It has now been demonstrated through multiple lines of evidence that the J-10C is capable of carrying the PL-5DE infrared-guided missile. Implementing this missile in the game should not be difficult, as it uses the same airframe as the PL-5E2, which has already existed in the game for a long time. The only difference between the PL-5DE and the PL-5E2 lies in the performance of their seekers. Considering War Thunder’s gameplay, the PL-5DE could be given the “Simple Memory” countermeasure resistance mechanism, the same one used by the AIM-9M, to distinguish it from the PL-5E2.
