JF-17 'stealth' is planned - maybe from the blk3 onwards and then all 150 JFT's wld be 'stealth' - how abt them apples!
An AESA and IRST are planned for JFT. Composite material also planned. JFT already have DSI. Could be more things which we don't know yet. It wont be a 5th gen stealth but a good 4.5th gen stealth. Which serve our needs best.

J-10 of China unveiled a full set of weapons systems against a wide range of firepower

The air show in the aircraft industry once again demonstrated the full range of domestic J-10 aircraft weapons systems. J-10 fighter is a refreshing advanced fighters, J-10 fire against an array of plug-in system is confusing. Judging from the show, J-10 can mount most domestic airborne ammunition, targets from the sky, land to ocean, J-10 fully demonstrate the manner of the king.
J-10 on the fight against the most important equipment is the low-altitude navigation pod, the system that evolved from the sky. J-10 low altitude navigation pod provides for the climb/dive instruction to complete the all-weather low altitude penetration, is essential to tactical attacks on key equipment. Navigation pod with terrain following radar, main, wide field of forward-looking infrared system, the control computer, environmental controls and power pose. J-10 mounted weapons can be guided according to different requirements, before the hanging points in the fuselage mounted laser-guided pods, electronic countermeasures pod, IR/chaff bomb jamming pod, anti-ship missile pod data transmission, phase Phased array radar reconnaissance pods and so on. J-10 display only the mounted pods and laser-guided navigation pod, the pod that other types of options can be mounted by the J-10. J-10 has to reconnaissance, electronic warfare, penetration, weapons guidance and other multi-mission adaptability .
J-10 air defense missiles mainly by IR dogfight missile PL-8, medium-range semi-active radar-guided PL-11 and PL-12 active radar guided composition, but also linked to plant PL-5 series than the new Infrared fighting bombs. PL-5 is a self-developed, has also been improvements. PL-8 was introduced in the 80 -3 constrictor Israel on the basis of technology developed from the Chinese fighter is now “standard” fighting bombs, there are several development models. PL-11, formerly known as Sparrow missiles, 80 years the introduction of the technology developed from the Italian Asi Pai, the only investment in the development of a long research equipment. PL-12 is currently China’s most advanced medium-range missiles, AIM-120 with the United States very early models.
ground attack showed seven 90 mm rockets nest, firing arrows 90-1 type of non-killing bomb navigation system should be able to mount 57 mm, 130 mm rockets nest, omitted in the display . J-10 plug too many weapons, secondary weapons are only a representative selection. No controlled bomb many varieties to choose from, there are anti-explosion aviation bombs 500-4,500-3, 250 kg bombs and other low resistance, in addition, there are various types of cluster bombs caliber, anti-artillery bombs, fuel air bombs, all impedance free-fall bombs, let alone mount. Bombs are hanging in the body hanging point, the centerline of belly bombs can be linked to large-caliber weapons, the four small-diameter bombs hanging rack side. J-10 chose the lightweight 23 mm cannon, normally used for air operations, not used for combat.
J-10 precision-guided munitions are many varieties, most of the Zhuhai air show display can be used to mount precision-guided bombs. Mounted for display with LT-2, LS-6. 500 LS-6 by the caliber of low resistance retrofit kit to upgrade from a bomb, a gliding projectile package, so that a range of up to 65 km standoff launch carrier aircraft to reduce the probability of attack. LS-6 after launching from the GPS satellite navigation system or the Green Corners provide guidance, precision can reach 10 meters. The future, as the second generation of passive systems in use Beidou satellite navigation guidance mode is expected to be large-scale application. LS-6 glide bombs outside diameter than 500,250, this air show also brought a small-caliber ammunition, precision attack, a 50 kg, a 100 kg, developed ideas similar to the U.S. GBU-39. This guided bombs in addition to satellite navigation and positioning, it also adds a small seeker, may increase such as laser, infrared seeker. Flight components by the middle of the edge of the missile wing and tail cabin composition. J-10 display weapons are developed in the aircraft industry, in fact, Aerospace Science and Industry, there are many precision munitions to choose from. If technology is leading the small-diameter LS-6 of the FT-5 series of missiles.
small diameter precision-guided munitions is the development of popular varieties, based on the stealth fighter guided weapons to use and to fill existing vacancies. Because of small size, it is easy to mount in the bomb bay and unmanned stealth fighter attack aircraft, and better mobility, attack flexibility, smaller warhead and greater accuracy also reduces collateral damage. More fighters to mount small-caliber ammunition, can expand the scope of or against a continuous attack on high-value targets. Precision-guided munitions and large caliber mixed use, expanding the mission flexibility and combat types. J-10 particularly suitable for small-caliber ammunition used fighter planes, FT series to choose from a variety of small-caliber ammunition. FT-1 on the basis of a bomb in the general installation of GPS guidance device, relying on air power to control, hit accuracy of 30 meters. FT-2 modified folding wings, the maximum running distance from 18 km up to 60-90 km, to achieve standoff launch the bomb like LS-6. FT-3 to switch to edge of the wing flight components, increased laser-guided, two-balanced laser proofing mode. Integration of the integrated missile design, coordinate attacks, hit accuracy level meters. FT-6 FT-3 in the installation of lift components based on the extended range, while optimizing the navigation, guidance, control system, the standoff launch, destroying the ground or low-speed fixed and moving targets at sea. FT-5 guided bombs caliber 100, FT-3 with a similar flight components, installation in different ways, adding GPS guidance SINS, precision meter class. FT-5 panels show a family can be developed, such as increased lift components into a small glider bombs, laser or color infrared seeker to increase first-class. To be mature technology, Compass navigation satellite into use the second generation, J-10 probably made extensive use of precision-guided munitions, particularly the small-diameter precision-guided munitions.
surprising that J-10 finally shown in this air show mount anti-ship missile capability, show the development is completed J-10 Navy, serving in sight. Air show in the minicomputer contained a variety of emerging anti-ship missiles can be mounted on the J-10, hanging belly main strong point of carrying capacity and may even be mounted such as the YJ-91 supersonic anti-ship missiles such large scale. J-10 KAD-88 missile is a flagship series, the YJ-8 Airborne Model (export C801), can be used for anti-ship and ground attack. J-10 load of bombs because of the restrictions, the future is expected to use the lightweight C-704, C-705 anti-ship missiles such as the export of domestic models, in order to increase the number of mounts.

check out the targeting units on display wow just super plane 36 of these babies coming to Pakistan Airforce Brand NEW wow can't wait for 2014New Recruit
J10 looks like a pretty close copy to the F16
