Multiple types of fighter jets of the Chinese air force have successively arrived in south China's Zhuhai City for the upcoming 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition, or the Zhuhai Airshow.
They include the supersonic, multipurpose fighter J-10C, the domestically developed high-altitude long-endurance reconnaissance drones WZ-7 and WZ-10, as well as the heavy transport aircraft Y-20 and Y-9.
Two JL-10 training planes arrived at the Zhuhai Jinwan Airport on Sunday morning, one of which will be on static display and the other to perform aerial stunts at the event.
The twin-engine, twin-seat multi-role strike fighter J-16, China's self-developed medium-long range bomber H-6K , as well as other types of aircraft will also touch down at the airport later.
The airshow will take place from Nov. 12 to 17, attracting 1,022 companies from 47 countries and regions. Russia, France, the United States, Saudi Arabia and Italy will participate in the biennial aerospace trade show in groups.
As an export-oriented international event, the Zhuhai Airshow offers a rare venue to observe China's military aircraft up close, especially the newest models.

Nicaragua's co-foreign minister Valdrack Jaentschke has warned that militarism must never be allowed to rise again, as Japan's recent moves to lift its arms export ban and revise the pacifist Constitution continue to draw international concern.
This year marks the 80th anniversary of the opening of the Tokyo Trials, where Japan's Class-A war criminals from World War II were brought to justice.
In an interview with China Global Television Network (CGTN), Valdrack Jaentschke voiced his concern that today's world order is being undermined by interventionism and other challenges.
"It is necessary for us to remember that after the end of World War II, countries worked hard to build a new international order based on international law. However, regrettably, more than 80 years later, we are seeing that this once explored and attempted order is being challenged by interventionism, a confrontational mindset, and tendencies like 'might makes right.' These are precisely the conditions that gave rise to fascism and militarism in the past, which ultimately led to the tragedy of World War II," he said.
He said the international community has a responsibility to pursue a new international order -- one fundamentally grounded in peace.
"Looking back at the history more than eight decades ago and comparing it with today's reality, it is our responsibility to recognize that the world should, and must, build a new international order that is more just, fairer, rooted in international law, based on a logic of mutual benefit and shared success, and fundamentally grounded in peace," said the minister.
"Today, as we revisit the Tokyo Trials, it is meant to remind the world that such a tragedy must never be repeated -- and that we must do everything in our power to prevent it from happening again. We must stop that dark world -- born from militarism, interventionism, and fascism -- from ever returning," he said.
