Shenyang J-11, J-16, J-15, History, Performance & Discussion

I hope they do actually get fixed, but it being Gaijin i would also not be surprised if they kept it in bug report hell

Should the WS-10B3 be lighter than the previous model due to the single layer exhaust nozzles?

maybe but i am psure we couldnt prove it if we wanted too (and the other versions ingame i am psure are too heavy already anyway iirc)

On another note, PL-12A’s are currently mounted on legacy PFT12 pylons, but the one time we saw them mounted on a plane irl, they were mounted using the newer PFT15 which the PL-15 also uses. Do you guys think it’d be worthwhile to report this and get the pylons they use visually changed? The J-16 already has nodes for the PFT15, so the change would take very little time.


For those of you wondering, this is what the PFT15 looks like on the J-16 in-game (Some of the pylons are floating but that can be bug reported, and yes, the J-16 has unused double racks but that does not mean anything)

btw, pl-15 and pft-10

Can’t wait to use these in Nuke Thunder.

I assume Gaijin is just gonna copy + paste the JSOWs onto the J-16 (considering how they treat CN stuff).

This is an analogue of Storm Shadow, this missile

even better.

I hope there will be some details about it this year

While it may be a stealth cruise missile, there is no information to assume its any where near a StromShadow analoge, more likely to JASSM.

More likely they’ll just copy what’s available of the CM-98 considering they look pretty much identical.

So Stormshadow but less range and smaller warhead. Probably about it

wasn’t the pl-12 missing like 100 m/s of delta v
the issue was then marked as nab but i’m still coping super hard

maybe idr really but could very well be

Why does the J-16 have the same fuselage drag as the Su-30SM2? I know they are both twin-seat, but wouldn’t the canards add drag?

I am curious if anyone know where haijin sourced that the WS-10B has 137.8kN thrust. I have not found any sources matching that number in installed thrust, the source by janes (which if i am not wrong gaijin does not let you source in a bug report) gets the figure as 135kN, whilst I also see numbers in the ranges up to 144kN. I just want to know where the number gaijin uses comes from.
