Dumb question. Are the fighters pictured land based, carrier based, or photoshopped?

Pretty sure those fighters are land based.

A total of eight jet fighters overflew the BG during the return leg of the cruise to Qingdao home port on China’s east coast.
It seems they were land based as indicated in the article.

Good morning.

Not a dumb question. I want to see flight ops. I don't care if I'm 5 miles away, I want to see just ONE carrier landing, and I don't care what type of aircraft.

5.56mm

Land based. The Liaoning is not operating an air wing yet.
