Few years back who could believe that China will have a functioning CBG in very short years amazing. I still remember all the insult. One guys said China is like some one all dressed up with no where to go . He is banned since

Look like like they start training continuous operation launching, recovering, transferred and launching against. As well as coordination with AWAC and other support aircraft

There is nothing new, but some information provided today on the aircraft carrier are still interesting.

it is the stupid journalist spin In the original interview there is nothing that doubt the air wing prowess.The pilot just said you need luck, steel nerve etc which can apllied to any carrier landing. Because no matter how good you are or your equipment there is always element of luck. Carrier landing is dangerous bussiness Imagine barelling at 400km /hr and make complete stop at post stamp size air field

Here is the video

Question is , could we miss the emergence of a J15B when we have not missed anything before ?

How would you tell the difference between them when the two variants likely look exactly the same?

GREAT image. Showing ten J-15s on the after end of the flight deck alone.

There could easily be 14-16 J-15s on deck with this type pf spotting. I'd like to see the entire carrier at this point.
