By the way, China has already unveiled at one of their airshows the ground based Anti-stealth radar which interestingley resembles the Czech Vara radar. China tried to acquire the Vera but US put tremendous pressure on Czechs to not oblige . Pakistan was in possession of Vera when it leased one...
This article is from Strategy Page dated 2004 and it talks about China's anti-stealth capabilities. It clearly shows that China has been working on this for at least 7 years. So rumor/news from Japanese press seems to hold water. I can provide several links on this subject:
Subject: China's...
The news/rumors about this type of radar is not new. They have been appearing consistently in Chinese pressfor for the last two years. last i saw was a news item from Chinese press that this radar was being tested on a Chinese UAV. This time, this rumor was eyectaching because it mentioned for...
than Bhai! what is your reason for being skeptical. your earlier post is contradisctory. If China has delivered on almost every rumor, why will you be skeptical.
I am skeptical because of the source of this rumor-the Japanese.
News is from Japanese sources who are not at great terms with Chinese. Let us wait and see if there is a confirmation from other sources.
Also, even if the news is confirmed, will Pakistan have access to this technology. I will hope for the best.
We are rightly excited about the the presence of an AESA radar on J-10b. But reports are coming out of Japan that China has developed an anti-stealth stealth radar and it is being tested on J-10B. No further details are available but if this news is correct and Chinese are successful , it will...
I really do not care what they think. Most of them if not all who have seen a jet aiorcraft in picture or videos but with the advent of internet, they have become more knowlwdgable about how to fly an aircraft or flying and combat techniques. You really do not have to even touch an aircraft and...
There are rumors even in China that Pakistan has been involved in the J-10B development. I have already mentioned a large number of Pakistanis who are now in Chengdu involved in many more projects that Pakistan is rumored to be involved.
Some may argue that news of Pakistani participation in various Chinese projects only come from Pakistani fan boys. But such rumors have been mentioned even in the Chinese press. So it is not just Pakistan specific.
There is a vary large number of PAF and Pakistani scientists staioned in...

There are many complexities in ensuring that you only shoot your enemy and not your friendlies. Various tactics, procedures supported by electronics are usually employed to ensure it. You need to identify what you are pitched against to change your tactics. there are times when you need to...
This is a humor thread with intelligent humorous ideas.
Laiq Saheb, If you climb up and then make a 90 degree turn, you are then parallel to the ground. Sorry that does not work in actuality
There are ways to evade a missile which is locked on you. High "G" or crank turns is one maneuver that can be employed. This will cause the enemy missile to fly further and it may bleed out. You can also employ "F" pole maneuver. A good TVC engine will enhance maneuverability of your aircraft...
Khan Saheb, You are one of my most favorite posters here on this forum. I may not have any qualm with the political segment but last lines do not make any sense.
I may plead your pardon but must say that though the success rate of a BVR missiles are excellent, they are not 100%. It is a misconception that just firing BVR is enough to shoot down the target bogey.
How successful a BVR will be depends on the distance between the two aircrafts and how...
What about WS-10A variant. China was reported to have started mass production after all the tests were carried out. News has been that it will be installed on J-11 and then F-10. This engine was said to have tvc feature.
Can you say with certainity as to which variant of WS-10 engine J10B has?
