The Shenyang J-15 is a carrier-based fighter aircraft developped by the Shenyang Aircraft Corporation and the 601 Institute for the PLAN's (Chinese Navy) aircraft carrier. While the J-15 is based on Russian-designed Sukhoi Su-33, it is reported to share a large portions of electronics and avionics with the J-11.

Currently, China operates one aircraft carrier, the Liaoning, which was refitted based on an unfinished Russian-made carrier and delivered to the PLAN on Sept. 25, 2012. The carrier's original design allows it to carry about 24 fixed-wing aircraft like the J-15.
