Chengdu J-10 Multirole Fighter Air Craft News & Discussions

[Dr. Strangelove]

i wonder why they called J-10 into FC-20 if they are getting J-10

fc20 is an export version of j10b for pakistan

China's J-10B fighter completes Chengdu test flights

China's J-10B fighter jet has reportedly carried out several successful tests flights at an airport in Chengdu, Sichuan province.

A J-10B prototype made its maiden flight in December 2008. The latest fighter tested in Chengdu was powered by the domestically-produced Shenyang WS-10 engine instead of the original AL-31FN, which was of Russian design.

The fighter is equipped with an electronically scanned array radar and an electronic optic targeting system (EOTS), commonly found on all fourth-generation Russian fighter aircraft such as the Su-27 and MiG-29. The jet's development has likely been aided by China's massive cyberespionage campaigns.

The modified aerodynamic structure of the fighter jet also improves its air combat ability. The new design has developed advanced synergy of combat ability for the new J-10B, unlike the US F16C/D or the French Mirage 2000-5, military analysts said.

Recently, J-10B fighters were equipped with China-made Taihang engine and took multiple stereotypes continuous flight on an airport in Chengdu, some aviation enthusiasts said the J- 10B fighters had high degree of difficulty of maneuvering flight, the aircraft’s performance is rather excellent. Before this, the J-10B fighter jets have been using Russian-made AL-31FN engine, if the engine supply problems, these fighters are easily controlled by others, Taihang engine equipped with the new J-10B flight test aircraft will complete shape, will greatly enhance our military the level of equipment, get rid of the heavy reliance on foreign air force.
J-10B fighter improved aerodynamic structure, through the installation of a new type of airborne fire control radar, a new generation of avionics equipment, and optical radar system, the installation of new electronic warfare devices, and equipped with a domestic Taihang engine, greatly improving the operational performance, its overall combat capability than US-made F-16C / D fighter aircraft and legal Mirage -2000-5.J-10B fighters with new Radar

today,j10b pt05 carried two fuel tanks for test and flew again.

the second picture is a killer.

AESA confirmed by sopc_dsp, who also works for CAC:

这架J10B装的就是带Ｈ面寄生杆的验证型AESA，全称是：
带Ｈ面寄生杆复合振子幅射元的有源低副瓣相控阵天线

由于常规的相控阵天线宽角扫描都存在不同程度特点的盲点效应，南京电子技术研究所对 带Ｈ面寄生杆复合振子幅射元阵列的辐射特性研究表明，带Ｈ面寄生杆复合振子幅射元阵列天线不仅能消除扫描盲点，而且能改善宽角扫描性能。
这架J10B装的验证型AESA是实现了宽频带、宽扫描角的基于带Ｈ面寄生杆复合振子幅射元技术的有源低副瓣相控阵天线。

"This J-10B is equipped with an AESA with H antenna array. Normal electronically scanned arrays have blind spots when performing wide angle scanning. To compensate, Nanjing institute developed this H antenna to eliminate the blind spots, as well as improve wide angle scanning capability."

Excuse the poor translation. There is alot of technical terms that I don't know how to translate, so some things may have been lost in the translation.

Also by huzhigeng, you all know who he is by now, or should:

相控阵天线宽角宽带扫描特性研究
王茂彬 南京电子技术研究所
昨天晚上特意打电话给14所的某人。。。关于网上10B的雷达的事情。。。。还和他说起王茂彬。他很惊奇。他只是笑了笑。。说王茂彬就是专门搞10B的雷达。至于是P还是A。他说你不是都知道王茂彬了。这还用问？王是他的同事。。。。。

"Phased array antenna wide-angle scan properties research: Wang Maobin, Nanjing Electronic Technology Research Institute (AKA, 14th Institute)

Called somebody from 14th Institute last night, about the debates on J-10B's radar. Also talked about Wang Maobin. He was surprised and laughed about it, said Wang Maobin is the one responsible for J-10B's radar. Whether it was P (PESA) or A (AESA), he said "you know it's Wang Maobin already, why do you still need to ask?". Wang Maobin was his colleague."

---------------------------------------------------------------

That should settle the debate now.

I have noticed wings of J-10 A and B. Did J-10b have Different wings not the delta one like on J-10 A? and The way the wings are made, a slope then a straight wing. What these wings called and what is their specialty over delta or any other wing?

My favourate J-10 picture

 

[araz]

today,j10b pt05 carried two fuel tanks for test and flew again.

Glorious pictures. However, I just wondered whether there is any prospect for a wing tip pylon, ala F16. Is it possible? or indeed on the cards. I remember reading a long time ago that PAF had sent a brief regarding J10, requesting incorporation of a wing tip pylon. Does anyone else remember?
Anyways a beautiful bird, cant wait for PAF to get their handson it.

The J10A in post no.4947 above appears to have a spine but J10B in post 4948 above has no spine !!!!Can anyone explain why ????
