There are doubts if the first picture is real or PSed.
And like you said, the other two photos are old.
Just in case anyone missed it, my post on the last page has the proof for why the Liaoning at port photo is very old/not recent.

The ships in close formation are probably real from the last photo ops few months ago, but the 8 jets flying over are most likely PSed add-on.

Can't we ask NSA for their back-up?
Master Delfts most humorous post this year??? no doubt,,,, NASA?
This is simply an outstanding picture. It is something we have talked about, watched for, and waited for on SDF for many years, wondering when it would happen and how it would look.
The carrier, two Type 052C DDGs and three Type 054A FFGs with a Type 093 SSN in the lead. Even though the eight aircraft are not off of the carrier, they represent what will soon be reality.
Here's the picture on my Flicker CV-16 Album and the caption I put with it:
2014 picture of the Chinese Navy (PLAN) aircraft carrier strike group. The Liaoning, CV-16 is pictured, with two Type 052C guided-missile destroyers in the foreground, three Type 054A guided-missile frigates, and a Type 093 nuclear attack submarine in the lead. The eight fighters shown are land based and are not off of the carrier, but they are similar to the J-15 aircraft that will be housed on the carrier. To date no more than three or four J-15 strike aircraft have been seen on the carrier and they have been test aircraft.
Heck of a picture
