The main feed says "too much congestion, log in to proceed" but the media tab does work. Here's the full res photo. The quality isn't much better unfortunately.

Looks that air station in ETC has become the “recycling center” for Su-30MKK/Mk2s from various units around the country while those units themselves are receiving new aircraft like J-16.

Actually I‘m not so sure … with several other S-30MKK seen from the 85th AB and these images likely related to the recent and still ongoing exercise I think it is indeed an ETC base (maybe Quzhou, home of the 85th?), but if the newly seen 17th AB is also from the ETC is another question and IMO it is more likely a WTC unit.
