J-10B equip with AESA radar?

Those data aren't confirmed to be 100% accurate and they are leaving out a huge array of radars.

that data is collected from multiple places by only 1 person.. i.e me.


i wanted to show comparison n the t/r module numbers
 
don't see gap for steering mechanism and the plate looks pretty thick. definitely not PESA.
given china have very strong semiconductor industry don't see the point of making PESA.
 
The "line" in the middle seems to indicate that the radar is PESA. Very disappointing. I personally believe that this is only a temporary measure since the AL-31 engines used on the J-10b aren't powerful enough to power an AESA radar.

I only take back half of my slap since the radar in question is definitely an electronically scanned radar. First of its type to be used on a Chinese fighter.
 
Keep in mind that I did not say that there is no fighter based AESA radar in China. We may have to wait till a more powerful engine is developed before they are installed on the J-10B jet.
