Rampless Inlet
The J-10B features a chin-mounted diffuser supersonic inlet (DSI) air inlet. The J-10B features a chin-mounted diffuser supersonic inlet (DSI) air inlet. The traditional rectangle-shape air inlet on the J-10 requires a large moveable inlet ramp to generate a rearward leaning oblique shock wave to aid the inlet compression process. The traditional rectangle-shape air inlet on the J-10 requires a large moveable inlet ramp to generate a rearward leaning oblique shock wave to aid the inlet compression process. The ramp sits at an acute angle to deflect the intake air stream from the longitudinal direction. The ramp sits at an acute angle to the intake air Deflect stream from the longitudinal direction. The air inlets comprises many moving parts, which increases the aircraft's weight and radar reflections. The air Inlets comprises many moving parts, which increases the aircraft's weight and radar reflections.
The newly designed rampless inlet, first tested on the FC-1/JF-17 fighter design by Chengdu, employs a one-piece bump at the top of the inlet replacing the movable ramp. The newly designed rampless inlet, first tested on the FC-1/JF-17 fighter design by Chengdu, employs a one-piece bump at the top of the inlet replacing the movable ramp. This eliminates all moving parts on the inlet, lightening the overall weight and reducing the aircraft's radar signature.

The J-10B has been added with an electronic-optic targeting system (EOTS) commonly found on all fourth-generation Russian fighter aircraft such as Su-27 and MiG-29 . The J-10B has been added with an electronic-optic targeting system (EOTS) commonly found on all fourth-generation Russian fighter aircraft such as Su-27 and MiG-29 . Placed forward of the cockpit canopy to the right, the system comprises an infrared search and track (IRST) sensor and a laser rangefinder, which can detect enemy targets passively without requiring to turn on the fire-control radar, thus reducing the chance of the aircraft being detected.

Oct 2011, The People's Liberation Army Air Force has denied rumors of a Chinese fighter jet crashing during a recent test flight in Northwest China's Shaanxi Province, according to a post on the website of the flagship newspaper People's Daily.
"It is a completely fabricated report and a rumor," the post cited military sources as saying. "It is a completely fabricated report and a rumor," the post cited military sources as saying.
The rumor surfaced online after a microblog entry claimed that a J10B fighter jet recently crashed during a test flight in Shaanxi, causing the death of the pilot.

Recently, China announced the J-10B fighter plane.
The aircraft is the latest version of China's fourth generation fighter aircraft J-10, beling similar to FC-1, it used the clam-type inlet, abandoned the traditional rectangular inlet design, in the case of the normal work of the aircraft engine ensured, the aircraft was simplified design, reduced the moving parts of the inlet, in reducing the weight of the aircraft at the same time, also reduced the cross section of the aircraft's radar.
