Guys, not sure of this is the right thread but I have been unable to find info anywhere else. Question is if there is any details and images of the Lavochkin La-9/11 in PLAAF service? All images online seem to show refurbished museum aircraft and there is essentially nothing on units and history of these types in the PRC.

Great pic, thanks for posting, I had never seen a PLAAF
They have one la-11 at the Chinese Aviation Museum in Datangshang and one at Beijing Air and Space Museum. Don't know if some pictures of these planes are arround.Great pic, thanks for posting, I had never seen a PLAAF
la-11 in camouflage, does anyone know what colours?
well, this is how big organization works, budget is divided through numerous departments, and therefore you only have so much money to replace old equipmentsPLAAF is such a strange animal. On one hand you’ve got J-20s and J-16Ds with J-35 prototype already in the air, on the other you still have J-7s that are alive and well. It really runs the gamut between world class aircraft and obsolete relics.
