looks like it might be a SEPECAT jaguar prototype possibly a carier based idea

Talking about the Jaguar M? I think thats the one. a prototype was built, but nothing more came of it, and it was shelved in favor of the super etenard.

Definitely an early jaguar for sure. And in the background the low superstructure of a European carrier.

Well MiGLeader got it right, this was a french atempt to navalize their version of the SEPECAT Jaguar (the french version is easily recignized from the nose) and this particular plane was going deck trials onboard Aircraft carrier Foch It never went anywhere and Super Etendart was selected instead.

Remember this?

******* just by looking at the pennant number 871, you can tell its not a Qiandaohu class(886 and 887). Doesnt appear to be Nancang either.

You've been here long enough.

Well i tough the last one was a tricky...It's Similau [871], replacement ship for Royal Thailands Navy build in China. It served propaply as a prototype for the New PLAN replacement ships.

That's more up my street that one. An early concept drawing of the Sukhoi "Su-37"* which ultimately became the S-37 (/Su-47) Berkut.

*a designation which has become somewhat confused by subsequently being allocated to a Flanker variant.

I remeber seeing this plane in one of swimmers Flanker posters...It is one of the flanker family. What I dont get is why is it's cockpit old style rather than bubble.
