new J-10B and J-10S fighters leaving produce line

 

[帅的一匹]

How many J10B CAC could produce per year?

China is loaded but she don't give money to others for free.

At least we can sell J10B to PAF at production cost for strategic endorsement.

I have followed Pakistan and Chinese related defence development for more than 15 years now. I can vividly remember how not too long ago people used to say that China cant design a modern aircraft and projects like J-10 and JF-17 were called hoax and paper projects. Then it all became a reality and people shifted to FBW flight control system, then it became a reality with iron bird. Then they shifted to Modern radars, then they became a reality. Then they said China cant produce MRAAMs and SD-10/PL-12 is just a hoax, then it was proved to be true. So I know for sure that in a couple of years modern Chinese jet engines will be a reality so much so that many of us will forget that it was ever a problem.

Bhi, who can image China could produce decent fighter like J10B 10 years ago? The truth is we get it done far beyond our enemies' imagination. J10b opens a new era for PLAAF, we gonna have a more brilliant future.

I just baidu J10A and J10B, they tare weight of J10B is nearly 1 ton reduction compared with J10A( credit to DSI intake and compsite material used). That means the TRW of J10B is far better than J10A when it comes to dog fight.

J10A tare weight: 9750KG
J10B tare weight: 8800KG

J10B will able to cruise at super-sonic if WS15 engine mounted on it.

The Saving 1 ton payload could be used to add CFT to increase J10B'S range.

Wait some 5 more years, we could solve Dioayu Island problem with Japan. In front of J20 and J10B/C, F15J is sitting ducks.

Where is IFR in Production version of J-10B?

IN FORNT of the wind shied

Who told you U.A.E AF is replacing them with Rafale, it is a contender not confirmed selected by air force.

Stick to J-10 Thread Topic.

UAE tender for replacing Mirages is almost dead.

Warming of relations between Iran and West has its first casualty.

Any idea what they might be？J-11D？“J-18”？J-15E（E for electronic warfare）？

Nice find, can any Chinese member summarize what is shown from 14:00 - 16:00?
I believe they are talking about the AESA radar and range compared to other fighters!

Out of memory, I never saw CFTs on FC-20 and its technical drawings before. May be they have added now or perhaps it is work of some fan-boy. Other than these drawings, we do not have a confirmation if FC-20s exist or if they are coming towards Pakistan. Its good to see such images but I would place them in the genre of Fantasy unless confirmed.

An observation and a question: FC-20 doesn't seem to have IRST or if they do, they are on the lateral side of the cone. If they are placed like that, does that mean there would be two IRSTs instead of one? OR if there is one, it will only be able to see straight and left and right-side will remain blinded?
