Inaccuracies of the J-11B In-Game

TPS_Hydra · October 10, 2025, 12:31pm

The J-11B as presented in-game has a plethora of inaccuracies which have been bug reported but overlooked and/or ignored entirely. This is simply because China isn’t a priority nation for Gaijin, fixed bugs are usually centred around Germany, the USSR (Russia), and the U.S. This is evident from the bug reports showcasing that most top tier Chinese MBTs lack their respective spall liners, whilst this is a extremely critical thing in-game, we’re yet to receive it for ANY of said MBTs.

I’ve made this topic to point out the still pending bug reports which still plague the J-11B and would wish you, the reader, to use this as a platform to post any other inaccuracies of the vehicle in-game, whether that be visual or performance wise.

Pending Bug Reports

J-11B wing piece fragment floating when one of the wings get destroyed - minor
Radar model of the J-11B is not complete/mismodelled - moderate
J-11B using Russian MFD displays - minor
J-11B dual pylons mismatching - moderate/significant
J-11B incorrect nosecone model - moderate/significant
PL-8Bs on the J-11B lacking lead indicator when locking with radar - significant
HUD of J-11B STILL missing tint (key visual attribute of the J-11B) - moderate
HUD of J-11B lacking visual CCRP/CCIP - moderate (major in simulator)
Wrong stick colour in cockpit - minor
PL-8B misaligned on J-11B (how on earth did they even manage to do this lmao) - moderate
J-11B using the wrong pylons for PL-12s - moderate/significant

When vehicles become neglected they tend to stack up on bugs/inaccuracies, the J-11B is a prime example of this

Worst issue imo is the irst, copy paste of the mig-29 irst instead of the j-11/su27 irst for god knows what reason

bumped the reports, lets see if they go anywhere.

It’s a placeholder radar while they get more information about the real radar, and it’s the strongest placeholder radar they’ve put on any aircraft.

Just a note - your screenshot is offset, the jet is tilted ever so slightly (unless one wing is, somehow, longer than another)

Overall they just don’t care about most of the game, they only fix specific stuff that they like or that bring lots of money. I realized that when I found out the Vautour IIN literally lacks half of its elevator, and it’s been the case for 3 years yet no fix.

Vautour N has both of its elevators.
The bug you mentioned was fixed years ago.

Edit: Unless you’re talking about a non-important visual issue, the flight model is all that matters:

AydanL44100 · October 10, 2025, 4:52pm

Was it? Not so long ago I’ve had several people say it wasn’t fixed. Also the bug report is still up

That isn’t my image but a image taken from one of the bug reports I’ve listed correlating with the issue described above, the person who took the photo seemed to take the photo on a angle but didn’t correct for this when drawing the lines. The image itself however is still right about one of the PL-8Bs being too far behind, whether other things are incorrectly placed, I’m not sure.

This image summarizes it well

I added an edit, and tested every Vautour N to make sure their low speed sustained speed and degrees per second were the same.
They are.

So yeah, unless it’s a non-issue visual bug you’re speaking on… For now, all the Vautours fly the same.
And both halves of the elevators function visually.

I’ll assume you’re right then, but I still wonder why the report is still up… check it out
