Chengdu J-10, History, Performance & Discussion

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:

me when i lie:

7min fuel 4 missile wow, take it in battle

fuel dosent matter for top speed

and carrying missiles will only make me slower but sure i can do it again with full fuel and no missiles

and the result will be the exact same

the drag on the different parts of the fuselage




In aeronautics, drag in kgf is the air resistance converted into kilograms-force. It’s used to measure the force opposing the aircraft as it moves forward. Therefore, engine power is what’s needed to compensate for this drag.

You’re talking about drag in relation to engine power, that’s why I pointed out that your curve is linked to engine performance and not the fuselage. You’ve used the wrong category when you created your curve.

thats not the drag

it is the drag coefficent

the drag coefficent is used to calculate the drag

iam not

you just have no clue what you are actually talking about

you still don’t have any proof that why J-10 should have such high cd0.
while all secondary analysis suggests it focus on supersonic fighting.
J-10A’s mid-range coupled canard wing and supersonic rectangular inlet suggests it was born more as an interceptor, and the background of its design also suggests this. in J-10C it changed to DSI but the basic design still remains same.

well, in this part you are right

and you dont have any proof that it should be lower

so you can stop arguing now

is this enough fuel for you?

no I have. at least secondary
you know you can never find real curve like this

you are also not looking at teh drag coefficent for a given speed but at the coefficent for A GIVEN AOA

suprise a deltawing has a higher drag coefficent at high AoA than a fighter with a conventional wing

yeah, my mistake take a year it eventially coming to that speed as far as the darg is lower than engine power, but the accerlation after M1.2 is significantly slower compare with the others make it in battle or test it with time check, meanwhile the others easily get above M1.5

Then lower the BR, this isnt 14.3 performance isnt it?

play it, see if u get it above 1 KD, as your opinion its a good one, check mine anytime
