Isn’t R-Darter just a carbon copy of the Derby? Just like AIM-120A and RB 99.
No
I double checked in game stat cards, as well as datamined stats, yeah at least right now they are exactly the same.
I mean, in this way, they would add a better pl-12a, which has a better dv like r-27er, as J-10 don’t has as much missile hard point as others, it would be fair
They should be (irl and ingame), considering that they look almost the exact same. I’ve heard people say the opposite, but no sources were provided, aside from a forum saying they allegedly had a difference of datalink and seeker, but that can also just be because different parts are available. Take this with a grain of salt though.
One brochure mentioned ASRAAM and AMRAAM
maybe, close to what we have in game now, dv of 3Ma
However, it is difficult for the growth rate of PL12 in the game to reach the growth rate of Mach 3, and when I launch at Mach 1.4 at 10,000 meters, the maximum speed of PL12 can only reach Mach 3.8
Does anyone have any non-photoshopped images of the j10 carrying more than 6 missiles? Cause people claim it can belly mount missiles but I can’t find any pictures of it with belly mounted missiles.
it can’t, the inner pylon which usually carry fuel tanks, is said to be able to carry missiles. it’s same as other under wing pylons, but carry pl-12 will cause the smoke get in the engine so usually no
I meant the sides of the belly like this diagram shows. I’ve never seen anything mounted there on an actual plane.

though for exhibition
as I said, the smoke would cause some damage to the engine, meaning extra maintenance cost, so usuallt no

well usually this is good enough for Gaijin if a report has to be raised.
Considering that gaijin does not add equipment failure in the game, I believe it should be feasible
总结
Does the J-10A in the first img have both the targeting pod for bombs and for anti-radiation missiles?
I think so, the closer one does seem to be a radar receiver.

Yeah but still no proof it can mount missiles down there.
Only exists in the principle model stage
for exhibition
so it can carry 250kg LGB on body pylon?
and the pod is mounted on middle pylon, not usual
