Chengdu J-10, History, Performance & Discussion

you forgot about chanell loss. ( but j-10 have one of lowest loss on top tier jets 5%. ) whith 5% loss boost with current al-31fn will be 0.9-1t

Thank you very much for your correction. If we follow this calculation, then the thrust of the 31FN3 in the game would actually be 13.6 tons, without subtracting the channel loss. In that case, with the WS10B’s 14.5 tons of thrust, the displayed thrust on the J-10C’s stat card in the game should be 13.77 tons?

The J-10A has a CL of 3.84% im pretty sure

They do indeed need those air-to-ground weapons. In War Thunder, China might be the only one that doesn’t have ir-guided weapons.

Those weapons are necessary for China tech-tree

Did anything get changed before the live or are we still stuck with the worst possible menglong

Does anyone have any news on the YJ-83 and KD-88? I have a feeling foreigners are going to further disadvantage the Chinese nation compared to others on the subject of AGMs

Also it might just come into the update without even a devblog since Gaijin had to rush to holidays.

kinda weird to me that they didnt make a dev blog for the Su-30MKK and make us able to pre order it

Yeah this entire update with like MiG-25, J10C JAS-39E and all this without a devblog makes it look like Gaijin just can’t wait for christmas.

It’s disappointing with every major update now. Gaijin simply doesn’t put effort into these large updates; they just prefer to copy and paste various elements and ignore all kinds of bugs.

Praying for the WS10B to manifest tomorrow…
