J-10B new AESA radar

 

[Deino]

Again I need some help with a translation, but the number 1493 denotes the radar type ? (or am I wrong?) ... but isn't the Type-1493 the radar installed in the J-11B ??

It said new AESA radar of J-10B capable of locking on target of 0.05/sq meter radar reflation at range of 100-130km
Multi targets capability better than Type-1493 radar

Thanks !

With so far only two Y-20s delivered, surely not.

If You want to expand Your strategic lift capabilities - also by adding whichever second-hand Il-76 You get - You do not reassign these most valuable type to a training unit only after You just received the first two Y-20s.

Deino

Somehow, PLAAF inventory planners must have felt these 'valuable' 2ndhand assets are replaceable with the Y-20 to assign them(il-76) to training units. They could have taken into account the production speed of the Y-20s(e.g 3D-printing, etc)

Doesn't the J-10B use PESA radars?

Now you've been informed of another project that is coming to conclusion.

Some days ago I found this image stating that the 126. Brigade has been converted to the JH-7A ... can anyone confirm ?

 

[Deino]

Now you've been informed of another project that is coming to conclusion.

is this only a concept or proposal or a real project already?

I like this plane so cute.
