P.S. Looks like Liaoning's deck has been re-recoated.

I take it this photo was taken prior to the 3rd sea trial of their 2nd carrier. Are they modifying the forward part of the Liaoning's island to include another bridge or build a more sturdy balcony?

Pardon, but there were only two trails so far.

The difference between the wingtips of the J-15 models should be noted.

J-16D version of the J-15?

The difference between the wingtips of the J-15 models should be noted.

I'm assuming that this is mostly due to artistic license, but shouldn't the J-15D be a tandem-seater?

Or is this supposed to represent the upcoming J-15B?

 

[Intrepid]

Whether one-seater or two-seater should be without significance for the deck handling. The large containers on the wing tips represent the more difficult to maneuver variant.
