What does "J" in all kind of fighters stands for? I could not find in wikipedia also.
Chinese designation for “fighter aircraft”
It means “annihilate”

J == 歼 == Fighter, the first PinYin of Chinese word of "Jian/歼".What does "J" in all kind of fighters stands for? I could not find in wikipedia also.
I read somewhere J stands for Jian (Fighter). Is it true?Chinese designation for “fighter aircraft”

Absolutely China WS-10 jet engines, not AL-31F. But how can i identify J-11BS and J-16, they look same both r two seats and developed base on J-11B fighter. J-11BS == Su-27UBK for Su's pilot training, J-16 == Su-30mkk for multi-role attack.J-16 is probably China's 1st 4.5th gen fighter jet using WS-10(as seen on the J-11BS below) for maiden and trial flights。
Platform performance is approximately equal, but China enjoys better C3I support that can maximize the plane's effectiveness. Chinese planes are supported by AEW and EW platforms, both force multipliers.How is the performance of those aircrafts if compared to SU-30MKs of Vietnam?
Thank you very much.J-11BS and J-16 are identical, one useful tip on visual identification is that J-11BS's front undercarriage has one wheel (ie, one tyre), while J-16's front under carriage is fitted with twin wheel. These may be because J-16 is heavier than J-11BS when fully loaded.
