J-11BG is based on existing J-11B airframes, maybe after the refurbishment it could possibly have received WS-10B but I’m not sure. I don’t think WS-10A is in production anymore in China or at least in large numbers.
We know that the J-16 is using WS-10B, and since J-11D development was in a similar timeline I think it would be using WS-10B.
Well, I hope then that the next Chinese flanker will be with the WS-10B (it doesn’t matter whether it will be the J-16, J-11D or BG)
(But most of all I want the J-16, of course)
I just want the J-16, it is a true multirole and plus, it can cary more air-to-air missiles than any J-11 except the J-11D.
WS-10B should be slightly lighter than WS-10A (by approx 100ish kg) and have around 14 tons of thrust, 14.5 being the highest reported figure, so J-16 will have a better thrust to weight ratio than J-11B even, weight of J-16 is said to be 17000-18000kg region empty, supposedly it is 17,700kg.
similarly. J-11B is better than nothing, but it looks ridiculous compared to Su-30
If it has that kind of mass, it will be really cool
Did any of the j-11BGs get ws-10d?
Also, does the J-16 get the same amount of countermeasures as the su30 at 98?
Looks like the 96 usually found on most flankers, at least from what i’m seeing from pics we have of the J16’s top. And considering it is based off of the J11BS then yeah it likely shares that in common with it.
What’s wrong with the j11b’s radar? It can’t scan anything in the game. Even the j8f’s radar is better than it
Gaijin happened
I made some bug reports for the j-11bs radar

I have a feeling third one gonna be rejected. “Basic logic” wouldn’t cut for them, especially without some docs/studies/official statements to back it up
ill remove that bit lol
it’s not official. though no technical problem
Maybe in Ace Combat whenever they remember that China exists
We’ll be lucky to even get 10 pl-15s honestly
It should be fine, we have the 10 “large” hard points
And 2 “small” ones for just PL-10s
10+2 isn’t bad at all
Wonder if PLAAF ever tested their double racks on Flankers (probably overkill, but I wouldn’t mind more missiles on later J-16s and J-15s)
They haven’t as far as I know, but they have put them on the j20 which is pretty funny
I mean, it’s not completely out of the question I guess.
Only Su-35 has the ability to carry 12x R-77s but ingame we have it on the Su-30SM, Gaijin has sorta set the precedent for ahistorical loadouts.
