Besides that these hotos were posted today over at the CDF showing a Q-5D prototype armed with the JJ/TL-10A ASM.

But is this photo real !!??? ... both missiles in the front fiew look very much like "mirrored" and isn't this missile larger than shown on the Q-5 ?

Last photo where it shows a top shot,.

Is it my eyes or they changed the wings a bit.
seems like a bigger flaps and bigger area over all.

Since the size of PLAAF’s Q-5 fleet is generally underestimated, this seems to be a good place to set the record straight, as I see it:
