I would actually place the J-10A's performance on par with the F-16 Block 40 and the J-10B/C with the Block 60.

What really matters is for the J-10s to dump those unreliable Russian AL-31FN engines. If I’m correct, most J-10 crashes were due to mid-flight engine failures courtesy of the AL-31. They really need Taihang ...

Easier said than done when the WS-10 is still immature compared to the AL-31.

Any info on how recent they are?
I'm more than surprised that we completely lost the track on the current highest c/n built at CAC ... the last bird I remember was 2-54 from January 2017 ! So by now more than 9 months without any recent info.

The photographer in fyjs, 中南海保镖, always luck around the manufacture of Chengdu aircraft. He said this image was shot last year.

Thanks ... means already the final Batch 02 aircraft at the end of 2016. So if they did not stop production they must be already producing Batch 03.
