This is big and I am inclined to believe it. Global Times should be closer to the provenance of the information than other media ex China.

Don't know how reliable is this news sound fantastic according to Huanqiu
....


Honestly this report sound too good to be true - at least I've never heard of such a project before - and even more there are some strange things (underlined + bold) that make me skeptical, since it is simply wrong. :(

....
The Xian JH-7 was China's first aircraft capable of mid-air refueling. Its advanced JH-7A variant has seen service with three navy battalions and three air force battalions.


Do You have a link for the original source ?

I am going to bring it right up to the front of my build queue and build it next. Can't wait. I had an older JH-7 that I was going to try and modify, but now I will just sell that older kit on eBay and build this one. Looks very nice!

These are great aircraft and I have quite a few pictures of them on

BTW, Deino...do you recognize the markings on this aircraft? I had not seen these PRC markings before...clearly low visibility, bt I had not seen them before.

It looks like a PS or CG. The tail logo looks complicated and more like someone's signature.

I do not believe the picture of the aircraft is a PS. (NOTE (Later 2014-1208): But I was WRONG! No-Name and Deino verified it completely!)

Deino? Your thoughts?

It is ... even if nearly unbelievable, it is a indeed a CG made by "Songbird" (at least I think so) based on that image posted by no-name !
