There is an image of the plane using ws10b.
Why is it not accepted that the fighter jet uses the WS10B?
There is an image, there is a statement on the manufacturer’s website, the export version uses the engine, the display fighters from the Zhuhai and Paris air shows use the engine.
Everything corroborates and indicates that the fighter jet uses the engine, but why don’t you accept it?
Why isn’t this same rigor applied to other vehicles from other nations, such as Russian vehicles, for example?
You talk about primary sources, but maintenance manuals or manufacturer’s manuals are impossible and illegal to obtain. Let’s work with reality and within the law. Sometimes the behavior of moderators and some developers encourages the leaking of sensitive information.
That’s different as one plane was coming with 229s while the other one wasn’t. There is no other j10c thats getting a different engine, so I don’t see anything wrong with this. Ofc I would rather have it with the ws10b, I’m not saying al31fp serie 3 is better. But the j-10c is good enough for a top tier so imo it’s fine without its best engine
Is it good enough to be ranked higher than the Gripen E?
Or near the EF with AESA, or near SM2? I don’t think so.
And it’s always the same old story whenever a Chinese vehicle is added, ever since the J11A, it’s always the same thing.
Gaijin stated that replacing the WS-10B engine would also require changing the model. As early as the initial developer livestream, they mentioned that the engine might be replaced, but in the end, it’s clear that the J-10C still uses the AL-31FN. During the development server period, Gaijin was able to complete the Su-30SM2 without any leaks and update the JAS 39E from its white model state within a single day. So, why couldn’t they prepare the WS-10B model in advance?
This is the lamest excuse that exists.
If they don’t have the model ready yet, they could just change the thrust values to match the WS10B and then change the model; performance is much more important than the 3D model.
This is just an excuse from Gaijin for not implementing the engine as it should be.
In terms of air-to-ground payloads, Gaijin has long completed the models for the C-704 series of missiles, and the KD-88 series models were also finished during the development server period. However, they show no intention of adding these completed assets into the game, offering only a pitifully small amount of IR LS-6 (250 kg).
