Gaijin: I don’t care about the real data, all I need is APG-66 leather cover. Thank you.

I doubt you can find the spec of ANY radar used by PLAAF aircraft currently in service, including those AESA radars

Can J10A carry Russian weapon system?u know,R73,R77,etc.PLAAF have bought a huge amount of those missles at the turn of 20th century.Thus have they ever tried to intergrate those weapon systems into J10A?I tried to find pictures to prove this but I found 0 picture of J10A carrying R73/77s.
no，The entire J10 series adopts PLAAF’s own weapon configuration, namely PL8, PL11, PL12, PL15. The PLAAF fighter jet equipped with Russian weapons should be the J11A MUL upgraded with assistance from Belarus
theoretically, it can. But yes, nobody saw. like the inner pylon’s missile carrying ability, it can, but never seen.
但其实你可以在很多地方见到关于J10A能挂R73/77的说法，国内外都有。2021年9月15日的报道里配图说J10AH挂载了R73，但清晰度不高无法确定，第二张的R73发射图片则明显是另外的飞机（翼尖挂架）
hope Gaijin will admit these louding capabilities
Do we know how many flares the variants had?
Frankly despite me loving this plane i have no idea in hell how many flares any of the variants have LMAO
Not the A variant, but it still should get countermeasure pods on both sides. Can’t quite tell how many, it looks like either a 5 x 5 or a 6 x 5 configuration per pod. So between 100 to 120 flares total. Doesn’t look like the Type 941 pods either, so they should be high caliber flares.

The picture posted by @NCC105 is much clearer. It shows a 5x4 arrangement with 4 potential containers, 2 on each side, for a total of 80
That looks like it could be large caliber CMs, 9 per container. Would be nice if they ever let us decide whether we want more small CMs or less large
Seemed clear to me ^^"
1st missiles would be the inner pylon ones, then External ones, to end up with dual pylon ones.
But yeah,… the minor mistakes kills aircraft and loadout.
Yep, I miscounted.
Small flare pods count at 18, middle top and bottom are pod mounts thus only 18 per pod. Total of 72 small caliber flares, or 18 large caliber and 36 small caliber flares… Awfully low amounts seeming how it’ll be 12.7+

intake mounted hardpoints only for 250kg bombs and pods, but not sure if guided bomb can be mounted. Usually J-10 needs fuel tanks in inner hardpoint for patrol mission. And some sources say that launch missile in inner pylon will cause the engine inhaling missile’s exhaust gas, not that harmful but it’s better to avoid, to save some work. and you can see guided bombs or Anti-ship missiles in inner pylon, so theoretically, it can use missiles in inner pylon.

It is possible for wing tip mounted PL8 as seen from J11B, it simply needs a modification of the wing tip to be L shaped to allow PL8. It is possible for PL12 on the bottom, since you can do similar things on J11A. However I do agree it is photoshot and the real position for loadouts should be where the extra fuel tank is.
IDK, the engine is still russian AL series? as the colour suggest, since most chinese domestic ones are bright silver.
From my knowledge all J10C have WS-10 engines…
