[PEA] Shenyang J-15 Flanker-D ''Flying Shark''

Part-Efficient Aircrafts~!!

As a validation of my previously made Su-33 for Monarchii's Part Efficient Aircraft, I removed the camouflage livery to reduce some parts as low as possible.


The Shenyang J-15, also known as Flying Shark (NATO reporting name: Flanker-X2) is a Chinese all-weather, twin-engine, carrier-based 4.5 generation multirole fighter aircraft developed by the Shenyang Aircraft Corporation (SAC) and the 601 Institute, specifically for the People's Liberation Army Naval Air Force (PLANAF) to serve on People's Liberation Army Navy's (PLAN) aircraft carriers.

The T-10K-3, an unfinished prototype of the Su-33, was acquired by SAC from Ukraine in 2001 and is claimed to have been studied extensively and reverse-engineered, with development on the J-15 beginning immediately afterward. While the J-15 appears to be structurally based on the prototype of Su-33, the fighter features indigenous Chinese technologies as well as avionics from the Shenyang J-11B program. In February 2018, discussions about replacing the aircraft appeared in several Chinese media outlets including Xinhua and China's main military newspaper, discussing that it belongs to the 4th- or 4.5-generation fighters. Thus, the J-15 is viewed as an interim carrier-based fighter until a fifth-generation successor enters service, one that is based on the Shenyang J-35.

    @LunarEclipseSP I mean, is cool :3
    that being said, now I kinda wanna make the Mi-28.. someone requested it and I did kinda plan it(well, three months ago that is, when I was making the soviet rosters of helis), but I have doubts as to how efficient I can make it be, not to mention the rockets and the chin gun which is it's own proooblem(like for example, my Mi-24A has 96 parts.. aaa) Q~Q

    80 parts after I stripped away the camouflage livery, in addition I added some markings into it. Much better now?
