frogs can be very cute as well
There are rumors going around in CDF that Chengdu is developing a new enhanced model of J10, it was internally referred as "big eye froggy", because it is a twin engine semi stealthy plane that looks like a frog from behind. It could be a natural extension of framed guestimation by Chinese bloggers after the leak of J10B pictures over internet, (the long-rumored DSI version just revealed to be reality, why not the twin engine version?). But who knows, even US can only equip with limited amount of 4th gen fighters, China may have to resort to a solution which is less expensive and quicker to be implemented.

its offered
but can the govt afford the meteor?
it costs 1.5 million dollars PER MISSILE
thats almost 4x more than aim-120 c5, 15x more than pl-12, 2x more than the aim-120 d.
and the R series prices are not listed, but expect them to be 1.5x cheaper then the aim-120 series.
and 500 aim-120 c5's are already ordered and they're pretty good but 500 is a low quantity compared to about 3000-5000 bvr missiles the IAF has.
dont deny this because in 5 years there will be 500+1000 pl 12 which equals 1500. if u can get 1500 in 5 years than the IAF can easily get over 5000 in 20 years.
Nobody knows.It's a highly secret project.I guess by the time PAF will get these babies then AESA RADARs will be quite cheap compared to today's cost.
can any one tell if AESA is on cards for J-10B n which AESA will be used ofr J-10B??
