IMO not even a J-15 ... it is claerly a twin-seater, I see no canards and the MLG does not look like a carrier-gear. I would say it's a simple standard J-16

No 90 and a new ECM-pod spotted

Interesting. Everything is green now. No more yellow plane?

Seems like a new primer for naval planes. We saw it on the J-35 and KJ-600 too.

The J-20AS still used the traditional yellow primer.

And eventually the naval JL-10 too!

I think so. Two new variants are still needed to fill some capability gaps. I'm guessing J-15 will not be focused on air superiority for as its future role.

1. Strike variant - Naval version of J-16 for air-to-surface missions with precision guided munitions
2. EW variant - similar to J-16D
