The J-10A fighter jet initially used Russian Al-31FN and AL-31FN Series 3 engines, with maximum thrust of 127kN and 137kN, respectively, and a thrust to weight ratio of 7.87.
The F-16V variant is equipped with the F110-GE-132 engine, which boasts a maximum thrust of 144 kN and a thrust-to-weight ratio of 7.8.
After the update of the J10A test server, the thrust to weight ratio only showed a pitiful value of less than 4.
This is ridiculous! The acceleration is not as good as the F4C, and the maximum speed is not as good as the MiG-21SMT.
The performance of a light fighter jet paired with a high thrust aircraft engine is surprisingly inferior to that of a high thrust twin engine heavy fighter jet, and even an outdated single engine medium thrust fighter jet… Are you kidding me?
Even early versions of the J10 fighter jet had maneuverability at the level of the F16C. It should be noted that China and Pakistan have used the J10 and F16 for adversarial maneuvers.
Pakistani pilots have recognized that the acceleration performance of the J10 is not inferior to that of the F16, and the J10’s instantaneous disk performance gives it an overwhelming advantage over the F16 in the first 30 seconds of entering dogfighting.
Only when the dogfighting time is too long and lose high speed , the F16 can deal with the J10.
Due to the use of the same Russian high thrust aircraft engine as the Su-27, the aircraft’s performance is definitely not inferior to that of the F16C.
I agree with you, the thrust-to-weight ratio of the AL-31FN is no less than that of the yak141, but the J10 in the game has a huge air resistance and a pathetic thrust-to-weight ratio that does not exist, which is ridiculous!
Do you have any trustable sources about that?
Part of the news reports, as well as the Pakistani military publicly exhibiting and releasing data on the J-10 CE
Paper from the High Speed Institute of China Aerodynamics Research and Development Center titled “Analysis of Tail Support Rod Interference in High Speed High Attack Angle Tests”
This is the drag coefficient curve of the J-10 standard aerodynamic model
J-10CE doesn’t really help but your second set of data seems promising.
The thrust is 12500kgf for the FN, which is 122.5KN, it will be lower installed. Giving it a thrust to weight uninstalled of 8.08.
The main problem isn’t the engine but the drag.

Just be like what this video showed, J10A’s acceleration performance is pretty bad after reaching 1 Mach, even hard to reach 1400 km/h, which is ridiculous for a jet with high power engine.
While you either copying and pasting this or typing it out is great and all. This isn’t citing a source and nothing can change about the aircraft without doing so.
The relevant news is too old to find. There are still some articles with relevant records left on NetEase News website
So you just hand jammed some manifesto from memory what you have read.

This is early flight data recorded using an optical oscilloscope, where the altitude and speed of the aircraft were manually measured and calculated by members of the research team.
So what about you?You choosen a fake sources to make J10A update!What hell is this？

You can choose for yourself,you say ok!
We submitted similar literature, but you defined it as false information.
What’s ridiculous is that you guys used to talk about it yourselves！
What’s even more ridiculous is that you deliberately chose the negative part and deliberately ignored the records of J10A’s advantages in the literature.

Moreover, the video chosen by your developers clearly states that J10A achieved the air resistance shown in the game only after diving from an altitude of 12000 meters to 1000 meters and then leveling off at a low altitude speed of 1453 km/h.
Please note that this only occurs after reaching the maximum speed of diving from high altitude to low altitude. It is definitely not a flat flight at sea level, nor is it an acceleration from 0 to supersonic range.
I hope you can take this matter seriously.
So far, Gaijin’s attitude has been a shocking double standard of arrogance.
Furthermore, you want to make money but also engage in racial discrimination.
We have spent a lot of time and money on you, and we love Warthunder . (Those cheaters don’t count, they’re not humans, they’re dogs)
I personally even bought over a dozen vehicle gift packages.Are you treating your supporters like this?
If you don’t want to be a Chinese vehicle, you can delete it.
If you don’t want Chinese players to exist, you can speak it out clearly. Don’t hold back.
We can leave and we will never come back again,and We will not recharge any more money for Warthunder or Gaijin.
Are you thinking I am the one responsible for the current implementation of the J-10A?
I just a player who told you what you would need to do in order to get Gaijin to make a change. It is not my fault you don’t actually look for creditable sources and research to make a case.
Okay, but you must understand that Gaijin is quite arrogant and even deliberately engaging in racial discrimination in this matter.
Those developers are also using false information to create Chinese vehicles, and even do not allow normal players to have objections to this!
Think about this question carefully: If J10A really had the kind of shit Gaijin did, then in the real world, China and the United States would have gone to war long ago.
After all, the US military now acknowledges that air combat in the Asia Pacific region may not necessarily defeat the Chinese Air Force.
If we weaken China’s top jet fighters, then please also weaken American fighters, otherwise it would be insulting to the United States.
Theyre already weaken) by acceleration, F-15C at least, but “close enough”
The J10A in-game performance needs to be improved!
