That’s not a prediction that’s just the usual plot… Watch them give it old missiles which it can’t even use irl

i mean that’s what it essentially is.
Sure its actually based off the j11bs, but it is essentially modern avionics and engines in a su-30mkk body. kinda like how su-35 is essentially just modern avionics and engines in a su-27 body.
Its what all upgrade programs are
It’s engine and avionics that make all the difference, though there are a little bit of aerodynamic improvements. However, if it’s only given an “ok” radar and shit engines, just like what J10C is getting now, not to mention it has worse in-game FM than J10A, then it’s not worth playing. SM2 is great for getting a MUCH better radar and MUCH better engine, and that’s what makes it much more enjoyable than the original SM.

Soon we’ll get “earliest” “early” “mid-life” “late” “later” and “latest” for modern vehicles

I hope this is properly implemented, 8 pl-15 and at least 8 kd-88, will be a really powerfull fighter, that + the biggest aesa radar in a fighter

I apologize for bothering you, but could you please take a look at the discussion between me and others regarding the maximum ARH missile carrying capacity of the J-16? I believe that the images provided by myself and another friend may demonstrate that the J-16 can achieve ARH missile carriage positions similar to the in-game Su-30SM without the use of dual-rail launchers. Specifically, this would mean that all hardpoints except the wingtips are capable of carrying ARH missiles, for a total of up to 10 missiles.
If possible, I would like to request a revision to the suggestion regarding the J-16’s air-to-air missile loadout capacity.
For specific information regarding the pylon I highlighted in the red box, please refer to the additional details provided by this friend. @NCC105
Although the image details are not perfectly clear, I am almost certain that it is one of the two shown in the images below.

The rail does seem to be the one usually used for these ARH missiles and it does sit at the outer most pylon (not counting the wingtip one) since the 八一 insignia gives it’s position out perfectly… It could very well mean that those two positions can be used for ARH.

great work
in your opinion will it be enough of proof for the gaijin lords? because please lord it would be so good if it could also use those for fox 3 and not just fox 2
4 pl-10 are overkill, almost no situation where you need that many
I wouldn’t consider it to be good enough, no. When it comes to this stuff we need more than just pictures as things can be easily manipulated. Surely it is a good start if compared with any more info.

I think it’s enough, like I explained in original post. this is PFT-15 pylon, “t” for eject here, so only arh missile, PL-10 can’t fit in.

I believe you, it is definitely a pilon for ARH, which makes sense; but unfortunately gaijin only accepts official and reliable documents to make changes, which makes people filter classified documents, only to ignore that data because it is classified.
