Oh well...if that is so, then it took us all in.sorry guys but this photo is actually a CG done by 西葛西造舰, he has done alot of top of the class CGs of PLAN ships including 055 and future aircraft carrier. he has made a claim on weibo about this photo being his and that it was made in 2013.

So my hypothesis still has a chance!!!
None of the people who served on the IJN carriers could transmit relevant experience to the crews of current Japanese flattops. These could, no doubt did, borrow experience from USN which was relevant.Plus Japan did have carrier operational combat experience - one of the most extensive in the past during WWII (up against USN) although they all got wipe out.....

Actually I still don't think so ... if You compare to this CG below also made by him it looks much clearer, cleaner, much more perfect than the image posted yesterday shot out from a helicopter in flight. It has the same imperfections like the latest J-15-images ... but maybe I simply want it too much to be real.
Therefore ... tell him please to post this CG !
