The only giveaway I can find is it seems to be missing the little find behind the canopy.
But you’re probably right either way
I can promise you it’s a render. The “八一” insignias are not red and yellow on the J-15T/D.

Ahh ok.
Is there any images of a J-15D with the countermeasures visible? I haven’t found any pictures in my brief search
PLA is opening Shandong carrier and strike group for visitors on HKG for a week. Hopefully someone have the tickets and can share some pics of the J-15 (if allowed of course)
Edit: J-15T, one of the best flankers.

The J-15T is such a wonderful looking aircraft. I just wish it had more than 48 countermeasures for war thunder reasons ngl
Can it carry pl-15/pl-12 on its second outermost pylon or is it limited to ir like su33, su35 in pic but this is the pylon im talking about
isn’t a pic just two post above showing pl15? on that pylon.
pretty sure thats the 4/5 pylon, not sure if it’s the 6/7 pylon. Would need a pic from the front/bottom to confirm. From the side it’s hard to tell exactly which pylon is which

Haven’t seen any Chinese Flanker with BVRs on that pylons, max PL-15 would remain eight, unless they also start to add the dual pylon on their Flankers, but thats not very likely atm.
No, the picture however shows PL-12s.

Thats clearly a PL-10
oh yeah you’re right, no middle fins. are the pl-12s/pl-15s just too heavy for that pylon? ik the r77 is lighter than the pl-12, but the r-77-1 seem to be basically the same weight
yea my bad.
He is talking about the most outer underwing pylon, on this picture its also equipped with just PL-10.
ah, sorry i though he was talking abt the second most inner pylon
So, j-16 loadout for radar missiles is basically the su-35 er loadout? Kind of disappointing, the fact that a fighter thats like double the weight of j-10c while having the same radar missile loadout as it is dumb. IMO that means j-16 will be kinda doa for air to air, why fly it over j-10c? J-10c will have much superior aerodynamics and kinematics. Only positive for j-16 is air to ground load out and its cm count
