China Flanker Thread II

[Quickie]

What's the story behind this video? Anything special?

That is a very interesting find there zyun. However the first thing that I thought when I saw the ramp is that it is too small and not steep enough to be a replica of a carrier ski jump, although we don't really know what we're looking at or how far away it is so I suppose we can't actually tell.

On second look it appears that it might just be the side of an oddly shaped building, possibly a hangar, they sometimes look kind of like that. Do we know where this is so we can Google Earth it.

OH, here's the video link. Not a big story, I've posted a picture about that ramp quite a while ago on CDF. This video was about a J11 prototype taking off along side the ski ramp

十万分的强烈呼唤的沈飞的爬墙党，8月底就看你们的歼15首飞照片了(ZT)
8月6日下午2时30分，中航工业副总经理耿汝光，项目办主任吕杰一行在强度所所长孙侠生、副所长兼总师强宝平、党委副书记孟凡君等有关人员的陪同下，来到该所耀州试验基地，就某型飞机首飞前全机静力试验情况进行现场检查指导。

耿副总一行首先听取了强度所所长孙侠生关于某型飞机全机静力试验情况的工作汇报，所长孙侠生、副所长兼总师强宝平详细地回答了有关问题。接着，耿副总一行在孙所长等陪同下来到试验现场，观看了某型飞机首飞前最后一项全机静力试验全过程。当试验成功后，耿副总一行向三方参试人员表示祝贺并和参试人员合影留念。

该机首飞前全机静力试验的完成将为其按期首飞提供有力保证。

someone posted this on Chinese bbs. Several people have been mentioning that J-15 is finishing its final testing needed before the first flight and it will test fly before the end of the month.

That plane has surely not used the jump...

That plane has surely not used the jump...

The jump might have some sort of spring system that catapult the plane upward.

The J-15? Is that the J-XX or the naval flanker? Seems that the planes designation changed on cnair.

J-15 may or may not be the naval flanker designation, but I'm pretty sure it's talking about the naval flanker here.
