China Puts New J‑35A Model Front and Centre at Singapore Airshow, Selling a System Not Just Fighters

At the Singapore Airshow, China’s AVIC showcased 26 advanced aircraft types with the J‑35A stealth fighter model centre stage, presenting a system‑level approach that mixes new manned fighters, export models and a multi‑layered family of UAVs. The exhibition was aimed at converting recent technological advances into export contracts and broader influence by offering turnkey, tiered packages that combine combat and emergency‑response capabilities.
