Deino,

For a layman like me, whats the numbering pattern in PLAAF/PLNAF..... How you come to know Brigade/Regiment/unit etc...

 

[Deino]

Divisions can be identified by rather small numbers following the pattern of ABxCx.
If You take then the letter AC - 11 You get the division.

For the Brigades they have a similar ABxCx system albeit with higher numbers: Here You need to take ABC - 611 and get the Brigade's number which is in fact usually the former regiment's number.

don't get it......

For example in below JF17 pic, the number pattern is 13-143.

13 is year of manufacturing.
1 is the block.
43 is the serial number.

What's the point of Type-222? Pretty sure a keen-eyed pilot could see as far as 10km.

The same point Type 204.

For Self-defence when they need to be send in night sortie/mission.
I bet, human eye cannot see any 10km object in the middle of the night

Sorry for off topic

Ähhhm ... that is a Pakistan AF serial ... it has nothing to do with the PLAAF-serial system.

For the JF-17 it is simply the first number (here 13) shows when these aircraft were delivered and the second number (here 143) means 1 = Batch 01 and 43 = 43rd build JF-17.

Otherwise I posted some time ago a longer explanation in the Flanker thread ....

There are many different serials systems ? Luftwaffe by example

Yes, and therefore I don’t understand his question. He was asking for the PLAAF system but showed a PAF fighter.

The Notion of my question was, what basis you come to the conclusion that particular bird of PLAAF/PLNAF belongs to which brigade/regiment/unit & number of type...

Attaching JF17, picture was purely for reference.

I hope now its clear...

J-10s belonging to the aerobatic team and J-10Bs are seen together at an airfield in western China. The J-10s were apparently taking off from there to fly to an airshow in the Middle East.
