Is this ACMI it is carrying ?

 

[Deino]

YES ... now after You edited Your original post, that's indeed not a missile but a KXD-P73 AMCI (Air combat maneuvering instrumentation) pod adapted for the J-11-series ... the J-10 uses a similar one called KXD-PL8.

Just FYI, the J-11As were from Guangzhou's 2nd Aviation division.

is it true?

Give it a few days, weeks and months and see.

Seriously, every few months there has been a new report of China buying Su-35s. If every single one of those instances were true, then China would have hundreds of Su-35s in service by now.

Discussions for Su-35s probably did exist and they may still be ongoing, but when such a deal is actually inked is another matter, and it probably isn't very useful for us to try and guess which report may or may not be true.
