Just again a question; since there have been reports about altogether three crashes until now. I also had a similar discussion at the ACIG-forum, where one member said:

My source indicates 107,110 and 117 have been lost.

... and when I asked for sources, he posted this:

Not sure whether you have access to this site. If not, let me know I can post screenshot. Some one was asking for the serial numbers of the three lost J-15s.

I also posted some links on ACIG of at least three J-15 losses.

不过,就在歼-15舰载机和辽宁舰融合训练取得一系列成绩时,有不和谐的传闻称,编号113的歼-15舰载机似乎发生了二等事故:战机坠毁,但飞行员平安无事。

And two in 2016 from pro regime sources

Any one of You can give an estimation on "these" reports, sources and esp. their reliability?

Thanks in advance,

First I had heard of three being lost. I will have to look back through my pics, particularly of the Bohai exercises and those pics and videos.

never seen Liaoning being so open, with new info every day. I see it as a sign that this time it may indeed venture out first island chain.

Another new video showing even more flight deck operations (Popeye will like this)! With 116 carrying a buddy refuelling probe preparing for take off as well.

Also showing the various escorts of the CSG the Liaoning is travelling with, including at least 1x 052D, 2x 052C, 2x 054A and 1x 903A

Okay. in that latest Hi-Def YouTube video of the Bphai operation/exercise,


I was able to clearly identify the following of the 13 aircraft on deck:

120
104
113
103
119
116
111
102
100

That's nine, meaning four others were used. but clearly 107, 110, 117 were not seen. THis does not mean that none of the other four were not one of those three (except 117 which I think is confirmed lost), but no way of knowing from this video in any case about 107 and 110, which are rumored to have been lost.

Confirm opacity and we know few things...
