The J10/J10A BLCOK0 was just an extremely rare early production batch, they got PL12 launch capability very quickly and cannot be considered a representative aircraft

The J10 can carry at least two PL11。

2000s is the time where Chinese netizens are fantasizing trading 1 F-22 with 8 J-8II due to the horribly inferior equipments. Photoshopping our own equipment to create a false sense of security is very popular back then. There were also rumours of J-14 stealth fighter back then simply because someone made a very realistic looking photoshop. IIRC officials actually had to deny it.
Later, when military fans sneaked a photo of real J-20 prototype, the internet didn’t believe it and simply dismissed it as another photoshop, until the guy who took the photo were sentenced to jail for it.
That’s how severe photoshopping back then.

PL-11 will grant J-8F minimal head on capability that cannot be defeated with a simple pop of flare. However that’s off topic so let’s leave it there.

would love to see this in game after j8F (most likely after some other jets but it could be added first and then add predecessor) (and maybe all aspect pl5 for j7e)

I’m curious about J-10A’s 23mm capability maybe 220 round?

J-10A can still use PL-11 aspide missile right?
This will be perfect jet with Ja37C but more mauverable and better thrust and missile
yes
I hope to add j10a to wt this year.

So I can’t confirm the validity of these pics, but it would seem the J-10 can carry some very nasty loadouts if true.
Also, in regards to this last pic, can anyone confirm if that’s the C-704 missle being offered?
I believe the C-704 missles is the shorter AGM being presented…

There are a lot of photoshopped images of J-10
So I’ve heard, but the top two images seem plausible, and without any direct evidence that they are photoshopped, I would assume them too be legit.

Then I would assume that the C-704 could be mounted on all the same spots as the KD-88 at the very least?
They’re very obvious, look closer. Wing tip PL-8s, and belly mounted PL-12s? Not a thing.
I guess your right, now that I look at them more. What’s the reason for so many photoshopped images then? This seems too be a continuous issue with some Chinese planes that people Photoshop lodouts possibilities on them

Because PLAAF was quite weak at the beginning of the 21st century, equipped with mostly J-8s and J-7s with only a handful of J-10s and Su-27s. Chinese military fans at that time were not confident about the strength of their aircraft and were always imagining having something better than they actually had.
There were even myths that eight J-8s could shoot down an F-22 by exhausting all its missiles in a suicide attack in Chinese military forums at that time.

Just some early PLAAF fan boys back 2000s trying to imagine better loadout on J10 than what had been officially reported.

Such a shame the J-10 wasn’t added, having to deal with more Russian copypaste jets will be tiresome
