check my former reply, there are other pic and my explain
Oh right… how do other planes deal with this, like the su27 that just straight up mounts missiles to the engines?
they use drop pylon, drop the missile then the rocket burn. PL-12 both able to use slid pylon and drop.
the smoke issue is just a inference, and can be wrong
Well there’s gotta be some reason cause most nations will try to do shows of force by sticking as many missiles on their planes as they can for photoshoots.
chinese army seldom do this

Seldom show off? They do military parades all the time with big lines of tanks and missile launchers and the like. Guess the Air Force doesn’t care though.
Gib J10B to makeup for the nightmare that is the J11A)))

J-10B would be 13.3 BR but gajin ready 2 or 3 years
There’s a possibility that this year gajin could add Chengdu J-10A
13.3? It’s got a pesa radar.
Obviously, the LS-6 diameter is much larger than PL-12.
At least there are no hardware restrictions, the ACMI pod needs to be connected to the 1553B bus via missile pylons.
总结
And the valid source was verified by the administrator David_Bowie , the source shows that missiles can be mounted at six hardpoints on the wings.

Ya never know
I can’t read Chinese so it’s really hard for me to find a lot of this stuff. Thank you so much.
But planes on parades usually take no extrenal weapon :(
The publicize of PLA is much different from western countries, they don’t like to show new things and how much their weapon could do, as there’s a speaking: Confidentiality is about winning

why the pod only in side when carrying missiles
Well by the time they show something, it probably is already near service ready anyway, but the Zhuhai air show has given us a lot of info on these stuff.
Until November of this year!
Well, I am a big fan of the air show, last year they had an online platform for vehicles, so I hope they can do it again. I really want to go to the air show, but seems like the online thing was a bit chaotic and I would like to see all the live action as well.

I am patiently waiting for J10 variants to be added. As well as an FCK-1 and JF-17
