Positive sweep is conventional sweep wings.
Negative sweep is the case of the SU47

In the game, the LS-6 250kg bomb cannot achieve a 3x3 configuration on the J-10C’s triple ejector racks and is currently limited to 2x2 due to its oversized model (it is larger than the standard 250-3 bomb). This is also an issue that needs to be fixed.

This proves that Gaijin harbors deep hatred for China, especially since the Rafale and Su-30MKI being shot down by J-10Cs only fueled his hatred for the J-10Cs.

that is just wrong

maybe you should look at the actual drag values instead of the drag coefficent

the J-10 actually has less drag than the rafale until mach 1

it dosent prove anything because he is spreading blatant disinformation to push his absurd point

You should check it with its composite pylons, massive drag

and the SU-30 will still have more drag than the J-10C
becasue the missiles will add the same ammount of drag and the Su-30 can carry more missiles so it will have more added drag

yeah for the Su-30

the problem is after mach 1, caused by the huge increase of cd0 parameter, which is almost doubled than rafale and ef2000
and clearly, the supersonic drag is more important in game

again you guys dont know what you are talking about and you shouldnt talk about it without a basic understanding of aerodynamics

Yes, but the drag problem occurs on the airframe; the J10A and C have far too much drag, the drag of the weaponry is another subject

the J-10 dosent have too much drag

it has way less drag than the Su-30

it has less drag than the Eurofighter and it also has less drag than the rafale

its not about missile and anything, its the pylon drag

pylon drag isnt modeled in game

becasue if it was the f-18 would be way slower

We’re talking about drag, you’re showing an engine performance curve

let me just borrow this for a quick answer. and I’m sure there is enough talking in this thread, explaining J-10’s design is more focus on supersonic not subsonic

most pylon drag isn’t modeled in game. only in some helis, so it’s the plane’s drag

guess what? try it with and without, significant difference

reading?

it clearly says drag and its until kgf

thats the unit drag is measured in

image

guess what

that appies to every aircraft ingame

try it then, shooot every missile with empty pylon, just cant get above M1.3

you cant just compare the Cd0 of two completly different planes

i dont know if you noticed but this:

is different from this:
