That's odd. The serial number for the 1st prototype was "D1101" but the letter is missing here.

Now if the china has it's own engines, radar & avionics and other subsystems plus its own air-frame materials and structural changes such as with this nose cone, how much can Russia still claim it to be its product and stop china from selling it to an ally . . . .. let's say such as Pakistan, which is not even a market for Russian jets and does not hurt them if china sells to Pakistan as they are not even in competition.

Because the fuselage lineage is Russian.

J-11D has a J-10B's AESA 'nose' ...

 

[Akasa]

PLAAF J-11BS

 

[cnleio]

The radars aboard J-11D and J-10B were allegedly developed by the same institute: NRIET.

Yes both from xxxx institute ... it seems China plan to accept domestic AESA as standard radar for all new fighters.
Good news for PLAAF !

Slanted cone means AESA. Therefore only J-10B/C and this J-11D besides the J-20 has AESE radar. Even the J-15 and J-16 is still using mechanical slot doppler pulse radar.

Not really; different models have different configurations.

J-20/J-10B/J-11D have radars from NRIET, while J-16/J-15 use radars from 607th Institute.

It's not Su27 anymore, shall be sold to PAF if they need. it can do air refueling, which means it has more range.

Do you know when the catapult-capable jet, J-15B, will debut?

It's indeed Christmas time already ... look the IFR-probe, the TH ....

and one batch-produced J-16

and one batch-produced J-16

You men the one standing behind ??

Interesting, the wing-tip pylons suggest indeed this to be a J-16, however the light-grey colour hints this to be for the PLANAF ... so besides the 3. Division, a second operational unit ??
