That's got to be a take-off...no tail hook or arresting wires are visible

Touch and go, From the deck markings, it's amidships where the white landing centreline crosses the yellow takeoff guideline.

I doubt it could get off the deck in its own lenght from rest.

It takes too much to be a pilot for a Russian navy.
Aircraft is too big, carrier is too small, a disaster is waiting to happend.
Why do they really need a carrier is another question with no answer.
