So we have to wait for J-15.

China didn’t had any aircraft carrier untill Liaoning was commissioned in 2012. Unlike USN the PLA’s naval air arms are only equipped with land-based interceptors, bombers and attackers performing maritime opreations most of the time since its founding in 1952 (we dont talk about naval helicopters here since airforce trees ingame only consists of fixed wing/variable sweep wing aircrafts). The only carrierborne fixed wing they use currently are the J-15 series which is too advanced for adding into the game right now.

Initially they uses same aircrafts with the air force (J-5, J-6, H-5 etc), adding naval camouflages for the ingame variants are more sensible option comparing to add a line of copy paste with different camos for them.
However they uses unique variants more fitting for naval opreation environments for the modern aircrafts (J-11BH etc) but I’m not sure their numbers can fit an entire naval line. Perhaps they could be added as event/premium or squadron vehicles.

J-15B & J-15D fitted AESA radar and armed advanced Air-to-Air Missile except J-15 basic/J-15S

Chengdu J-10AH from PLA Naval Air force fitted pulse doppler radar like J-10A (PLAAF) ?

I guess J-11BH (PLANAF) would be 13.0 BR

While this report is for the JH-7A, I hope to bring the C-704KD to the attention of the devs, so that it may come to the game on future Chinese aircraft as well

Honestly it would also be cool to see a very early J-10 added as well as a later version, as an earlier J-10 with weaker flight performance and weapons could help add more diversity to the Chinese air tree around 11.3

If we had a J-10 with only Pl-5’s and PL-11’s, it could easily be slotted in around there

Yeah.
J-10+PL-11 and PL-8/PL5C = 12.0
J-10+PL-11 and PL-8A/PL-5E II = 12.3

I hope J-10A will be added with 2 × PL-11 and 2 × PL-8
That would be fun it’s basically Ja-37D with better engine and better missile but lost two of em

Did J10 ever use PL5?

Not

I guess J-10A IR SRAAM 2x PL-8 (stock) & PL-8B, SARH 4x PL-11 and ARH 6x PL-12

J10A doesn’t have PL12 dual launcher

I am more inclined towards is has, J10A can already use PL12
