PLAAF Su-30MKK with a new camo

Oh wow, that is one ugly ass paint job.

Only the PLAAF's female pilots should be allowed to operate these.

 

[Lion]

It's the aggressor unit, right?

Thats the Barbie Flanker, for the truly fast Flanker Chicks, actually I like pink and white feathers on my black Easton X-7s, they look sharp in the quiver and I can see them in flight, my daughter recently purchased a Walther P-22 and the pink and carbon was her first choice, but her husband thought he could get her a better deal and the pink Walther was gone, she had to settle for black. Actually some take on desert camo, prolly works in the arid high plains as well?

For all the criticism the Flanker has received, its seems quite happy in the PLAAF, and the guys seem to like it as well.

glad to see plaaf flying the pink in support of breast cancer awareness!!!

Not really. It is 18 Division 53 Regiment, Changsha, in Guangzhou MRAF.

That's make it even more likely. It's really near to Vietnam and I bet they are using it to simulate VPAF attack.

If they are simulating Vietnam flankers, I sure hope the new colors does not have any hidden meaning.

Its common among airforce to simulate possible potential foes. Nothing wrong and is an open secret.

I bet FC-1 might even enter PLAAF as an aggressor unit, just like F-5II of America.

FC-1 will simulate USAF,Philippines or ROCAF F-16.
