This lethal weapon is more powerful than Rafale fighter jet, can beat F-35, S-400, BrahMos also...the weapon is...
5th Generation Fighter Jet: Conflicts between Russia-Ukraine, Israel-Hamas, Israel-Iran and Thailand-Cambodia have shaken the world and highlighted the need for good aerial defence systems and high-tech fighter jets. Most of the developed countries are using the fifth-generation fighter jets to safeguard their airspace. These fighter jets have stealth capability and are capable of dodging radar systems. It is believed that the country which has the most advanced fighter jet has the upper hand if war takes place. China has recently introduced the J-35. The aircraft is specially designed to compete with the United States' F-35. As the J-35 has tremendous stealth technology, it has become very challenging for even the most advanced radars to detect it. Even BrahMos faces difficulty in destroying it.
China's Navy To Be Strengthened
The Fujian carrier has electromagnetic aircraft launch system (EMALS) technology, which is at the level of the US USS Gerald R. Ford. This technology gives the ability to launch heavier and more upgraded fighter jets, which will greatly increase the power projection and operational flexibility of the PLAN (PLA Navy).
J-35 To Be Deployed On Chinese Aircraft Carrier
As per reports of 'India Defence News,' the J-35 was tested on the Liaoning and Shandong carriers. The fighter jet will also be deployed on the Dragon's latest and largest Fujian aircraft carrier.
Modern Weapon System
The 'Made in China' jet is equipped with modern stealth technology, the latest avionics, and WS-13E engines. The jet can reach a speed of Mach 1.8 and is capable of carrying long-range air-to-air missiles such as the PL-15 or PL-21. It can also carry air-to-surface weapons like the CJ-10.
Strategic Impact On India
According to several media reports, the Dragon wants to make six aircraft carriers operational by 2035. These carriers will have the J-35 as the main fighter jet. This development will not only challenge the US's military supremacy in the region but will also have a direct impact on India's maritime security capability.
Why Is the J-35 Fighter Jet Special
The fighter jet has a low radar cross-section comparable to the US F-35, which makes it difficult to detect on Indian radar networks. It is equipped with AESA radar and EO/IR tracking and has the ability to engage targets remotely with long-range missiles. Its capacity to function from aircraft carriers enables the PLAN to sustain a continuous presence in the Indian Ocean.

Triservice officers offer insight into Operation Sindoor on KBC
Colonel Sofiya Qureshi, Wing Commander Vyomika Singh, and Commander Prerna Deosthalee on Friday offered viewers a rare inside look at Operation Sindoor, India's counterterror mission launched in response to the Pahalgam terror attack, during a special episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati. Triservice officers offer insight into Operation Sindoor on KBC Wing Commander Singh detailed the precision strikes that crippled terrorist infrastructure. 'We attacked in the interiors of the enemy to break their backs. The hands of those who watered the cactus of terrorism were broken. Twenty-one terror camps were recognised. Nine camps were finalised, and the game was done in 25 minutes,' she said. Colonel Qureshi explained the targets. 'Bahawalpur was the headquarters of the Jaish-e-Mohammed, from where terrorists who attacked Pathankot and Pahalgam were trained; Muridke had the headquarters of the Lashkar-e-Taiba, where Ajmal Kasab and David Headley were trained. Therefore, we had to destroy those places.' Singh added that terrorist camps operated under the cover of civilians. 'We are a peace-loving nation and want to live in synergy with our neighbours. Our next-gen tech weapons were so advanced now that we made the operation possible without any civilian fatalities.' Qureshi emphasised that the mission reflected a whole-of-nation approach involving the government and armed forces. Commander Deosthalee outlined the Navy's role. 'The Navy was battle-ready. We managed the trade routes to stabilise the economy and also ensured deterrence, as a dual job. We also protected the maritime borders as there were anti-national elements that entered in the past. Being part in this mission is a matter of pride and honour.' She described naval warfare as '360 degrees of uncertainty with no room for error in the middle of the endless sea without borders,' adding, 'When we strike, we strike in a manner that the enemy would remember forever.' The officers also credited local citizens for their role in rescue efforts after the Pahalgam attack, recalling the bravery shown despite the loss of Navy officer Vinay Narwal. On the preparedness of the armed forces, Singh said they were in 'offence mode.' Qureshi revealed that Pakistan had sent 300–400 drones, both armed and unarmed. 'They sent unarmed drones to scan India's weapon and defence capability around the Line of Control and the international border. But the Army Air Defence successfully disabled their attempts,' she said. Highlighting women's participation, Qureshi noted that over 100 women are involved in Operation Sindoor, trained on par with their male counterparts. 'This enabled them to handle the operations seamlessly.' Singh added, 'A weapon or a fighter aircraft doesn't distinguish between males and females.'
