J10A tare weight is 9750KG, and J10b is 8800Kg(using DSI and composite material). J10b AESA has 1200 units of T/R module, I thinkJ10 c will at least have 1600 plus.
The problem is not China can't produce reliable fighter engine, what we lack of is scale production to meet our huge requirement. Now all the WS10 engines are supplied to mount J11b and J16, no enough engine for J10B as of now. We might mount WS10a on J10b in the following batch. We will be...
IAF don't want to operate same fighter as PAF, and you don't prefer Russian Mig29 either. The reason why you go for Mig29k is because you don't have any choice.
Mig29k and Vikra is a binding business, you don't have choice.
Mig29? Better forget it. The most important issue now is to replace RD93 with indegenous WS13 on JF17 block 3. It will reinforce Pakistan's national security when they engages with IAF. Russia is not a reliable friend to be trusted when India get involved, especially at war.
As long as your...
If J10b is one ton lighter than J10A by using DSI and composite material, that means J10b could carry more weapon load than J10b. If having the same max payload of J10A,then it will overtake J10A in WVR fight due to better TWR.
Everyone knows what 1 ton weight means in aviation industry.
CAC...
Whe you get adapted to the custom of PLAAF of developing fighter, you will have to believe. I think Cirr is a friend I could trust for reliable source.
Picture will be given soon.....I feel tortured and so happy!
According to Cirr, it's designed with advanced IMA structure.
We finally apply some J20 tech on J10c.
Next step is to develop CFT for Jf17 and mount a AESA radar on it , hope Block 3 will achieve it.
I can't help but exciting to death!
Every time I see the confident face of PAF's Chief on TV, I think he must have a reason why PAf don't choose J10b. Today the problem is figured out when China...
With AESA radar 2.0 and conformal fuel tank, might external weapon hanger box developed for stealthy. Everybody cheer! PLAAF officer Du Wen Long had proved it at CCTV news yesterday. credit to My fellow Cirr!
Now I'm quite pretty sure why PAF didn't choose J10b, cause they damn know we are...
