Two great images of six PLAAF J-10Cs loaded with an interesting armament load: Visible are PL-10 & PL-12 AAMSs - even on rarely seen twin-launchers - and KD-88. AGMs.

Have we seen PL-15s on twin launchers before?
Not yet ... and I'm quite sure these are all PL-12s only.
Nope -- check the fin size on the missile on the J-10C in the top left hand corner of your second photo.
That is definitely a PL-15 on that aircraft's two twin BVRAAM pylons.
I.e.: this photo confirms PL-15 can be carried on the twin BVRAAM pylon, which we've had reason to suspect for a long time just because of common sense but also because the J-10CE brochure showed the aircraft carrying PL-15s on the twin BVRAAM pylon as well.
you meant this photo?
Sorry for I don't know aerodynamic, would anybody help explaining how 2 of the aircraft carry AGM on one wing and empty pylon on the other wing? Wouldn't it cause imbalance on both wings? an AGM weight at least a few hundred kilograms.
By your logic whenever a pilot wanted to engage an enemy they will have to shoot two missiles one from each wing??Sorry for I don't know aerodynamic, would anybody help explaining how 2 of the aircraft carry AGM on one wing and empty pylon on the other wing? Wouldn't it cause imbalance on both wings? an AGM weight at least a few hundred kilograms.
