J-10 Thread IV

[Julio Ramos]

2 years ago J-10 B was testing this missile. Which missile is this then ?

Even J-20 was carrying both winged and wingless missiles

A wingless missile would rely exclusively in a thrust vectoring solution in order to manouver and even those that had this solution has wings.
I think that those missiles were not thought to be launched but to test integration and data link.

That is correct. All air-to-air missiles use thrust vectoring for maneuvering and there is no such thing as a wingless/fin-less AAM since fins are needed for aerodynamic stability.

Plus that "wingless" missing is just missing its wings due to them not being attached. There are obvious holes where the fins are normally attached.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Two Chinese fighter jets intercepted a U.S. Navy surveillance plane over the East China Sea at the weekend, with one jet coming within about 300 feet (91 meters) of the American aircraft, U.S. officials said on Monday.

The officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said initial reports showed one of the Chinese J-10 aircraft came close to the U.S. EP-3 plane on Sunday, causing the American aircraft to change direction.

One of the officials said the Chinese jet was armed and that the interception happened 80 nautical miles (148 km) from the Chinese city of Qingdao.

The Pentagon said that the encounter between the aircraft was unsafe, but added that the vast majority of interactions were safe.

Incidents such as Sunday's intercept are relatively common.

In May, two Chinese SU-30 aircraft intercepted a U.S. aircraft designed to detect radiation while it was flying in international air space over the East China Sea.

China is deeply suspicious of any U.S. military activity around its coastline.

In 2001, an intercept of a U.S. spy plane by a Chinese fighter jet resulted in a collision that killed the Chinese pilot and forced the American plane to make an emergency landing at a base on Hainan.

The 24 U.S. air crew members were held for 11 days until Washington apologized for the incident. That encounter soured U.S.-Chinese relations in the early days of President George W. Bush's first term on office.

China urges U.S. to stop dangerous military acts

BEIJING, July 25 (Xinhua) -- China on Tuesday urged the United States to stop "unsafe, unprofessional, unfriendly" actions after a close encounter between Chinese and U.S. military planes over the East China Sea.

A U.S. reconnaissance plane flew over the East China Sea on July 23, and the Chinese pilots' actions were legal, necessary and professional, said Ren Guoqiang, spokesperson for China's Ministry of National Defense.

"The close-in reconnaissance of the U.S. aircraft threatened China's national security, damaged the military safety between two countries and put the pilots of both countries in danger. This is a source of danger for China-U.S. military safety," Ren said.

Ren stressed that the United States should immediately stop these kinds of dangerous military actions, calling them unsafe, unprofessional and unfriendly.

The Unites States should take positive action for the development between two countries' armies, Ren said.

The United States claimed on July 24 that two Chinese J-10 fighters unsafely intercepted a U.S. EP-3 reconnaissance aircraft, with the closest distance between the two countries' jets just 91 meters.

Wondering what the reaction of pentagon and world media if Chinese spy plane sailed close to (150 kms) let say Manhattan or San Francisco?

Sometimes I have the feeling for the US it is already a dangerous behaviour if a Chinese plane is only within the same air.

Hehe...If one observes in the news comment sections or blog sections in the vastness of the World Wide Web, the very mention of the word 'China' draws in a lot of Americans. When the very word 'CHINA' is mentioned, most Americans simply lose their minds and any sort of objectiveness flies out the window, its like they must explode and spew some venom or hatred against China, or else their very lives may end. It's quite funny to observe the phenomenon of Sinophobia amongst the Americans, and i'm sure that phobia permeates into all aspects of present day american society from civil society, to its military and to its government.
