fujian is a symbol of technological success and naval power projection for China. By the end of the year, the new carrier of the People’s Liberation Army Navy and the advanced air wing are preparing to redefine regional sea dynamics.
