Chengdu J-10, History, Performance & Discussion


the “leading edges” (sorry if it’s a bad translation my English is bad) of the j10A are not animated, we can ask the question if they have been coded, this can have a negative impact on the stability and energy retention of the j10A at low speed

No its NATO restricted.

Nobody so far has been able to copy the system or make one quite as capable. Its also very unique in that BOL Flares are Pyrophoric.

Also several nations doctrine like China and France have emphasised that defence against IR threats is unlikely and therefore a lower flare count in exchange for other systems is prioritised on the Rafale and J-10.

PLA Guided Bombs LS and FT serie

Gaijin is modeling J-10 and JAS 39 to act like fully stable aircraft, the animation of these parts is not great on either aircraft.

hopefully ecm comes to the game sometime soon to make up for the lack of cms on some planes, though I have no clue how they’d implement it

They’re mostly used for chaff anyways

Does anyone know if J-10A uses night vision goggles?

Looks like it was used in some night training. So I guess it has NVG.

Now that it’s an option, did the j10 carry any gps guided stuff?

yes it uses LS-6 bombs, I made a bug report to implement the Chinese GPS bombs, maximum support would be good

The glide bombs? Not sure those will be added.

neat

IMO TT after J-6 should be separated into a “heavy fighter” line continuing up to J-11 and a “light fighter” line up to J-10.

The heavy fighter line can put in J-6A J-8I, J-8B, J-8F, J-11, and J-11A if the unimplemented aircraft are included.
Light fighter one can put J-6III, J-7II, J-7C, J-7E, J-7G, J-10 etc.

It is really weird to see J-10A goes after F-16A MLU.

I haven’t seen a video or photo, but I am sure I saw something saying it can somewhere but just HMD covers a lot of necessary use of Night vison.

I would actually weirdly want that cause i need F16 RN, and also considering J8I, J6III, J7C J7G are not in game, I think the chance of them lining up the multirole fighters is pretty big, but temporarily (hopefully). I would like J8H with PL11 and PL8 to come in on the heavy line. Q5 (first prototype) could also be interesting with PL2 capability as it was a direct modification from J6 and designated for AA combat fighter; J8 modified with F16 stuff could be a fun event vehicle as well.


72 large acknowledged!

are there any standoff guided missiles “to combat spaa” that the J10 can use?

Kd88’s I think. It’s not really a sead plane.
