Global Times: Maiden flight of China's carrier-based stealth fighter spotted, 'aircraft to rival F-35'
China's next-generation aircraft carrier-based fighter jet made its long-expected maiden flight recently, foreign media outlets reported, with unverified photos of the prototype warplane in the sky circulating on social media platforms.
If true, this would mean a tremendous step for China's aircraft carrier program, observers said.
The photos show the carrier version of the FC-31 stealth fighter flying. It is painted with a blue-green primer, and it has the same twin canted tailfins, twin engines and high-mounted cockpit of the FC-31. But it adds a catapult launch bar and a wing-fold mechanism, confirming it is intended for carrier operations, US media outlet thedrive.com reported on Friday.
