The J-20 is prohibited from overseas export but was also on display at CATIC’s booth in the Paris Air Show, which is taking place until Sunday.
The Paris Air Show marks the first showcase of the J-35A outside China, following the overseas debut of the carrier-based variant at the International Defence Exhibition and Conference (IDEX) in Abu Dhabi, the United Arab Emirates, in February.
