they do look similar. is this just a helmet mounted display or a targeting/aiming helmet sight as well for the PL10 AAM?First ones j-20 and last one is l-15
Compare the last pic with this pic . They look similar View attachment 607204
Is PL-10 in current weapons package of thunders ? Block 1 and 2 ? Do we have it ? And how does it compare with A-Darter and Sidewinders ?they do look similar. is this just a helmet mounted display or a targeting/aiming helmet sight as well for the PL10 AAM?
for Block-1/2, i don't think so,PL-10 is for block-3, we didn't know much about A-Darter, as well as we didn't know about Technical specification of PL-10 much, so we didn't compare PL-10 with A-Darter and SidewindersIs PL-10 in current weapons package of thunders ?

PL-10E info is available online bro, the AAM has been offered for export multiple times on events.for Block-1/2, i don't think so,PL-10 is for block-3, we didn't know much about A-Darter, as well as we didn't know about Technical specification of PL-10 much, so we didn't compare PL-10 with A-Darter and Sidewinders
where on wiki, i talking in detail info broPL-10E info is available online bro, the AAM has been offered for export multiple times on events.
A PL-10E AAM was on display in front of a PLAAF J-10B fighter at the 2016 Zhuhai Airshow. PL-10(K/AKK-10?) is a new generation IIR-guided HOBS missile in the same class of AIM-9X, ASRAAM, A-Darter, AAM-5 and IRIS-T. It features an IIR seeker(containing a 128x128 focal plane array), a laser proximity fuze and TVC, giving the missile a 90° off-boresight angle and a max load of 55g. PL-10 possesses an excellent IRCCM capability against modern fighter aircraft maneuvering at high-gs. It also has a "lock-after-launch" capability, which could extend its range to BVR. When coupled with HMDS, the missile allows the pilot to engage a target over his shoulder without maneuvering the aircraft extensively. Similar to AAM-5 and IRIS-T, the latest design (circa 2013) features 4 enlarged tail stabilizing fins plus 4 narrow stabilizing strips attached to the mid-section of the missile body, which help maintain missile's maneuverability at the terminal stage after the solid motor stops working. PL-10 has a length of 2.96m, diameter 0.16m, weight 105kg, max range 20km. The development of PL-10started in 2005 with a different tail stabilizing findesign and a test round was launched from the ground in November 2008. The development was thought to be a success after the missile was test-fired from a CFTE J-11B in 2010, and subsequently it entered the initial production in 2013. PL-10 was seen carried by J-10A, J-10B/C, J-11D and J-16 fighter bomber as well as internally by J-20 and FC-31 stealth fighters, replacing PL-8B. PL-10 was offered for export as PL-10E at the 2016 Zhuhai Airshow. It was rumored that the next generation of short-range IIR-guided missile (PL-16?) is already under development.where on wiki, i talking in detail info bro

You right. [emoji1]
Correct; this means the HMDS solution may be a hybrid version to mate to A-Darter. Only time will tell, if this does happen, PAF will be largest user and most like the first place where Darter will draw blood.A darter is claimed to have 100 g capability and range wise a bit shorter then British advance aam
The Pakistan Air Force listed the A-Darter as a potential option for the JF-17 Thunder Block-III in 2015, and Pakistan may be the country that has reportedly “expressed interest” in the missile.

Who else uses A Darter ?Correct; this means the HMDS solution may be a hybrid version to mate to A-Darter. Only time will tell, if this does happen, PAF will be largest user and most like the first place where Darter will draw blood.
This was between RSA/Brazil to be a completely ITAR free for their Gripen, Hawks.Who else uses A Darter ?
