Chengdu J-10 Multirole Fighter Air Craft News & Discussions

Now the image is also showing that the PAF FC-20s will be a bit different and would be more capable too..... They would be in a style like the Su-30 tandem seat.

dude, arent twin-seat configs for these sort of planes only for trainer variants?

moste of the time yes but some ACs have tandom seates for precision air strikes and recon

Although I was with the older 28 F-16s with MLU Upgrade along with the 31 we have and instead of going for Block-52s PAF should have looked towards FC-20s in a numbers like 70s or so....

fc-20 is untested in combat. f-16 at the other hand is a battle-proven plane hence they chose it.

going for more fc-20s is useless. upgrading jf-17 to better standards, with more composites, new engine, radar,
and conformal fuel tanks (as on the ones in your avatar) to make it more or less comparable to f-16 is the best
option. far cheaper than 42 million-per piece fc-20 and better than going for sanction-prone american planes

don't worry we will test them

That trend is no longer existent..
The entire F-16I fleet are dual seaters.. as is going to be the MMRCA.

the ignorants dont even see that lavi and j-10 has more differences in size and even design then say mirage2000 and LCA or typhoon and rafale. Antibody posted design sketches, anyone intersted should see them.

lets see will ws-10 become the main engine in j-10 or not..if it does it would mean complete self reliance in aircrft industry for china

lavi was israeli design. it is widely assuned tht j10 is lavi design. there was a time when usa was not enemy of China.americans were planning to sell there engine and hardware to china. it is widely believed tht americans persuades israelis to provide lavi design to chinese.americans were planning to sabotage russian businessby enterING into chinese market. China bluffed both they copied american engine, russian plane and israeli design.

Don't you think, if what you stated had the teensiest bit of truth in it - that the Americans would have sold them jets rather than designs. Isn't that the whole reason why the Lavi project was stopped?

i agree but look at the next gens all r being madt to be single seaters with sensor collusion so gud only one pilot is required?

I think with the revelation of J-10B, J-20, J-21 ... the debate about origin of J-10 must be over! These projects are true reflection of Chinese military aviation industry.

there is no solid prove that J-10 is a copy of Lavi but rumors, but there is a documented account of the payment India made to France for the development of LCA.

if just by looking at CAC's development stage from early 60s to now you can find the consistancy of their fighter jet design and the reason it has high reputation within China because of its originitality, J-10 is based on J-9 that CAC had been working on for quite few years and agained canard experience from it, so from 60s, 70s, 80s, 90, and now all of their major designs are canard unlike less reputated (actually most critisized) SAC of sticking with Flank families.

bro inferior complex indians will not understand

You said it yourself man...so why drag the poor little LCA into all this... Every body knows the total "indigenous" developed LCA is having the likes of Russia,Israel,France even USA as "helpers"...LOL!

As far as J-10 being a copy of Lavi goes...even the "great" Israel (which according to our friends from across the border) has the best industry in the world wasn't able to finish Lavi....
Guess who did??....China....
(that is if you guys still consider it a copy)

So enough off topic discussion lets go back to the topic...

So can some body here tell me about the development of HMS's in China.. planned to be used on their newer jets like J-10B (in particular)

China is far head of India in the Combat airplane R&D.
