J-35 0001 Spotted: China Targets Global Markets with Possible Export Version

TL;DR Summary
A CCTV clip shows a J-35 stealth fighter with the unusual '0001' fuselage number, no PLA insignia, and the AVIC logo, fueling claims it's an export version; experts point to a slender single-wheel nose gear and a light gray unpainted coating as indicators of a land-based, pre-delivery configuration rather than a current service model. They say this could mark a mass-produced export variant for global markets, building on the FC-31 export trajectory, with the J-35A gaining prominent attention at the Singapore Airshow 2026.
