Not quite.
The first picture depicts a german IRIS-T missile. It clearly isn't even Chinese given the english writing around the seeker.
The second picture is a terrible adaptation of an ausairpower drawing of high offboresight missiles. It's obvious it isn't chinese in origin given the target is meant to be a PLA fighter.
The third and fourth pictures are legitimate photos of J-20 and J-16 carrying PL-10 missiles or PL-10 missile dummies.
the last picture is a CGI of PL-10, but not official.

This is the clearest image we have so far of PL-10, and it is a few years old already.

So by the PL-10, do you mean the Infared-homing one( PL-10 ASR) or the radar guided one in which case that would be a rather old missile.

I assume you've googled PL-10 and maybe found the wikipedia article on the name? Ignore that article. The name of the missile they describe is PL-11, basically a Chinese version of AIM-7. For some reason they list it as PL-10. Later in the article they even describe DK-10 as derived from it, which is ridiculous because DK-10 is derived from PL-12.

PL-10 is the name of the new generation SRAAM, and is the only missile with that name.

Truly no offence ... but forget APA !

Most of their - or better to say Carlo's - reports have only one aim: to tell that the F-22 is the best, the best and very best fighter in the world and the only option Australia has to avoid being overrun someday by either Russian or Chinese hordes .... :p

Ok, i'm a bit confused o_O.... maybe some of the more knowledgeable members can create a thread of Chinese aircraft weapons (Missiles, Rockets and bombs) (PL-XX's, KJ-XX's and such) with a little table. I would just google it, but it seems wikipedia, APA, and other western sources are not reliable...
