PAF J-10C News, Updates and Discussion

[Shotgunner51]

Sir, I Thought that WS-10A & WS10B are applied for twin engine aircraft. and WS10C was thoroughly matured to Single engine aircraft operations. which requires certain different configuration and stringent parameters.

Perhaps the C variant sounds like a "progression" from B, that's not the case.

PLAAF has been very careful with the AL-31 replacement program: WS-10 baseline and A variants are used on Flankers only, and wait until its progression aka B variant became reliable enough to be used on both Flankers and J-10's. For these two jet series, B is the matured version. The C for J-20 is more like a stop gap move until WS-15 comes online in the future, it's a B modified to be compatible with J-20.

Sir, I thought J10s are flying WS10C not the WS10B

chalo jee hik aur nawi kahani shuru. sure sure remove the comment

@PanzerKiel ,

So very intriguing. What is Deino going to say about that---hehehehehehe

I managed a peek into the cockpit, sat in it for a while, checked all hardpoints, even thrust my hand into the forward air intake out of curiosity. Thats all dear. Not much info with me at the moment. And please do not ask for more. Wont be able to answer. And btw, it was in PAF colors. They just didnt let me fly it.

emm checked aaaalll the hardpoints

I'm not sure if this is already valid to say ... IMO it is a rumour yet, nothing more.

We will see

 

[Deino]

We will see

But why this confidence? At least from what I read we have indeed the fact, that GAIC merged with CAC and we have this single placard, but do we have something written or reported by the media concerning the transfer of the J-10's production? IMO it is just a speculation yet.

Good going MashaAllah. Must be a lot of fun. Starters are always tasty when served fresh. Looking forward to your post on the main course. Whenever that comes.

Nope ... in fact AFAIK only the B is flying on single engined types.

You know it already! I remain sceptical until i have proof, but the point is, in terms of credibility he is playing in a totally different league, in fact the only thing you do is "playing"!

He is one of the few here who really seem to know his stuff, he is rarely posting details but when he posts, he seems to be correct even if only after some time ... when you post, you always start with a rant, most of what you post is either irrelevant blabala, fabricated or plain wrong as long as you can provoke! As such, post whatever you want, it's a free forum but don't expect that anyone with a clue believes in your deliberate troll posts ...

That's the difference.

I wish we could skip to March.... Aussies coming to Pakistan (Insha'Allah)and 23rd March..

You missed out this Urdu transcript written on the panel just below the HUD. ....

''Mout Kay Moun Mein Beth Kar Muskaraney Waley,
Hafiz Khuda Tumara, Yea Rocket Chalaney Waley.''

won the day

 

[The Eagle]

Any idea about the engine? Is it WS-10 Series or AL-31FN Series?

On a lighter note; it was dark of the night. Gave a dry thrust run. Sound was huge. Shut it down. Nothing like wet could be checked from inlet. The hand returned without even dust on it. It is not dusty now a days.

what colors?

PAF somehow read the random comments on the forum about a certain wish of colour scheme - I believe they have come with rose mist scheme this time as it flies like a silver colour in bright daylight but then under clouds or in the night, adopts the rose shade or purple at some angles.

 

[araz]

if all of them don't have TVC and laser then its a waste of time.
I want TVC and ToT on F22 Frigates as well. cant settle for anything less.

And Delta Canards as well. The F22s will be useless without the canards. And what about IFR.???

Which plane in the background.... 15 or16 of J?

 

[Rank]

And did it have a single piece wide MFD display or did have a 3 large MFD setup ( since they changed the HUD to the same as the JF17 Block III - wonder if it has adopted the same new wide MFD display system aswell ).

Or like this ?

If the screen malfunction, everything will be fuckedup in full lol whereas, on the traditional one, the pilot still have options to do something lol

 

[Reichmarshal]

You should have all the reasons to be jealous....my kitty includes alot, to name a few....Mirages, Blk 52s, J-10s, Agosta 90s, host of naval ships including F22, drove VT-4, T-80, AZ, M113s, fired multiple artillery guns (including my favorite, 130 mm M-59), Baktar Shikan ATGM.....

i fired my first M 109 SP at tilla when I was in KG ...............no joke

J10 are coming and they are coming to kamra. Talked to a serving wing commander. Pilot training is complete the conversion was done in china. PAF already started working on its tactics long time ago. PAF is excited for PL 15. That's all I was told.
