Max launch range 70kg lol
PL-12(early)=SD-10A, PL-12(late)=PL-12AE. The SD-10 is not in service.

a good scheme
The J-16’s radar advantage is largely irrelevant in War Thunder. On a 128km x 128km map, there’s simply no practical value in having a radar with a 400+ km detection range against a 1m² RCS target (which reflects the latest J-16 batch’s radar performance. It’s known that the J-16 has undergone at least three radar upgrades, with the earliest batches featuring a 200km detection range against 1m² RCS). PS: The N035 radar is poorly regarded within the PLAAF—a well-known aggressor squadron in the Southern Theater Command has failed to win any internal “Golden Helmet” exercises since re-equipping with the Su-35, even repeatedly losing BVR engagements against J-10Cs (powered by AL-31FN engines).

yes,so f22,j20 is useless in the game
Yeah thats pretty much what im getting at. In terms of WT the J-16 is most likely going to be second to the SU-35 but real lift is a completely different thing
I mean the Chinese su35 only has rvv sd… missile with only half the range of pl15 and around same range of pl12. Not surprising it loses in bvr.
Plus su35 has crazy rcs even though it has rcs coatings
Which is a shame, but once again, we get both so it’s a non-issue

Gaijin will likely give it R-77-1s in the interest of balance, and if not face another riot from the chinese community I imagime

Rvv sd is r771
The russians only ever provided the PLAAF with basic R-77s no?
They bought it with su35 no? I doubt they got another batch of rvv ae for their su35
That’s not the issue, as the aggressor squadron operates under special rules allowing them to adjust AAM range parameters to compensate for the RVV-SD’s limitations. The reality is, even against the J-10C’s ECM, the N035 radar remains virtually unusable.

My info is likely outdated but either way, it should come with R-77-1s for the sake of balance and decency
No. The PLAAF bought RVV-SD.
Compared with R77

Alright good to know, less of an opportunity for gaijin to attempt another J-11A situation again
R771 and rvv sd is same thing just one is export
R771 is modeled of rvv sd
I’m aware, my concern was whether the PLAAF operated R-77s or R-77-1s, and that has been answered already
