… below is a short “pre-view”

Cheers, Deino 😀

… and just found after re-examination !!!

Is this a new primary-trainer behind ???

Any idea what’s that …. just a modeller’s dream or an older long-dead project ??? (found at the secret-projects page posted by rousseau) !!

Deino :confused:

New WZ-10 pic shot in Xi’an

Seems that there are some “updates” in the IR suppressors !?

…. and a JH-7A + laser-target-designator-pod ! 😀

Deino

Chinees already bought from Ukraine T-10K (early experimental Su-33) ….

Sorry if I missed anything ! But when did China bought the T-10K from the Ukraine ????

Deino :confused:

Our J-8II friend with its LS-6

Seems to proove that these tests are quite further advanced than we thought … and definitly no PS !!! :diablo:

Besides … it also looks not like a PL-8s or R-73 missile but more like some kind of an instrumentation pod as I suggested …. any other suggestion H or F-version ???

Additional a FT-1 under a JH-7 …

Thanks for posting, Deino

This pic is from the ceremony of the Taihang’s certification. (Or is it inauguration of its production). Unlike the engine featured in Zhuhai, if you look closely at the engine on the back, this one has the accessories on top.

Looks like there are indeed two versions of the engine.

Yes …. and the pedals of the afterburner exhaust are shorter than on the previous released photo – which is for my opinion only a AL-31F – very similar to the pedals on the WS-10 testbed monted on the J-11 !

And of course this curved Miss AL41 –model 😀

Are You sure that this is a AL-41 ???? … it has its gearbox on the bottom … so for what fighter ???
