J-10 Thread IV

Hmm....for this picture of the single seat, the V-shape support seems to be missing, which is how I remember it. (I can't find one with a better angle). Could it be the earlier version of single seat J-10 is without the V-shape support?

I don't have access to my photo library to check, but I think that "v" shaped support has always been there. You just cannot see it in that picture because of the angle the plane is at.

That V joint would have been the primary designed structural support for the intake, but evidently proved insufficient, so they added to supports.
