Could this be a side proof of China got reliable catapult technology now?:cool:
With the lack of dihedral of the horizontal stabilizer and larger radome pylon,it looks like the Yak-44E,or a version of it.Be great to see that project finally see the light of day.

-wonder what radar this thing carry.
Radom is too thin to carry a version off KJ-2000.
AN/APY-9 from Hawkeye-D?

yak-44E had 2 instead of 4 Vertical fins.

Oh god that Anhedral wing, don't tell me they really moded a Y-7.

-But the Varyag remains a STOBAR carrier, how can this thing operate from it?

1 -- I believe E-2 was said to be capable of taking off on a STOBAR carrier when northrop were showing it off for the indians. It's not impossible this Sino-E-2 can as well.
2, and more likely -- it isn't designed to operate from the Varyag? ;)

-If this is for the carrier it is a very interesting development, we already know they have purchased Russian AEW helicopters and have their own in development. It could be that this is for a future carrier fitted out as a CATOBAR type or maybe they are going to fit a waist catapult to Varyag. If not as has been suggested it could run off the ramp but I wonder if it would be very compromised performance wise in that respect.
Finally if it is for a future CATOBAR carrier maybe they plan to do touch and goes on the Varyag in the meantime.

-Let's not forget that the Sukhoi Su-25UTG, with modest TWR, manages to take off from Kuznetsov.
As for Chinese carriers - how about this one??
It's already operational......:rolleyes:
OK - so I doctored it a bit.....
It's actually in an amusement park in Shanghai....

-You had me wondering there Ken... specially the big windows!
But still an impressive structure, even if it is concrete!

-I cant help but LOL when I remember that at first when these pictures appeared on the net some chinese posters vehemently claimed it was built as a mockup for practising carrier landings and crew training!:D

new... everything. If they still try to call it an Y-7 Derivative then those Commies are shameless!
...
from what I gathered, 14th and 38th Institute is in competition again with the radar.
airplane platform is the nailed down as a single supplier from Shangxi.
AESA rotating array.

-Well,I guess if they did mod an Y-7 it'd be no worse then Russia modding an An-72 to make the An-71,which I believe was intended for naval use.

-wow, they would copy such a crappy design. Hopefully they also reverse engineer the new 8 blade props too.....they add a lot of excitement and danger to a relatively benign airframe

It was never 'intended' for naval use.
It was put forward as a possible solution for a carrier-capable AWACS, but was too heavy - which is why Yakovlev designed the Yak-44E.
The An-71 was a purely land-based design....
