3 possiblities:

1) Different planes may have different take off angle.
2) J-10 may need shorter take off distance (a result of having a canard) while Su-27 may need a longer one
3) to me it looks like Su-27 is landing while J-10 is taking off.

Regarding crude pixel haze around the J-10, I don’t know cause never use photoshop. Some one may have an explanation.

or..

4) It’s PS job. THe J10 is copy/pasted from different picture. If you look the J10, there is a brighter just about J-10 shape spot in the picture which is made before the J10 is pasted over. then the ‘shopper’ has crudely cutted the J-10 out of its orginal picture, not by following the borderlines of the actual plane but took it more wider area…hence the pixel haze, a part of the orginal pictures back ground.

So as no-one can really outclude the possipility of PS, just make assumptions of how some weird conditions would explain the weirdeness of the pic, this propaply falls to the believe/not-to-believe category of issues.

Don’t be so sure that its is PSed. The flanker in the background is out of focus because of the heated jetwash from the engine of the J10 and it also a bit further out. It would look more like a PS job if both were perfectly in focus. Besides, that pic has the Xinhua news agency watermark, meaning that those pics came straight from the Chinese government and military. If they wanted a posy picture that has both the J10 and J11 in some dramatic pose to woo the masses, then they got it. Zero need to PS.

so how do you explain the different angle and the crude pixel haze around the J-10 if its only ‘high lighted’??

If You are interested, I can post here pictures of proposed launchers and turrets as well.

I am:)

I’ve never come agross a single reasonable pictute of this missile arragment proposal and I once even heard someone saying that there were never any existing russian models nor drawings of that design…

anyway, here’s a Seaslug conversion proposal pf Majestetic class carriers!!

yeah, but fifteen years too late:(
I dont think there was ever any serious plans to fit the class into anything else than command ships. All the missile conversions were made to test new stuff for the new generation of ships…

If someone kills a member of my family or a friend of mine in cold blood you can bet I want their @ss electrocuted or injected with poison or whatever else just so that they are dead and have to suffer the same fate as their victim

att least in the civiliced world, the idea of justice system pretty much bases on the fact that non in single case should the victims family&related have anything to do with the justice, verdict, sentence and punishment.

And what comes to death penalty, allowing it, you allow killing of people as a general rule and how would you then consider the frase that every law should be as biding that it would come general habbit;)

The parallels drawn between a man like this and George W. Bush or Tony Blair are equally ridiculous.

Perhaps there is logic behind that no one actually here believe….well perhaps you do…but anyway, belive that Bush nor Blair are naively innocent and knew or know nothing about the horrors that war and occupation brings along. Political leadership brings certain sort responsipility and people as high seats as Blair and Bush, certainly know what was comming when they decided to attack Iraq….

Chek out Morskaya kolelktsija catalog, try to find the book covering Sverldovs…there should be line draving to my memory..
anyway, it carried (to my knowlidge) a experimental naval version of the MiG desing bureus Komet (strela) or the AS-1 Kennel/SS-C-2 Salish missile…
