J-10 Thread IV

Ariana ... you are new here .... what your objectives and intentions by posting all articles to support that Israel helped China ... if it is the case, so what? There is no doubt among us that J-10 was influenced by Lavi and some help/assistance from Israel .... but saying that J-10 has some parts made in USA and Israle ... is just purely propaganda

You can find any articles to support anything you want to believe .. as simple as Google it.

Please dont waste the space and our time ... I am done responding to you

 

Hi Ariana,

To clarify, the book that you are referring to was published in January 2016, not September 2016. September was the date for the blog post that you referenced.

The blog itself pays no mention to the J-10 whatsoever. In fact, out of several blog posts that the author has made on the subject of the Lavi, none of them makes any mention of the J-10 (although there is quite a bit of detail surrounding the Lavi program itself and the design trades that went into it):

Finally, as someone who has actually read the book in question, I can attest that at well over 400 pages in length, the book makes only a passing reference to the role that Israeli engineers might have made in the development of the Chengdu J-10: all of two and a half pages worth. This is not a central topic of interest for this book, and nowhere does the book suggest that the J-10 contains any components produced in the United States or Israel.

 

Hi,'

So many posters dying to create distance between the design of the J10 and the istraeli involvement---it sounds so silly.

 

Anyone?

 

There has been close relations between China and Israel for a long time. China plays a large role in the current upgrade of Israeli railways. And it is well possible that Israeli companies transmitted much more US and Israeli technical information than US would think acceptable. To illustrate the Israeli attitude long ago a friend of mine emigrated to Israel around 1970 and found a job as chemical engineer with a pharmaceutical company and his work was to analyse US pharmaceuticals to duplicate them without paying for licences. But I imagine that since the Chinese AWACS that Israel was to build US is keeping a sharp eye on what is going on. There just cannot be any dependence of J-10 on Israeli or US parts. And the differences between J-10 and Lavi are so large that there is no support for notions that Israeli support had any significance to the development of J-10.

 

little over 300 a/s and little under 100 b/c. Total close to 400

 

Yes we can envisaged around 400 whose 300 A/S including about 25/30 for Navy.

In 11 AF Rgts minimum... + 15 with " Flankers ", 6 x JH-7A, 9 x J-8/recc also whose 2 on first, 24 x J-7 max, 7 x Q-5 and 7 x H-6 : 79 Rgts.
Total ~ 2100 fighters-bombers + 200 armed UAV B-6 in 5 Brigades.

+ 1 Navy Rgt
Have 300 combattants, 13 Rgts

 

So, annual production of about 40 aircrafts?

 

Little over 40, yes. Thats c and as variant combined.
