same overall type but very different in role/design
Is there a western analogue to the pl-10?
ASRAAM, AIM-9X, IRIS-T, MICA-IR all fill similar/same role
the problem with the kh29 is the distance for a target lock, around 6km, it is not really useful at top tier, specially with the new aa
No it’s not. What game are you playing? The KH-29 has no issues locking >12km
at moving tanks??
Yeah no issues with locking, tracking is a different story
that’s what i meant my bad, it works great against stationary aa though, specially with how hard to intercept it sometimes is
pl-10 is literally looks like iris-t
Looks more like a mica ir strakes and tail, seeker is more IRIS-T like

Why don’t they add the extra wing pylon from the j16/15 to the j-11. Clearly the wing is capable of it as seen on su30s,su35,j15, etc
Issue is their development are separate, j15 directly from T-10K3, and J11B from Su27SK. They have different wing load and wing internal structure, since Su33 also needs to fold the wings as well as hang some AShMs.
Su-33 can’t use AShMs
J15s can. Su33s also can, just smaller ones, otherwise what is the point of the N001 upgrade?
No. Moskit and Onyx were not integrated.
Cuz J-15 use their AShM and their radar iirc?
Weren’t KH31s intergrated?
AFAIK - no.
but KH-41 is planned I remember, but the project ended
after all, all the SU-33s in service are basically prototypes, even no RWR(some installed later).
