With These Aircraft, The Chinese Military Proves That It Isn't Messing Around

The Zhuhai Airshow showcased China's military advancements, notably the J-15T, a catapult-capable variant of the J-15 fighter, emphasizing China’s growing aviation capabilities.

The J-15T is described as a new variant of the J-15 'Flying Shark,' being a significant improvement with better weaponry and landing gear, marking a key military development.

With over 450 J-15 fighters in service, China’s military spending is clearly directed towards enhancing its defense capabilities, thereby demonstrating an aggressive stance in regional power projection.

In light of rising tensions with the U.S., showcasing these advancements at the Airshow serves as a reminder of the military capability build-up and the competitive edge that China is pursuing.
