why yellow colour?

All planes have yellow primers when they come off the PLAAF production line. Grey paintworks are going to be applied once testflights are complete.

Nope. He got the pictures from the same source as me. The J-10s in question use DSI inlets so they have to be J-10Bs.

These are J-10A, look at the below pics enlarging them and you will see that they don't have the ECM on the top of the tails, as well as the nose cone is round just like J-10As, while J-10Bs have slightly different shaped nose cone, more like a F-16 and the inlets are the usual old ones, not DSI ones.

They seem to be a new batch of J-10A for CAF.

Check this below website, click on the picture and then enlarge it, you will see the difference.

so f 10b is a step in fifth generation capabilities for china.... test bed. how good can this be to PAF . and one more thing , the IRST can it detect stealth aircraft

It would be very good for PAF, would be coming with lot of potential as well as capabilities.

Yes, IRST can be useful in detecting a stealth aircraft due to the heat signature.

what is the usual range of IRST...??

what is the usual range of IRST...??

The Russian OLS-35 system has this specification:

The aerial target acquisition range (in nonafterburner mode) in the front hemisphere is at least 50 km and that in the rear hemisphere is at least 90 km. The laser rangefinder ranges aerial targets out at 20 km and ground targets out at 30 km with a precision of 5 m.

And the OLS-50M may have something like 70NM range.

IRST on J10 and JFT will give us some serious air warfare advantages.

Yeah, with reduced RCS, these IRST can be very useful as enemy plane may not be able to detect earlier, while the IRST equipped plane may detect it early or through ground radar support or AEW&C sneak close to the enemy and fire its missiles without opening up his radar.

 

[SBD-3]

IMHO, the biggest advantage of IRST is that a good IRST allows passive detection at BVR range without switching one's radar on. It helps aircraft to maintain a low profile and reduced the detection range of Hostile radar and thus giving home AC ability to make the first launch

 

[Stealth_fighter]

Isnt it true that IRST will be integrated with jf-17?
