Chengdu J-10, History, Performance & Discussion

how come the j10a radar gets src pd hdn but not tws hdn?

Same as Rafale.

btw, anyone know where gaijin got info for the 1473 radar? I’m surprised it’s a copy paste of the n010 radar/zhuk radar, which from what i recall correctly, the chinese declined because they believed their indigenous radar was better than it? It was offered for it though

It isn’t
It is closer to the f15c radar than the zhuk

how, it got the exact same stats other than range compared to the zhuk no?

No

got the exact same gimbal limits and scan patterns as zhuk, and scan speed

Thought you talked about the type1493

since it is a zhuk copy, it seems like its scan patterns are wrong, should be 10/30/60 like the real zhuk, same for anything that uses zhuk. also missing air to ground modes but idk if 1473 had these kind of modes.

Spoiler

they also denied reports using it

looks like they changed their stance, recent bug reports using that as the source have been accepeted, only old ones arent

I’m not sure how true this is but I’ve heard the Type 1473 is based of the Israeli EL/M 2035 which the Chinese purchase a handful of

Might have been the 2032 i can’t remember

Do you know if they used it on anything?

I don’t think they directly used it on anything

shouldn’t the 1473 radar be a copy paste of 2032 instead of zhuk then? (this was taken from dev when the sniper came)

it would lose the insane gimbal limits though… and imo best mech radar overall
nctr though is nice
