Since the F18 and OSA have been rejected for this patch, will the J10/J10A be included? I think china could do with it right now, and it does fit in the game perfectly.
there wasnt any confirmation that the leaklist was right. don’t count it as truth, even if some vehicles predicted are coming. Broken clocks are still correct twice a day

It could happen, but it’s anyone’s guess.
Probably.

I mean the leaker said f-18 might be delayed so there’s that , although still take the leaks with a grain of salt . But i really need j-10 and hopefully jf-17 squadron vehicle it would help out my grind so much

OSA was only rejected for Russia, may still come for Italy/Germany.

F-18 is vastly superior to all J-10s produced.

I mean do you really trust a Chinese knockoff Eurofighter to be able to take on a hornet? China wasn’t quite the behemoth it is today back in 1998 when the thing first flew, they had only just taken Hong Kong so the 25% economy boost would not have hit yet so the funding for development would not be as crazy high as what there was for the J20.
I mean look at it, its the child of an ungodly orgy of typhoons, gripens and a droplet of Kfir somewhere in it too
It isn’t a knockoff Eurofighter, you could’ve at least pointed towards the LAVI since it has connections with it.
Also your opinion in terms of looks, and smearing out of personal preference has nothing to do with the current thread. Anyhow the J-10 and the Thai Gripens constantly train with each other, if the J-10 was to be this utter mess you’re talking about i wouldn’t see Thailand risking its ties to exercise with China.
This is from this year’s falcon strike:

Keep thinking J-10A can face Typhoon, F-15C, F-18C, J-16, or Rafale on equal footing and somehow win.
Oh, and interesting that one of you had to gaslight instead of providing a response.
J-10 is not J-16.
You stated that every J-10 would be trash against an F-18 (without stating which F-18 too), not sure where the J-10A is comparable to the other listen aircraft came, surely not from me.

The J10C would be the equivalent at that point though, which absolutely can

He forgot to include C, but we all knew what he meant.
Not considering that comparing the J-10 to the F-18 is basically useless, two completely different aircraft with completely different roles.

That we agree on, and is my initial statement.
Alvis he asked if the J-10A is coming, he didn’t ask for a comparison between the two. The F-18 got denied by Smin’s quotes on the forums, so he’s asking if it might be the case for the J-10A too.
near enough everything in the PLA arsenal is a lookalike or Strategic Transfer of Equipment to Alternate Locations (STEAL) directly from Western military industries or bought from the Russians. I’d say my description has merit from China’s reputation. As for the LAVI it is not a super well-known plane as it got smothered out of development by the F16 and Fa18s export offers and other politics.
As for Thailand they have Burma next door and they arent known for stability so being a pal with china is certainly in their defense interests
China had a devastatingly bad situation in terms of technology (ANY kind of tech, i study Chinese and i can give you a couple of examples) so they had to catch up somehow. Nowadays the J-10C is considered a 4.5 gen jet, J-16 one of (if not the best) flankers in the world and other stuff that i won’t bother talking about. And about stealing, China stole documents from the world’s number 1 in terms of 5th gen technology. I consider that a plus rather than a negative, learning from the best at the time.
Sadly its easy to just say “they copied” without knowing in what kind of situation they were 20 years ago. All pretty easy to miss since in most countries contemporary history is not a thing until university.
Since J-10s are inferior to f-18 which is on par with f15, i would suggest give J10 4 pl12 and two pl8 and put it at 13.0
