Not enough, basing on the lower than usual serviceability rates of flankers.Yes, production is halted even if there are rumors from time to time concerning a new batch 3.
Otherwise 24 J-15s were built in two batches with a few (some say between 2-4) lost.
If they are enough for two carrier? IMO not ... but I don't know.
Maybe waiting for J-15B/D/...So what is China waiting for ?
J-15D has appeared sometimes but Never heard of a B, any timeline bro ?Maybe waiting for J-15B/D/...

Thanks, didn’t knew that J-15s lacked an AESA until todayThe J-15B is said to be either a MLU - some sort of J-11BG for the J-15 - fitted with an AESA radar and other goodies or even the catapult capable version, which should as an interim be used from these two STOBAR carriers as well.
J-15 take off from CV-17 domestic build carrier.
how many J-15s on the new carrier?
Wiki says 32 and so that would be a good number.
Wiki is unrealiable and simply mixes the overall capacity to carry vs. available ones: So far only 24 J-15s were built but some were lost, so the number is less than 24 for two carriers; at least for the moment.
sir why colour is green? is it because of composite material?Long expected and finally confirmed by officially by AVIC/SAC new J-15s (Batch 03) are being produced. In contrast to previous batches they have a green primer. The text says: "resuming production, full steam ahead...", confirming previous rumors that a new production line is operating for some time.
