Any chance that China's new aircraft carrier will be carrying any unmanned drones along with the J-15s?
Maybe. SAC is unveiling its Combat Eagle UCAV this year.

Can it maintain enough CAS sorties to deliver enough ordnance around the clock?Destroy the air force of any African nation, no joke.
Seriously, this J-15, though necessary for Varyag for the time being, is in fact a disgrace IMO.
China should give SAC a tight time frame to chunk out sth decent or let it go bust.
Too many political deals for SAC have made'em lazy on top of being stupid. It's too bad for the aviation industry.
What SAC has come out with all these years other than some SU variants, being an int'l laughing stock?
Everything in its pipeline, J-19 or whatever, is just another Su cousin without a proper licence. Such a bunch of low IQ ar#$!
In order to prevent CAC monoplying the mkt, China should set up another Center of Excellence, in
Nanjing or Qiandao/Shangdong for example, to compete with CAC.
China's packed with high IQ , over-educated and ambitious young men. Give them SAC's
funding instead to have a go, and let SAC go SUCK civilian trucks of dog sh!t for god's sake.

At least better than Koreans, who laughably claim that they have a leading aerospace industry yet can only manage to produce 40% of F-16 copies and a low tech trainer aircraft! Being even able to copy Su-30 makes SAC 2.5 times as good as the best aerospace corporations in Korea.
Don't compare with Koreans, who are Mr. Nobody in the field, and in most fields.
Go compare with USA.
Plus, Korea doesn't have world's 2nd or 3rd largest (similar to Russia's , after the US) wind turnnel;
Korea doesn't have world's fastest supercomputer;
Korea doesn't have world's largest concentration of high IQ pool;
Korea doesn't have world's largest overseas Docs & post Docs # in Science, Maths & Engineering;
Koeans don't usually get world's top prizes in Science, Maths or Engineering competitions;
Korea doesn't have world's largest stock pile of foreign reserves;
...
With those, how hard it would be to have a decent indigenous design other than another Su copy ???!!!
Yeah I know that it's not a copy but an improved version, but still.
Gosh, if Ruskies, or Koreans, got all of above as China does, they would have probably test flied Su-300 by now!
.
There's something very wrong with this SAC thing, don't you agree ?
.
I dunno which Province is within top 5, or top 8, achievers of China's national unversity entrance exam,
but just disband SAC and reward the project to anyone of those 5. It would definitely do a much better job.
.
Well, aerospace is a systems engineering problem, which requires huge investments and time. Improving proven planes is the safest bet. You always want a safety project, and a "risky" project. CAC does risky things with revolutionary designs; SAC does safe proven things.
Better than Koreans and Jap anese who do things "proven" by their white masters.

( Fujian province? ), it would probably make CAC and its J-20 look stupid somewhere down the line.Who does China's C-919 civilian airplane project?
