Actually both older or already posted, but at least on this ASW-image You can finally see the serial clearly.

So it's 85129 ... but what does the second number/digit indicate ?? A '5' means either a new regiment or at least detachment within the 9. Naval Aviation Division ... but where based and what number ?

It may be within PRC capability to design the relevant chips, but the question is did they design it, or just manufacture them with existing foreign designs? I'm not trying to gen up an argument, I just want clarification on what "fully domestic" means. It's a small point, but an important one.

Public information on the inner working of data link is not available But information on similar system in civilian life, is available. The answer is definitely yes Here is article via broadsword from CDF

Chinese smartphone maker ZTE Corp. is working on a secure smartphone for government agencies using an operating system developed in-house, and a processor chip from a Chinese supplier, a spokesman said. The country’s largest chip-design company, Spreadtrum Communications Inc., separately said it would begin mass producing a set of chips that run a Chinese operating system by year-end.

Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. has joined with China’s Ministry of Public Security to develop a mobile operating system for police officers that it bills as more secure.

All the efforts target a niche group of government agencies and state-owned enterprises and are unlikely to appeal to the average consumer. ZTE’s secure phone, for example, will come without camera, GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless connections to minimise security risks.

The trend is unlikely to have much impact on the market share in China of U.S. mobile components and software. Analyst James Yan of market-research firm IDC estimates secure phones might make up 3% of China’s smartphone sales next year, or about two million units. But if more made-in-China operating systems and processors make their way into consumer handsets, that could potentially pose a challenge for Google’s Android as well as for Qualcomm.

Qualcomm, whose processors accounted for 52% of the smartphone market last year, according to Strategy Analytics, declined to comment. Alphabet Inc.’s Google, whose Android system ran 82.8% of the world’s smartphones in the second quarter of this year, according to IDC, didn’t immediately have a comment.

Other U.S. tech companies are already feeling a chill in China. U.S. networking- and computing-gear makers such as International Business Machines Corp. and Cisco Systems Inc. have recorded sales declines, as government agencies and state-owned enterprises buy more from domestic counterparts such as Chinese server maker Inspur Group Co. and telecommunications-gear supplier Huawei Technologies Co.

If Chinese processors and OS'es take root then every incumbent would be threatened, not just the market leaders cited.

All existing mobile OS already use a Lunix base, and as to OS that is almost open source for Android meaning there is no cost for use which is why its so popular. Of course we are mostly talking about software and I quote
Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. has joined with China’s Ministry of Public Security
so they are looking to write secure software for PRC government use. This would be a OS available only to the government of china not for export as export would offer access and break down the strength of security.

Finally we see a group of Y-9s in service.
