PL-15 to be deployed on JF-17

[BHarwana]

Just pointing out a fake article about armaments that are for a weapon system that is Chinese (J-10C).

Any thoughts on why you said they are credible?

You need AESA to fire PL-15 and AESA is available for block 2 as well.

Most of the max range is in ideal parameters, say 30000 plus height non fighter type and incoming , not tail chasing , when you drop height, add chasing and maneuvering target max range drops to 1/2 or 1/3 so these max ranges are just ....

Mig-21 bison with r-73 was brought down by aim-9 or pl-5e , r-73 outrages both by far ...

pl-15 is specially designed to target early warning aircrafts.it's true range is not known but articles suggest that it's 300 km.greater distance means less chance of hitting the target.this missile could be deadly for indian tankers and early warning aircrafts.most of indian early warning aircrafts fly near indian punjab border so it's easy to kill these types of planes by using pl-15.jf-17 block 3 will use klj-7a aesa radar.

PL-15 is a high agility missile and has AESA radar guidence this is not just a tanker killer it is a fighter killer. The best part about this news which every one is ignoring that China has cleared this missile for deployment with Pakistan.

Great news. Somewhere Wikipedia mentions 400 KM range, is that for PL-21 or PL-15?

Having said these ranges again are at ideal conditions and parameters

pl 15, 300 to 400km range.

Chinese has change the designation of these AWACS killer missile to PL-XX, not PL-15 BVRAAM.

PL-XX is a huge long missile carry only by J-16 due to its enormous size. It is designed to hit AWACS or Tanker at 300-400km range, aircraft with low and slow agility.

PL-15 is a new type of BVRAAM design to replace PL-12 and to suit fitting in the weapon bay of J-20. In terms of performance, it will has a slight performance over PL-12 despite having much smaller profile of it.

Estimate max range at 150km with max attitude. I believe the true no escape zone to hover around 70-80km in most scenario.

 

[sparten]

Is it even possible to integrate a missile which has more range than the Radar itself ?

1) AESA RADAR is needed for Thunders to fire PL15 autonomously.
2) Besides that, using data links and info from AEW and or GCI fan also be used, but has a much lower probability.

This missle is for J-10C

Hi,

Before the JF17 became fully operational---we all had biases---intentionally / purposefully / with or without prejudice /---some of it was pure bias and some of it was to confuse the enemy---and that---the enemy will have to judge---.

Now that the JF17's performance is out in the open---most people who had no idea of it---find that it is not just the aircraft that is competing---it is a package of different aircrafts working as a team to make the operation a success.

So---we cannot just look at the performances of the aircraft individually---. Because in modern warfare---individual performances would take a back seat and a better team effort will win.

So---based on that---team JF17 performance was above par---.

I am going to take it further---.

It is not the JH7A that had to compete---it would be the strike group that would have to compete with the enemy intercept group---.

 

[Wow]

If this news turns out to be true can you imagine the constipation it will cause on the other side of the border
