Shenyang J-11, J-16, J-15, History, Performance & Discussion

What would be the difference in land vs sea operations in terms of a jammers role?

Would they not have the same role either way?

I’m not that well versed in EW stuff

Thats a render (and a J-15D).

I mean that the 2 jammers could made to different requirements (in performance and durability) and it’s beneficial for the smaller naval fighter fleet to be able to use the much larger inventory of the air force

CATOBAR landing gear would suggest a DT but image is too low res I can’t really tell if it’s a render or not

You can already tell by the propotions and J-16D wing tip Jammers, that this is not a real image.

The J-15DT would have the typical J-15D wing tip Jammers, CATOBAR gear and all white / light gray radar cone and shark tails.

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.
