hopefully they go down the jumbo flare route instead of just 72 generic medium CMs

All we really have is pictures.


Count away. This is mirrored on both sides.

What about HMD range ? There’s no way J-8F has 19km but J-10A is limited to yet again a miserable hmd range of 10 km

Dev server. Almost definitely just a copy paste of the mig29smt’s radar so take it with a grain of salt.

The ACM range is shown as only 10km, but it seems to actually be 19km. I can lock on targets with ACM even at 15km.

I can’t lock targets at 5km. Doesn’t seem like a very good radar. At least compared to the f16 or jh7a.

There are 6 in the teaser… WTF Gaijing?

You can’t see if it’s a PL8B in game cause the model is a PL8B but it says PL8… We might just have to wait a bit.

They made 4 presets, but it’s definitely 6 rounds. Don’t worry.

How do you get dev server?

is that black square another one or a vent

Vent

The J8F, J10A and JF 17 use Beidou or glonass system for guide bombs (Chinese GPS system) the weapons in question are the LS-6 250/500 and FT-3/4 series of bombs

in the JF-17 devblog the “BRM-1” weapon was mentioned, I found very little information, mentioned mainly on the DCS forums
777

The BRM-1s are guided rockets, thanks once again to our friends at DCS

for the little information found was linked to the JF 17, maybe the J10A can use the BRM-1 too??

Estimate, there will definitely be errors, but it should be acceptable.


Assuming the ground crew is 1.6 meters tall (the minimum height allowed to join the Chinese military), the size of the dispenser is approximately 21cm×12cm.
The size of a single larger CM is no less than 4cm×6cm.

The two types of CM dispensers are compatible with each other. The size of the larger CM is twice that of the smaller CM. Therefore, the size of the smaller CM is not less than 3cm×4cm.

Currently, the MJU-7 (5.2cm×2.5cm, 13cm2) is also counted as large CM, not standard CM, and is similar in size to the smaller CM of the J-10 (not less than 12cm2).
So why not 72 large CMs?
