That's not CGI, that's a model. CGI stands for 'computer generated imagery'. It's also not a J-15 because J-15s have canards. It's probably a J-16 but it could also be a J-11 variant. The BVRAAMs are PL-15s with trapezoidal fins as opposed to the triangular fins of PL-12s.

What make you think it is not CGI . If it were a model there will be a stand But I don't see any stand there. I say "potential" I don't say it is there right now

Institutional exhibition in Beijing, where we see the Full-configuration Air-Air of the J-15 on-board fighter jet with 6 x PL-12 and 6 x PL-10
It is CGI nevertheless it show the potential

Thats a model and it is a J-16 (no canard not tail-hook). But for the J-16, I expect a PL-10 + PL-15 combo

A rather strange loadout (IMO) of 6 PL-10 + 6 PL-15. I would have thought it would be more like 4 PL-10 + 8 PL-15 or even 2 PL-10 + 10 PL-15.
In general the load even for Russians Flanker is 4 - 8 AAMs in practice 8 is the maximum.
