another J-16, out of factory for a test flight...unit # 35?

That is from the second batch?

A new image of the J-11D + a J-16 ... most likely also from September during high altitude testing.

Impressive ... H-6K from the 10. Bomber Division and J-11A from the 2. Fighter Division.

It is now absolutely 100% certain that the J-16 is now in production and that there are atleast 35 units produced. What kind of a radar does these production planes use ? Wasn't there a issue with the radar earlier and has that been resolved ?

Even if I really don't get it: unguided rocket pods under a Flanker !!???

Anyway, I've never seen these practice bomb dispensers under the outer under-wing stations.

And we hope someday to see official and unvarnished reports on the WS-10x performance, reliability, maintenance, and safety records. Good and bad.
