Watch the skies tommorow
YJ-91 which is the Chinese version of Russian Kh-31 ARM.Which anti radiation missile would be used with the J-10??
Look forward to your input.We will talk about it in the NGFA thread.
The J-10CE is a well-optimized air-to-air fighter with a higher-output AESA radar than the JF-17 Block-3. It now has an asset that can take on practically any current threat in the air. The PAF can also scale its fleet up relatively affordably (compared to competing Western or Russian options).
I always assumed J-10C to have an AESA. But not so sure after reading this thread.The J-10CE is a well-optimized air-to-air fighter with a higher-output AESA radar than the JF-17 Block-3.

it is always known to have the KLJ-7A AESA radar with side looking TR modules as well unlike the JF-17 which has the KLJ-7A air cooled AESA and without the side looking TR modules. That's about all that I know...but J-10C indeed has an AESA radar, that much is confirmed.I always assumed J-10C to have an AESA. But not so sure after reading this thread.
I am surprised to read here that J-10C has an unknown radar that has no name or designation yet.
Do we know ANYTHING about the radar on J-10C at all? It surely should be AESA since even JF-17 has one but how do we know? And how do we know it's better?
What makes you think that? Doesn't seem likely.it is always known to have the KLJ-7A AESA radar with side looking TR modules as well unlike the JF-17 which has the KLJ-7A air cooled AESA and without the side looking TR modules.

You can joke but you should know that I suggested no such thing. I merely asked what do we actually know? Guessworks and conjectures can be infinite. It can be right or wrong but not the same as reliable info.Pakistan obviously blew money on a completely new airframe with a new engine just to acquire a bird with an inferior radar to the JF-17. Very likely.

The radar in the first picture (in the aircraft) does NOT look like the one in the 2nd picture. As I said its not likely, infact you're the first and only one to suggest it.
It would be a good starting point to compile all the officially known info with sources in one place. That way one can have a referrence point for the discussions. If as you say even J-10B radar is not confirmed till now then it would be a long time till we know about J-10C, so it would help to have some verified basics.Because J-10B used either a PESA or AESA (it is still uncertain what type and good arguments made for both with some evidence suggesting PESA and some suggesting AESA) either way it is 100% an phased array type radar.
J-10C 100% uses an AESA and it is a different radar to J-10B. This is not only known but also officially said.
JF-17 Block 3 uses AESA. J-10CE offers AESA. How is it possible that PAF would not buy J-10CP/CE with AESA?
