New J-10 thread II

[Deino]

great news,

by the looks of it , the jets that are covered seems to be FC-1, and the far right jet has smth sticking out of cover, could it be IFR on FC-1?

In the last pic, the bubble canopy looks great too!!

No, these are surely older J-7 as You can notice by the upwards-hinged pitot, the airbrake below the fuselage, etc.

Sorry to drag your hopes down but they aint FC-1, they moreso have siloute of J-7. Im sure the PLAAF are wiser enough to have better hangers for their J-10's if not im shocked....At least those hangers should have doors, meaning they wont get damaged by flying debris in massive storms.

J-10B CG, said to be very similar as the real multi-role upgrade...

I'm curious if anyone can see if the in-flight refueling probe in the photo is real, or PS'ed.

As for the J-10B CG posted above, realistically the aircraft would be carrying more fuel tanks in combat missions.

Here's another one if I read correctly from the forums is from the same base.

The more I look at the J10 the more I begin to thinks it lacks the gracefulness and beauty of Russian and other aircraft of other nations. It certainly doesnt smoke my tyres, from the asthetics.But Im sure it can perform just as well.

Yes, it's real.

As for the drop tanks on the J-10B, maybe CFTs on its back?

Maybe you should take a look at Typhoon...

The probe is real. Its the same as the probe that was tested on Prototype 1005, basically a fixed piece like the J-8D's. Not very elegant I suppose.
