Chengdu J-10 Multirole Fighter Air Craft News & Discussions

More advanced variant...

So the long rumoured J-10D? ... or what I'm much more eagerly wait for is a dedicated twin-seater based on the J-10C. IMO this one would be a truly magnificent fighter.

Good you finally posted the news. Taiwanese been poking fun at this earlier on news articles posted J-20 photo but mentioned most likely Su-35 which is illogical coz it has 2 engines. Based on prescription, it should be single engine fighter. Before the world could laugh, another F-35 crash landed in Eglin airbase the 2nd time but the authority tried to put blame on pilot error rather than technical that caused the plane crashed.

Found on YouTube copy paste video posted by hongkong user. The 1 who witnessed the crash in first video said an aircraft has crashed, the lady asked what aircraft then the guy replied fighter jet. Lady asked where, he said the field there

Probably the "5th generation" J-10 variant Pupu mentioned earlier in July

Actually semi stealth J-10 wouldn't be a bad idea. PLAN would go with J-35 and maybe even new J-10 and PLAAF with J-20 and the new J-10.

no need, I think. two seat fighter is less and less needed in future. I don't think PLA will spent resource on 2 seat J-10 when they already have J-20.
I would rather relocate those resource to 2 seat J-20 which is more needed.
One of the future air dominance may be 2 seat manned fighter with unmanned fighters. The back seat pilot is unmanned fighter controller.

Is it possible to apply ws 15 to j10 without too much work?

What do you mean with "without too much work?"

Like swapping WS-10 for Ws-15 on the J20's

It is possible but CAC must also make the J-10s have other 5th generation features such as internal weapons bays, RCS reduction measures, in order to make such a huge engine change "worth it". The intakes of the J-10 would have to undergo a significant modification I imagine.

And sorry again to ruin the party... that's impossible. You cannot add weapon bays to the J-10. Otherwise it would be more or less a new fighter.

I meant make a new fighter on the basis of the J-10

But that is then no longer a "fighter on the basis of the J-10"

J-20 used to be called J-10's "dual-engine version".
