Even on my J-11 gameplay i found i never used cannons for A2A atonce
when you run out of R-73s usually you could just RTB or in a bad situation that cannon won’t help you
the only time i used them is for attacking howitzers for stock grinding…
IDK anything about them so … Also they are more like R37 competitor than Meteor and stuff, its diameter is like 300mm+
I had to use it once and once only against an F15E, we both had no missiles, bro brought only AMRAAM and lobbed it all on me missing all 8…
The main reason why I didn’t use cannon is because the old Flanker flight model was bad.
Now after the buff, I find more chances to use it. J-11s fly decently now.

J-16D means EW（电，for 电子战）while J-11D is just a common varient
Considering there’s not SEAD/DEAD in game you wont want a E/A-18E for Air battles…
PL-17 is said to use both radar + IR seeker.
So you need to notch + flares to avoid it if that is the case.
Yes.
J-15T means Tanshe (弹射) which means catapult.

Apparently rumours about PL10 having some sort of radar seeker as well.
Yeah, which would be similar to the relationship between MICA IR and MICA EM.
Or maybe we could see the PL-11AE making its way to other aircraft
Here is what J-15 cockpit is supposed to look like apparently.
What the MFDs are displaying is likely photoshopped though.
it surely can. Modern aircraft and missiles can be easily matched. they are all digital, and just need some software update, you can use it.

I mean they photo shop it in the first place to not let u see what are inside of them.
IDK, for PL12AE and PL11AE we only saw either of them like a month ago.
Yeah, it would not be revealed since it is still classified.
Likely in the next 2-4 years they’ll be making appearances on other aircraft
Yeah, but PL12A only appeared on a drone RN.
There should be no reason why existing aircraft can’t use it, to be fair.
It’s an PL-12 with a supposedly new seeker and new motor that allows it to have more range.
Unless it’s a special use case and only compatible with the drone’s radar or is some weird ARM there shouldn’t be huge hurdles there
