China has admitted that a J-15 pilot was killed back in Apr. 27 this year. Zhang Chao was carrying out simulated carrier landings when he encountered trouble with the jet’s engines. He ejected from his stricken aircraft at the last minute and later died of his injuries.

Please accept our heartfelt condolences from Pakistan.

Such accidents are very unfortunate but not entirely unprecedented. The Chinese know as well as anyone that great things cannot be built without sacrifices and the Chinese J-16 and Turbofan programs are indeed great achievements and a great success.

China has lost a brave soldier, a noble son, a smart citizen and a hard working man.

May this young hero attain eternal peace in the hereafter.

The pain, discipline, honour, sacrifice and respect that is required to be a soldier is immense.

Even though I am from a neighbouring country, I respect this soldier's spirit.
