Chengdu J-10 Multirole Fighter Air Craft News & Discussions

[SQ8]

If you develop a plane right now then it would be stupid to only think about the conventional rotating radar. Why not incorporating the slightly tilted attachment? And by the time it is ready then there is probably a big chance to add AESA.

I doubt you see the Block60 with lots of lower RCS developments. The one and only development is Silent Eagle and even then you have not extremely new plane and just look at the price. It is even more expensive then JSF! So adding DSI on the f16 might be interesting but probably costly. The USA is not willing to go the lower RCS way with big structural redesigns. They jump from 4th gen to F22 and JSF.

About FC20 being multirole. Most of the planes are multi/omi role. Even low RCS planes need to do A2A and A2G. You have some specialists like F117 but that is some time ago.

About nose effect. There is a whole different effect if you have side inlets. The chin intake is a lot bigger to compensate the nose upwards movement.

I was referring to the F-16 DSI testbed only...
Which was a testbed for the DSI.. and did not need any modifications to the nose.

And yes.. its quite likely that you would expect the FC-20 to have an AESA system on a swashplate.

The US is avoiding the stealth structural upgrades because it is hedging its bets on the JSF.. since it only has a limited budget..and any F-15SE type upgrades will result in taking up the share of the JSF meaning shaving off orders.. as it is the program is having setbacks.
But there are now talks underway for a "golden" eagle type of upgrade for the F-15C fleet to augment the F-22's.. so while there may not be any structural changes.. a good dosage of RAM and something akin to the ASPJ would be in the order..

The bold part.. I stated to reiterate for those with doubts about the FC-20..especially the more vocal(or what would be the accurate term for a typed statement??) ones.

F-16 Vista with TVC
Vista's TVC nozzle max movement is 17degrees and it can do Cobra maneuver. I wish JF-17 future blocks and J-10B to have TVC engine.

Who were the opponents of J-10 in that mock air battle?

CCTV showed footages of J-11 and J-8II but since the channel is notorious for posting the wrong planes, no one is sure at this point.
