What is the missile under the L-15's wing at Zuhai ?

Looks like a new SRAAM with IR seeker and smaller wingspan which would be a hint towards internal stowage.

Are there any other pics of the L-15 there???????

i'm guessing PL-5 for the wingtip one... and some antiship missile for that big one
is TL-10A i think...
look at the seeker in the first picture
one of these

Thanks, I agree the inboard missile looks like the TL-6A - I'd never heard of it For an anti-ship missile it's very small and short ranged, like a Sea Skua equivilent. Strange, I would have thought that the C-702 already meets this potential niche in the Chinese market. Shipboard helicopters and very small patrol/FAC craft seem more fitting launch platforms.

Sinodefence should have a page on this missile.

EDIT: As someone rightly pointed out, this is a Taiwanese HF-II AShM. My bad. But since it's a pretty picture, I'll leave it up.

Just because it has Chinese on it doesn't me it belongs to the PLA....

I think TL-10A is just C-701/702 renamed or by a competiting factory trying to offer a similar product to the same market niche. There is a very thin line between TV guided antiship missiles and TV guided air to surface missiles, and I am guessing this is probably more of the latter.
