I wonder if they've changed the numbering system to the same as CAC, i.e. numbers run sequentially across batches that than each batch starting at 1? Otherwise we're looking at 31 in batch 02 alone. Not impossible, but how many were in Batch 01?

- Thread starter Jeff Head
- Start date
Could they be switching the numbering system for CATOBAR-capable J-15s? The J-15D is said to be only STOBAR-capable (namely the single front landing gear door).
And even more important - as expected - this J-15T is already a Batch 02 aircraft!! And even more so no. 31 within batch 02!
Some say it's a sat nav antenna.
Also what's the angular piece beside it?

I'm surprised that a CATOBAR variant of the J-15D has not yet been built (or revealed), given its importance.

the place seems not so good for a sat antenna.
the angular piece is across all flankers, russian or Chinese. It’s for diverting the hot air from the nose from affect the irst. Su35 and Su57 don’t have it. Because there nose are lower.
