China Flanker thread

I am not talking about that one. I am talking about the structures near the engine intake. In the MKK, the structures are not there as the RWRs are moved into the wings.

No way of knowing if the RWR inside the bladed structures are the same on the J-11B as they are on the Su-27SK. The RWR used on the J-10 looks like it could fit inside too.

Really dumb of me ...you were talking about the engine intake.....


But can you exactly point the structures(or just circle em on J-11B picture).. i am still not sure (call me slow )

Thanks

Its not clear in this pic because someone pasted their digital logos over the pic right over the area. But if you need to know, it is on the upper right corner of the fourth character. In other pictures of this plane it is much clearer. This is the fin like structure you see on the side of the engine intake. You can see it with every Su-27SK/UBK and J-11.

There's report of further development of J-11B- a J-11C variant.
J-11B uses locally design avionic,except the engine AL-31F,But J-11C further development of J-11B,uses all Chinese avionic and engine.
Speaking of stealth, I recall a chinese aviation magazine report that russia is offering improve SU-27Sk-SKm version with one meter RCS. down from the original 5 meter RCS.

Could be a J-11B with WS-10A engines

This may be I just said may be the J-11B with WS-10A engines. I dnt know but the engines at the back dnt seem to be the AL-31F. Take a careful look at the engine. If it's not that then delete the post.

 

[tphuang]

wow, I just found a bunch of newly posted J-11B pictures. Just a note, can someone with a better eye determine whether or not the last picture shows J-11B using WS-10A engines?

 

[mehdi]

Thanks mod anyway the J-11 pics seem to pe pouring out of nowhere !!! Is there any competition against the J-10?

 

[crobato]

The true test for the J-11B is to against the J-10s in mock exercises under varied conditions. That's the obvious thing for the PLAAF to do.

Regardless, one also has to see that the J-11B has one form of captive market sewn up, and that is the upgrade of the existing J-11 and Su-27 planes. There is no need to change the engines on these planes however, so at least you can save on the cost and allot the quota of WS-10A to newly build J-11s or J-10s. But you can upgrade the avionics and radars on the old planes to make them competitive.
