yeahhh was hoping for a tvc sino flanker tbh do they get any cm pods?
I’ve been looking for that myself but unfortunately I haven’t found anything like that.
yeah the 5 flares / chaff might be an issue but if gaijan can remove cms they can add cms lol
What is the J16 carrying in this picture? A bomb or a KD88?
@MightyBaozi does this video contain any useful info on double pylons for J-16? Can’t understand it fully cause of language barrier? 单机挂载22枚导弹！歼-16满载状态曝光，超越美国F15EX_哔哩哔哩_bilibili

From what I can understand it’s just “judging” based on the photo that is described as a “J-16 full load”… IIRC that is simply a model and nothing more. Unless we’re shown real life pictures of adaptors put on J-16s I won’t consider this to be enough.

but relying on basic logic - what could possibly be an obstacle in attaching J-10 pylons on J-16, aren’t they use the same pylons for pl-10/12/15?
That is not proof when it comes to War Thunder.

““only””
No nonsense here, made mostly out of composites, light AESA radar (in comparison to russian PESAs), engines maybe also lighter

what exact radar does the j16 use?, whats the radar model?
I’m afraid that is not the closest pylon to the wingtip. When it comes to the screenshot above it’s honestly the first time that I’ve seen that. Due to the way the photo has been taken I’m still not 200% sure it actually is the outer most pylon.
Just compare pylon positioning on the photo with full load with pl-17 and the ones i sent, maybe im coping, but tbh i don’t see any space for any “pl-10 pylons” between Pl-15 and wingtip. I mean second pylon after outer most one is almost on centre of the wing, while on these photos missile is much closer to wingtip nor centre.
Imo It’s not that clear.
I think there is enough wing in this picture for another pl10, if that was the outer pylon it would be closer to the wingtip
Also i still can’t comprehend the fact that J-10C, J-20A/C/S, J-35 could carry double pylons, while J-16 can’t, it’s just doesn’t make sense when your biggest jet with biggest payload only could carry same amount of missiles as the smallest one. I really wish that we gon see photos to prove my point in near future
