more like totally designed form nothing than changed, since section layout is also totally changed, left only 203mm diameter.
is it? I remember it’s a customized air cooling radar, for modifying old planes like J-11B, while J-16 is designed for liquid cooling radar with much better performance
In the early years, there was speculation about replacing it with an air‑cooled AESA, but considering that whether newly built or retrofitted from older airframes, the J-11BG has been fitted with the new WS-10B (2 or 3, depending on the batch), the necessary power supply and cooling systems for the radar have in fact been added as part of the upgrade.
Well that is theseus paradox, if it was based off the original missile.
the cooling system isn’t just part of the engine. also need space in front cabin, for a plane designed for mechanic radar, it’s hard to find space for the cooling devices and pipes, so it chose air cooling radar to reduce the modifications required, with disadvantage of limited max power and working time
The conversion isn’t as difficult as you might think. The Batch 08 J-11BGs were all newly built, giving them ample opportunity to redesign the nose space and then directly apply the results to retrofitting the earlier J-11Bs.Additionally, the J-16 did undergo a radar replacement in the early stages of its service life, and the number of units involved matches the current quantity of J-11BGs.
so, if combined, I guess it should be like, early J-16 used air cooling radar for some reason, maybe like J-10B’s PESA’s condition, problem quickly solved so they removed the radar and put them on J-11BG
yall acting like they wont just give it KLJ-10A and call it a day. If you think its the wrong radar bug report it :)
in current game, no matter gaijin name it what or used what model, won’t cause much problem, since it won’t change the fact that it’s a fixed radar and the range is far than enough until we get 5th gen fighter.
so it’s just normal discuss about interesting facts and knowledge. it’s not always concerning the game here
true i am saying this for the future tho.
That’s impossible. They are using a liquid-cooled fixed-array AESA from the No.607 Research Institute.
my source is very convinced about J-11BG using air cooling radar. then maybe they are not so related, and the number match is just coincidence
My source straight up states where the radar came from, and the numbers I later tracked down based on J‑16 batches.
My fix to the J15T countermeasure situation:
That one image with the chinese radars mentioned something about “crawling feature” on the j16 which is the closest i can find to a gimballed phased array radar on the j16
PL11A has already added propellant on the basis of AIM-7,In addition, the pl11AE corresponds to customers who only require end infrared guidance, so the tail and wings have been changed. In fact, the technology still inherits pl11A, because Chinese designs can be used interchangeably on the same missile Otherwise, why isn’t it called SD11 or PL11E? In fact, China’s missiles are indeed named PL XX, with A being an improved version with significant enhancements, and E being an export versio.What I want to express is that pl12A does not perform much worse than pl12AE, but now only GPS has been added. j15T performed very poorly in 14.7 due to various reasons
I actually thought only Chinese players cared about this stuff, haha. But you’re right—this thing is a total “Frankenstein,” it’s completely fake. From a real-world logical perspective, this aircraft’s radar is far more likely to be the same as the J-16’s. However, Gaijin chose the small-aperture radar from the J-10C, and that’s really ridiculous.
I submitted it, and almost a week has passed. Gaijin hasn’t given me any feedback at all.
what are the specifications and parameters of J-15T ECM? As in, when it is implemented into the game, how will it perform?
We dont know :)
lmfao that’s the type of question a spy would ask
