AF F-16s are superior to USAF F-16s infacts the goodies n gadgets it has are only matched by israeli Sufas...
For eg:JHMS,SNIPER POD,JDAMS,AIM-120C,CFTs,APG-68(V) etc etc
R-77M and R-77M-PD is the SAME THING... AND ITS NOT IN SERVICE .. THE ARTICLE IS FRM LAST DECEMBER.. IF YOU HAVE SOME SECRET SOURCE POST THE LINK!
Another ignorant statment... Ever heard of J-10B OR FC20?
The Singapore AF, UAE AF aswell as Turkish AF operate similar or better versions.... as I said USAF never allows the best to get into the hands of the 3rd country even If USAF is operating basic D variant it would be on par with the latest D variant for other Airforces Israelis have been able to counter such mistreatment... thanks to their own booming Aircraft and electronic Industry... which is on par with the best.
R-77M is the improved R-77 with higher impulse rocket motor, better seeker in dual modes and Home on Jam capabilities and a little extra range over the basic R-77.
PD version is as I told under integration with various radar for further testing and would be seen soon In series production in a couple of year or so.. they have brought a few changes over the basic variant... and thats all which I can tell here in an open forum... If you want a better Insight you can consider senior Chinese Members who have good connections in CDF.
A would keep with my statement unless the final version of J-10B roll out... with PAF colors as for now its isn't clear when would that happen for PLAAF with all that engine issues.... buts thats another thing... remember wills and nots.
