EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the unique Shenyang JJ-5 NX69PP / 2269, a melange of the J-5 and JJ-2 fighter and trainer aircraft. Circa 2000, this plane was part of the People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) 1327 squadron, based in Shenyang, China. The J-5, also known as the Chinese MiG-19, is a single-engine, all-weather, jet fighter interceptor, while the JJ-2, or Chinese MiG-17UTI, is a two-seat, single-engine, advanced jet trainer derived from the MiG-17. This JJ-5 NX69PP / 2269 is a rare example of a modified J-5 fighter, which was converted into a trainer by combining elements of both the J-5 and JJ-2 designs. The aircraft's distinctive appearance, with the JJ-2's second cockpit added to the J-5's fuselage, is a testament to the ingenuity and adaptability of Chinese aviation engineering. This photograph, from The Tony Lovelock Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the rich history of Chinese military aviation and the innovative ways in which older aircraft are repurposed for new roles.
