Made another report for missing weapons, this time about the C-701/YJ-7 as it has a TV guided variant that would be beneficial to top tier china rn

I know but it’s 11.7 and jh-7A 11.7 too and I have a video of the su-25 has a thermal pod in the craft itself and can kill 4 tanks from the airfield

Assuming an JH-7 ADV:
As is well known, the JH-7A can carry ARH missiles. If there are no J-11B and J-10, JH-7A will be responsible for air defense tasks…

This is already denied by gaijin. They said its not clear whether its a ARH missile or a Anti radiation missile.

This is just their sophistry, the ability of JL-10A radar to use ARH missiles is beyond doubt.
Various ASM themselves require TWS guidance to start seeker to find targets during the final phase, not to mention that LD10 and SD10 themselves are variants of the same thing, the hanger is also the same LDF105.

总结

An old pylon design reveals the original name of PL12: AMRAAM-10, while also revealing the use of PL9 series in J10.
Despite being obscured by wing, we can still know pylon full name LDF105.

This aircraft is now placed at the entrance of the headquarters of AVIC.


LD10

In other words, there is no hardware limitations for launch ARH missile. Just because Gaijin’s consideration of game balance.
I hope that one day when we receive the JH-7A2 for launching ultra long range missiles and anti radiation missiles, we can receive JH-7A2’s own PL-12 or another ARH missiles at the same time.

I’m making a bug report on the Chinese LS-6 GPS bombs. I found photos showing that the JH7A, J8F and the JF 17 used their bombs, but I couldn’t find any photos for the J10

JH-7A auxiliary air intakes error

The auxiliary air intakes of other aircraft is open, only the JH-7A’s auxiliary air intakes is closed, which needs to be fixed.

冲浪时候偶然发现了一张很奇怪的图
jh-7_FBC1_1
有翼刀,是老飞豹,这翼尖的弹看弹翼感觉有点像PL-8?从PL-5开始到PL-9前弹翼都是双三角翼,只有PL-8是三角翼。但这前面弹头又和PL-5一样收细。不太好判断

PL-5B

e.确实是PL-5,但是PL-5B不是双三角翼吗?还是说游戏内模型做错了?

No, it’s built on the basis and knowledge of AIM-9D 20年的坚守——讲讲中国霹雳-5乙空空导弹的研制过程(上) -6parkbbs.com
So yes, the 3d model is incorrect

Would that not also make the stupid sun too attractive in game, as currently the sun will take the lock by simply being near the FOV of missile. Here it said 17degrees though

it’s already 17 degrees in the files
