CV-16 Liaoning - Type 001 Aircraft Carrier News & Discussions

[Deino]

This baby marked on the photo ... looks like China YJ supersonic anti-ship missile for J-15

Indeed, but then not the YJ-12 You showed, but more likely the smaller YJ-91.

The YJ-12 is simply too large and heavy to be carried by a Flanker. Just look how much it extends in front of the already huge pylon under a H-6G. That type of missile is more than 7m long ... no chance for a Flanker esp. not off a carrier.

This is a rough estimated comparison I made some time ago.

Maybe YJ-91, at least NAVY JH-7A already equp them, shorter than YJ-12.

Exactly my thoughts .. since a +7m-long missile will simply not fit the J-15.

CV-16 may has the estimation capacity of 29 planes on deck judging from the formation shown on the 2016 long range exercise
去年年末至今年年初，辽宁舰进行了最大规模的远洋实战演练，搭载二十余架歼15舰载机足迹遍布渤海、黄海、东海、西太平洋、南海、台湾海峡。最近有照片显示辽宁号甲板一侧密集排列舰载机，或为最大起飞战备模式，这种模式下辽宁舰甲板最多或可载29架舰载机。（来源：辽宁号指挥长）

But this load out or configuration simply does not make any sense in terms op operation: Where should a landing J-15 come in ???

If You go by simply space on deck You could surely fit some more but then it would be even more stupid.

I really don't understand why fan-boys like these images so much?
