There were rumors that L-15 would be carrier-modified in order to provide a light attack aircraft to supplement the J-15s and J-10Cs. This is a GIF photo taken of a plane strikingly similar to a L-15.

Good eyes. What was the take off ramp used for? I'm not aware of the Su-25 being used as a carrier based attack plane.

The ramp is simply to simulate the real thing, Russian carrier pilots make atleast 400 simulated carrier take-offs and landings before they actually get to land on the real thing. And, yes, a modified version of the SU-25 operates off of the Kuznetsov.
