China flexes naval might, reveals 2 new jets and dual-aircraft carrier ops

Quick Summary:

The War Zone report highlighted that the PLAN is also developing additional carrier-based Flanker models, which would broaden the scope of its carrier air wings.

The Chinese naval exercise comes after the Indian Navy in June last year carried out a mission in the Arabian Sea that involved its two operational aircraft carriers, multiple warships, submarines and over 35 frontline planes.

Also visible on Shandong, according to the report, were two J-15D electronic warfare jets, broadly similar to the US Navy's EA-18G Growler and likely equipped with secondary strike capabilities.
