Fighter jets and attack drones took centre stage with the air force debuting some of its most advanced weapons, including the J-35A medium-sized stealth fighter, the HQ-19 surface-to-air missile weapon system and a new attack reconnaissance unmanned aerial vehicle at the airshow.

The jet, which uses airstrips to take off and land, is a variant of the J-35, a stealthy aircraft China is developing for use on aircraft carriers. Experts noted that with the official commissioning of the J-35A into the PLA Air Force, China becomes the world's second country to operate two types of stealth fighter jets. A group of J20s also performed a display flight on Tuesday morning, in a diamond formation across the sky. Experts said that the combination of the two models greatly enhances the PLA Air Force's ability to conduct offensive operations in high-threat and contested environments. The Air Force will bring 36 types of equipment for aerial flight demonstrations and ground static displays to showcase the development of its equipment in a comprehensive and close-up manner, it announced on Tuesday at a press conference.
