Thanks a lot !
What's that thing in the last image ?

And by the way, what display is this? A public display of the types involved at Aviadarts at Changchun or another event?
The words on the thing say laser guided training round.

Interesting, but why then does this "thing" have no seeker ?

To be precise, the label said laser guided captive flight training bomb. No idea how it suppose to work or serve for training.

BEIJING, Aug. 17 (Xinhua) -- Six aircraft of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) air force arrived at an air base in Thailand Thursday for a joint training exercise with the Thai air force from Thursday to Sept. 3.

The training, the second of its kind, is expected to test their combat tactics and weaponry, and to improve their actual combat training, according to the PLA air force.

The first joint training of the two air forces took place in Thailand in November 2015.

Sending six J-10As from Yunnan.
 
That's strange ... these are still from the 44th Division 131st Regiment, which just became a Brigade and converted to J-10C now operates the J-10A. So IMO this image is only a placeholder-image?

I think we need to wait if they indeed sent J-10A or J-10C if it is from the 131st Brigade.

No point in sending J-10C unless they want to sell them.

My surprise what in meant in this regard: I was only surprised - or in fact I'm questioning - since the image of J-10As posted does not fit to the aircraft this unit currently flies. So either it was just a random image used to show they sent 6 J-10A ... but then from another unit.
Or they are in fact from the same unit, but then they will be J-10C.

:-)

Any info on from what unit (Brigade or Regiment) they are since You rarely see unit badges ? ... and this one is new to me.

 
Some new pics of J10C. :)

And with the same fancy "Fox" emblem on the intake we saw some time ago under a J-11As cockpit. Clearly only for the new flm but anyway nice ...

By the way, any latest news on the current production lot? I still have 2-54 and -59 (?) as the highest numbers from late 2016.
