J-10 Thread IV

[Jeff Head]

Can anyone identify whether the planes in the image are J-10As or J-10Bs?

Looks like there is a little "notch" there where the fuselage come together with the air intake.

This tells me that they are not Bravos because the intakes for the Bs fare smoothly into the fuselage where the Alpha aircraft intakes set off of the fuselage on the underside.

So JFf-17s already engaged what I assumed to be J-10s, J-11s, and J-7s from China in the Shaheen exercise? I wonder how that went.

Then it must have been a previous exercise. There are photos of Chinese flankers in Pakistan.

Hmmm ... again a new - so far not identified - J-10AS with the serial 3-11 ...

But do we really have NO confirmation of the first operational J-10B regiment ??

Why they continue to produce A version two-seaters ? Wouldn't it be cheaper to completely switch to B version ?

I just realized that we've never actually seen a two-seater J-10B.
