A few weeks ago we got info, the carrier mock-up facility in Wuhan would be modified (most likely in anticipation for the 004 aircraft carrier) ... the latest images reveal now, the island superstructure has been completely dismantled. 😮

Allegedly an image showing the PLANS-18 „Fujian“ returning home from her 4th sea trial.

Looks as if the KJ-600 mock-up is visible in front of the island and I cannot wait to see the deck if there are tire-marks.

Unfortunately it's fake ... I found it some time ago at @地产画匠's page on Weibo (in May) ... but still a nice concept even if the MAD-sting won't work that way)
 
What’s the aircraft being discussed in the recent 14sep SCMP article?

New generation aircraft
 
003 returned to the harbour.
We will wait for the latest satellite imagery to check the condition of the deck.
