Similar to the difference between J-16 and J-11BS.

Forget J-15B, I want to see J-15D.

The PLAN needs a dedicated EW plane.

Don't think that J-15B can only become a CAS (Carrier Air Strike Element). They have already have a better aircraft for it, the J-35. You should also think that J-15B can replace JH-7A role in PLANAF. Just imagine if you have a JH-7A role Aircraft that can actually take off and land on any Chinese Aircraft Carriers; with the capability similar to PLAAF J-16. It can stay in any traditional JH-7A air bases, It can be placed on any Chinese Man Made Island airstrips, and it can even land and take off from Liaoning, Shandong and even Fujian (For refueling and rearming purpose). The versatility can make the Naval Air combat Missions become easier for PLAN and PLANAF in the future.
