Chengdu J-10, History, Performance & Discussion

I hope they don’t throw out the possibility said loadout configuration because they just recently closed the report for PL-12s on the J-7A on the basis of being a display/model aircraft

Gaijin seems to be a bit inconsistent about this. I remember the ability of JH-7A to use smaller guided bombs on various pylons were added based on a few airshow photos.

“It can carry them but you have no proof that it can fire them” seems to be their stance

That’s so lame, I hope when the J10/J10A is added (hopefully soon if the rumors and leaks are correct), all the knowledgable players mobilize to push the devs so the aircraft gets an accurate loadout and isn’t gimped.

It’s always like trying to pull teeth once the update releases because devs refuse to touch released vehicles unless they have a once in a blue moon reason to touch it.

Maybe it’s because bombs requires less, almost like as long as you can carry it, you can use it. missiles not.
but there are enough information, about the inner pylon can carry missiles, not only pictures

If estimate the size based on a person, the larger countermeasure is about 4cm×6cm.


Two different sizes of countermeasures may be used to protect against different types of threats.
Smaller countermeasures can replace larger countermeasures two to one, and are approximately 4cm x 3cm in size.The smaller countermeasures are also significantly larger than the regular countermeasures in the game (1inch x 1inch).
The J10 has two dispensers on the left and right sides of the rear fuselage, each loaded with 18 large countermeasures or 9 “larger” countermeasures, for a total of 36 to 72.


Of course, in some training and performance situations, the J-10 may seal the dispenser …

I found some su-25’s flare img, it seems su-25’s large flare is also very big, but the small one is very small.

was this ever done irl or is this an assumption based on “it does one or the other irl so itll do both”

Option 2. There’s nothing physically stopping it from mounting all 6 and by gaijin logic that’s good enough.

Pl-5’s are a bit concerning. They can’t really weasel around the Pl-8B, the Pl-5EII (Pl-5C and E are the same, next upgrade was EII → DE) shares the same technology as the Pl-8B. Seeker: Pl-8B = Pl-9C = TY-90 = Pl-5EII. The only thing comparable would be the AAM-3, which is already heavily nerfed. I’m going to bet they will give us a ‘Pl-5E’ and make up IRCCM for it with ‘sekret sources’. Would love to be wrong

Don’t think that’s 100% correct on the bomb load.
