Further additions of the Z-10

Well the number of Z10 in service I think is quite limited, since its mass production started in 2011 and Z10M first showed up in 2015.

So that would mean the number of Z-10M is greater than normal Z-10s?

Not necessarily, but the estimated number in total from many is no greater than 300-500(all Z10s) so it does make sense for them all to be able to carry Fire and Forget missile since the modification is minor.

It’d probably be way more historic if they copypasted some aircraft radar warning receiver made in the same era rather than the low fidelity RWR they’ve kept for over half a year.

Like at least give us IFF on the radar, I’m tired of looking over my shoulder thinking whatever pinging me is an enemy jet, only to find out it’s a teammate buzzing me, or having to look at my team roster to make sure that it’s not a friendly SPAA pinging me

Is there a bug report on it?

Yeah, I made a list here of current reports that are passed to the devs but they’re kinda just sitting on it because obviously they have better things to address

I wonder why the Z-10 doesn’t have the HJ-11, I think it can operate them. I’m not sure if it would make it too much better but its better to have it than not.

The Z10 late also have up-pointing engines which looks pretty weird, do they use the same engines or does Z10 late have some sort of modified engines.

AFAIK the upwards engine nozzles are supposed to be WZ-9G which are an upgrade in terms of IR signature and KW output. This is the same engine that was advertised for the Z-10ME.

It seems to be a Z-10 late (engine nozzles pointing upwards)

Still no changes to the Z-10 or Z-19 as of the latest dev server. I think we’re about to hit one year of the Chinese helicopters being stuck with the pre-rework RWRs.

I submitted a dev server thread regarding updating the RWR after nearly a year of the RWR rework release. Hopefully they notice it if they’re working on electrical systems for helis such as the ka-52…

I am not going to buy my helis before they get it done, I mean I have 200k SL RN and I have more than enough vehicles that are worthy of buying than Z9s.
