Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

Not that im aware of.

@Yamahagi care to chime in?

Current the J-10C would be a good aircraft but it wouldn’t compete for #1 in any role

The J-16 would compete for the best BVR aircraft atm even with Subpar missiles

Compared with the J-11B
It would have a better radar
2 extra missiles
And a slightly higher TWR
J-11B empty TWR 1.514
J-16 empty TWR 1.636

In terms of WT thats it

All this Chinese top tier talk makes me want to grind china… but then i remember that i really don’t like the J-7D XD not cause it’s bad, it’s just really boring to me.

(I pray please Gaijin I want to be able to flare the unbeatable 9B in my Harriers.)

How heavy is j16? If it has a empty ttw of 1.6 that’s better than su-35, which is around 1.5, as it’s 19 tons

It is quite difficult to balance the S-350, because on one side the range is up to 120 km, and on the other side there are 48 missiles at 15 km.

My calculation used 17700kg and 142kn × 2 for the WS-10B

I’m not sure thats how you’re supposed to do it but thats what I got

Where do people get the 17700 kg figure from? I saw it on the suggestion post but idk where it’s sourced

It’s calculate based of of the normal landing weight of the J-16 according to Chinese standards

It’s around 17700-18500 something like that

This is 5he only good explanation I’ve gotten for it.

Apart from that it uses lots of composite materials like the J-11B which is also lighter than its Russian counterparts

I have a question why rafale dont have air to ground mode ;

Out of curiosity what’s special or different on the F-16I compared to the 3 already in the Israeli tree?

more advanced, gets better amraam’s, (ATLEAST) gets a derby-er and a python 4 (which i doubt it will get.), but i want it because it looks awesome and would be awesome for CAS.

Most of them are nothingburger tho.

What makes you think they won’t limit it to 2 launchers?
