Nice! 😎

PS:

Can those LVEVCONs move deferentially? What would happen if they do?

…..But there is no country in the world that could invade China and win…..

Only, in a non-nuclear situation…

…..

And an aircraft carrier wouldn’t protect China anyway.

Well that is true…. Aircraft carriers are for power projection. Influence/Interests of the PRC is growing throughout the world, and they would want to protect those interests if they comes under threats in the future. Reminds me of another country of the present 😀

…China already has armed forces that can protect the country from attack. Given that China is a strategic competitor (and in some cases, a threat) to a number of countries, it is legitimate for those countries to consider what China is going to do with them.

Forgive me, but are you saying the PRC can protect itself from an attack from any country including the USA? :confused: :confused: :confused:

So, basically, pretty much ALL of the flankers chinese have in service are wired for missiles with active radar guidance? We’re talking over 300 planes here. And with over 200 j10 and some 100 j8f that gives a sizable force of relatively potent planes. Never thought of that before…

Not all.

Su-30MKK/MK2 (76 MKK, 24 MK2) : R-77 compatible
Su-27UBK (3rd batch, 28 planes) : R-77 compatible
J-11B/BS/BH/BSH : PL-12 compatible

Su-27SK, batch 1 & 2 of the Su-27UBK cannot use the R-77. There is a question mark over the J-11/11A. It not clear whether they can use the R-77.

If you don’t like streaming here is a direct link. J-10B take-off was impressive.

J-20, J-10B, FC-1 all in one package :D. Transparency PLAAF style? :confused::p

PS:

Was bored, so attached some J-8F/G, Su-30MKK, Su-27UBK images

emile,

something like the images below? :confused: These are some stuff I collected over the past 10 years. 1st image seems to be the closest I guess, others 3 are quite old and have those 90-degree angles, ventral fins…

Somebody at CDF posted some stuff saying its mixture of the T-50 + F-22 + F-35? Any comments

Has ASIG given the T50/PAK FA a reporting name yet ???

They allocated Firkin to the Su-47 and Flatpack to the MFI (great joke that!!) even though neither entered service and the latter hardly flew at all.

Surely it’s time for a reporting name now ???

I can suggest a few…..

Future ?? Fantom ?? Falcon ?? Feral ?? Firebird ?? Forceful ?? Frightful ??

Remember the rules….

1. Must begin with letter ‘F’
2. Must have two syllables only
3. Must not be confused with any other word

Ken

Fantom, Falcon, Feral sound nice…

So they can’t conflict with these – Link? Let me see…

How about…

Flayer, Firedance, Flashdance
Flirter (considering her good looks especially from behind 😉 :D)

Essentially, Fire>>something<<, Fox>>something<<, Flat>>something<<

Here are some bits :

Super-7 << Saber II << F-7M
FC-1/JF-17 << MiG-33 + Original Super-7

After 1989 the Super-7 project was cancelled. Since 1995 CAC has worked with MiG on a single engined fighter (Project 33 : Link-1, Link-2, Link-3, Link-4). 1999 PRC and Pakistan started to joint develop the FC-1 (Pakistan called it Super-7 later changed to JF-17).

If you look carefully at the JF-17, the intake arrangement is like the Super-7 but the rest of it is a lot like the MiG project especially this one.

Regarding the history of the FC-1/JF-17, shiphone had this interesting post about a year ago – Link

Edit: Link-1, Link-2

Maybe just pass through not a real demonstration. It is too early to do high maneuver.

This was back in June, 2010 – Link
