Re: PLAAF Pictures Thread 4
Well that's not the WZ-2000 that's for sure, unless they've suddenly decided to go twin-boom with a pusher propeller. Might be a Chinese MALE UAV along the lines of the IAI Heron fullfilling a similar role to the Predator, but it's no jet high altitude long endurance type.
The fact that website claims it's WZ-2000 makes me chuckle though, have they not looked at the lefthand side of the pic????
:nana:

lol. :rofl:
This is their description:
I doubt that either this or the WZ-2000 are truly stealthy, but they clearly incorporate RCS reduction design just as the Predator and Global Hawk do.
This design is interesting though. It's retractable landing gear suggest that it is quite large; at least as big as the IAI Heron. It's engine also appears to have two air intakes, one above and one below, implying relatively high altitude operating. The swept wings would also increase the stalling/loiter speed relative to other UAVs which is not a good thing, although they would increase transit speed which is. :coffee:
I tend to trust Huitong on these little things

Now look again at the picture, it clearly has a pusher propeller and twin boom arrangement:

Re: PLAAF Pictures Thread 4
Go on, admit I was right (smug grin). Planeman; one, Huitong; nil.
BTW, Interesting tail - is stealthy (if you read what I just wrote before my second look, ignore it).
Here's a two minute artist's impression of the layout:
And it comes with satellite datalink:

J-10 Cockpit !
I can guarantee no one has seen this before. I get it from a korean military forum.
Some korean extremists call Chinese As "ZINA" which means "ZHI NA" in chinese language.
but anyway, this is rare picture, finally We got to see how J-10's cockpit looks.
it's much better than i've expected. All together 5 LCD monitors. People say the monitors are made by TCL. wow!
u guys gotta give me a credit for this.
