Yes, these missiles do exist:
- CM-502KG (Currently usable in-game by the Z-10, J-10A, JH-7A, JF-17, and J-11B. Faster air-launched variant.)
- CM-704KG (Similar to the Kh-38. Currently usable by the J-10A, JF-17, JH-7A, and J-11B.)

So does anyone have any concrete info about the 10B’s radar?
Many say it’s a PESA radar due to the red antenna
But to my understanding those are just the IFF dipoles
I want to see this and the C-variant with more access to air-to-ground missiles. I want to use it in more of a multi-role. While the guided bombs are nice, it needs something a bit faster with more kick.
Not to mention, missile range isn’t even a factor anymore. We have missiles with several tens of kilometers of range anyway which encompass the map as it is, might as well expand its capability especially since it only carries 2 of them.
Also, I think the “F-pylon” can carry the dual AAM mount but might be for the C-version only, idk.
It will be nice to have a J-10 missile slugger.

The Airframe between the B and C should be identical only difference is the engine and avionics, so theoretical the B should be able to carry the same dual belly pylon.
But the PLAAF rarely flies with full capacity loadouts, so its never been seen on anything except the CE

Hey I came across this during a shallow research into the J-10B’s Radar.
Page 23/24
Page 45
In conclusion:
It appears that the 10B was supposed to have a PESA whilst the development of an AESA was underway. The PESA was not good enough, the AESA ended up being used on the J-10B.

+1 though images are acting up
I presume this to be coming in a months time. Should I start hoarding bonus mod rp?
i would predict theyre gonna add the j10c, not the j10b. j10c is just straight upgrade
and the 10b isnt?

J10C Is an upgrade to the B
Why does that mean they wont add the B.
If I remember right the B was built in very low numbers. More of an active tech demonstrator until the C was fully ready. Though there where test rig Bs with vectored thrust so you might get a B that kicks harder in a dog fight then it should. There are apparently also vectored thrust C’s out there but the whole J-10 series is meant to be a work horse so its rare. Its the same reason why the F-16 does not have vectored thrust both planes have similar philosophy but maybe the Chinese see it a bit different. FYI there was a test rig for the F-16 for thrust vectoring. J-10 might have a different long term strategy.
I am aware

okay, I do hope we see the B though. It would B funny is gaijin jumps from A to C but its not the first
It would be nice to get C since it carries more missiles, same with the J15s compared to J11s, but it will be sad to not get pl15 with it.
PL 15 is too strong for what we currently have in game and maps are too small for it too
Thats why im predicting the B coming before the C
the C can still carry the PL 12A which has more range and a better seeker compared to the regular PL 12
This is true. Unfortunately, Gaijin is not convinced the PL-12A is a real missile.
