Military aircraft salute Party's centenary

The plane was officially declassified in November 2016 when it staged a brief flight performance at the 11th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition. It was commissioned to the PLA Air Force later that year, becoming the third stealth fighter jet in the world to enter service following the US' F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II.

Several elite units of the PLA Air Force have commissioned the aircraft.

The last to appear in the air performance were 10 JL-8 trainer planes, which also flew in spearhead form and made the world's longest colored vapor trail.
