Chinese Air-To-Air missiles, History, Performance & Discussion

This is footage from quite a while ago—if I remember correctly, it’s from a program by CCTV before last October.

def not an SD-10, closer to PL-15 in terms of looks but fin set is still mismatched, could be a whole new missile based on PL-12

That one looks quite close to PL-12.

These are more like PL-15.

Close but not quite, the fins are slightly different, but I’m rather more interested than the avionics on their MiG-29s, assuming that these are actually modern missiles, does that mean either NK developed or China helped make a modern avionics suite for 9.12Bs? If so that would actually somehow make it one of the most advanced MiG-29s in the world if it has an AESA radar, maybe the KLJ7A since it’s practically made for jets like the MiG-29

Im not sure but here is a comparison on the other MiG photos having attach missiles… seems like pl-12AE

Could well have been a simple integration or an already existent upgrade for 912s. It’s possible that it received some of JF-17 stuff but much less than if it just used Russian radars with Chinese tech included.
