And now 52 & 53 too .... but still no confirmed 5-digit serial of an operational regiment.
I think we might be able to see an operational squadron be the end of this year. The fact around 50-60 J-10Bs have already been manufactured, so somehow the PLAAF got to make them operational, so sold to Pakistan (which is unlikely).
Not really ... usually a regiment consists of 24-28 aircraft (20-24 single seater + 4 twin-seater ... recently often a few more trainers) !
Maybe they merged them with the J-10A regiments?
siegecrossbow hello, no I really do not know but you better keep confidential from my point of view; and as you know we are constantly under surveillance by the British since several years ago, they manage to get into our forums and other actions that are irrelevant to not lose track of it.
As usual whenever we have photo's coming out of China. How do we know its not photoshopped ?
The PLAAF seems to be happy with the J-10B. The current production run is about to hit the 60 mark. There is a lot of talk that a new batch of J-10B's with domestic WS-10A engines is coming soon. But after so many years waiting for that engine I'll believe it when I see it.
Maybe the J-10Bs are busy preparing for the September parade, so they can come out as a surprise, like the J-11Bs in the 2009 parade.
