J-10 Thread IV

looks like the old 1035 with a new WS-10G engine

I'd say it's just for testing. The reason is that the engine looks different than that in 1035. This could be the rumored 14-ton WS10B/G. Therefore, new test flies have to be done before production.

Or it could just be that the nozzle isn't contracted.

It would be my guess too.

Long wait for WS10 on J10. Better news than another J20 prototype IMO.

Ultra modern J10B which comes with the full package a stunning aircraft and a top tier for any Air Force

... and they are not the same, so IMO it is not simply '1035' !

Can you tell me what is the difference between the two WS-10 engines? I think the engine in the new photo is WS-10 with its nuzzle opened up a bit more than the photo of 1035 revealing the inner paddles which is darker. So I don't think the new photo says whether it is a new WS-10 variant or not.

 

[taxiya]

See the dark gaps in the first and last photos. They are ordinary WS-10.

We are not exactly back to square one but its going to take some time (years?) before we are going to see a J-10B/C with a WS-10B/G engine.

There is no wait the J10B is flying with WS10B engine, that's just this one aircraft I mean

When will the first regiment start flying with this engine ? We will have to wait and see

It could be that the next batch of J10B will use this engine or it could be that J10C uses this engine

Either way this is a good development
