Changes can still be made as the cost is still bearable. Only not bearable when assembly plant started and lots of parts manufactured would go to waste. What do you personally think on the FC31? Should it stay as F35 competitor having speed of mach 1.8 with center internal bay only carrying 4...

Sounds logical, hybrid US + Russian + later own ideas technology on WS10. F15 + Su27 engine tech

Some rumors on WS10A is replica with modifications & improvement made from studies taken from reverse engineering done on US jet engine given to China during the 80's alliance with US.

JF17 is small fighter already in production stage. FC31 is still in prototype, it's Shenyang precious project now for its honor as own original made rather than replica fighter. Changes could still be made as long as it has yet to enter mass production. You may take Boeing X32 project for...

J31 project will go on as it's the only new product from Shenyang team and its engine slots could be enlarged for WS10 engines in case WS19 gone bad as per military analysis. It is like economic version of J20 that could be built in large numbers and consumes less fuel to fly. Guess fuel...

Uh, deino already answered, early batch fitted with russian engines then the rest powered by WS10 and kept improving from time to time. Before J11D, they fitted AESA and newer version WS10 engines for testing and evaluation.

WS19 for fuel economy J31. Ws10 for j35? J31 for PLAAF medium size stealth fighter. J35 for navy large fighter equivalent to F14 meant for fleet defense and high speed interceptor. J31 navalized version for PLAN for less payload interdiction mission direct challenger to F35.

Do you think they'll make the J35 as big as F22 powered by WS10B/C engines?

Yes, the new bomber plan will involve maneuverability, stealth and speed with ability to perform air to air combat for self defense taking out enemy fighters. Large bomber that is maneuverable now is the B1 believed to be capable of pulling up to 5G when others could only do 3G.

The most I referred to was original J11B I read from old articles and books I got more than 10 years ago when J11B first started. WS10A was introduced at that time. Improved version WS10 was fitted over time. T90 is just redesigned T72 that has too much weakness relying much on improved armor...

First J11B gets improved pulse doppler radar and Russian engines. Development of WS10A replica copy of Russian engines start with production model J11B.

I agree with you as I see most J11B fitted with Russian engines from the start and present due to WS10 was not perfected and not ready until later. Fans love to see WS10 in J11B as standard engine but only to replace the really worn out Russian AL31F or for testing purpose. Reason being the new...

Long range bomber is vulnerable especially not having stealth and speed could be easily taken out by enemy fighters. Best alternative would be large stealth fighter bomber that has long range, AESA frontal & rearward facing radar for attacking rear targets since it can't dogfight. Soviet Union...

J11B only later being upgraded with WS10 engines in batches. J11D earlier version without TVC is equivalent to Su27SM3. The newer one has better radar than Su35 Irbis-E but the Su35 still having more powerful thrusts.

J11B can could carry PL15 even without AESA as the long range missile guidance system could be assisted by AWACS. Deino is actually right, the J11B is using China made improved version of pulse doppler radar and the engines are still Su27 engines. However there are rumored plans of upgrade and...

Both of you failed to tell me how to operate the MFD for searching and tracking air/ground targets in J10C, J20, J11D with your so called search engine & websites facts. What else you want to say about evidence? I would rather believe words from related military personnel that whatever news on...

Why did you reply when you don't have answer to my questions? China always have separate divisions for foreign engineers. Everything is getting commercialized, engineers work for money mostly, no issue. You want to say there's no foreign engineers in China reverse engineer department at all...

What a bunch load of crap you posted. Yet you didn't answer at least 1 of my question on how to operate a simple avionic of new generation PLAAF fighter since you said all the facts can be found only on website. As for the engineers hired by China, I read them from news on magazines, online...

If you're so smart and to you, any content listed on websites only considered facts, care to explain how to operate J10C, J20, J16, J11D radar to scan for target and track detected target? How do you switch air to air or air to ground mode? Do they have optronic pod and if yes, do they come with...

Only idiots would call google and website links as source. A news posted on printed magazines and books with renowned publisher is more genuine as they have rules to follow. However, the best source is from the manufacturer and military involved. None of these have links at all. So based on your...
