It's easy to become de-sensitised over time, but photos like this really bring home the classical elegance of the Flanker design.

Another magazine scan of a J-15T landing.

he tail hook is not extended.

Good catch. I didn’t notice it.

That is a regular "Touch-and-go landing"

Is that a YJ-83 training round? I don't know what the yellow bands mean.

The flanker remains iconic and stays winning. The sterility and frigidity of any competing F15s simply cannot compare to the elegance and pure sex appeal that Sukhoi and Shenyang designs offer.

Random is a housing for radar, so probably a different radar from those of J15/J15T. @Tam any comment?
