PL-16 specs leakedThis is NOT a drill
>>65201907Google translated version
>>65201911>57 air battle>Targets more than 180km awayThis is Pakistan vs India no? Sounds pretty fucking grim
>>65201907>MAKO, AIM-174 and AIM-260 are all DOAFuck me dead man
>>65201927Nobody has demonstrated that they can lock and track a 5th generation fighter at anything approaching those maximum ranges, which are all taken under the most optimistic conditions. This is scary for logistical assets, old strategic bombers, and 4th generation fighters, but nothing a relevant power has introduced in the last twenty years is getting hit outside 100km.
>>65201911implessive
I'm sure this isn't just more disinfo
>>65201907what name of take picture ?
>>65201907Impleassivuru
>>65201907>leakedah yes the chinese are very famous for leaking stuff
It's important to remember that Chinese products almost never do what they say on the box.
>>65201951PL-15E monkey models are confirmed to have scored Rafales from 145km away>but muh pakistanthey won
>>65201969Even not confirmed by paki officially, get back to your Reddit.
How's that stealth detecting radar going? Oh wait, they executed the guy in charge because it was all bullshit. How about the J-20? Oh wait, same result. J-36 you were waving your tiny dicks about for years? Bullshit too.
>>65201969>shitskins fighting the poosThere is nothing to be learned from this battle, frankly.
>>65201907this is going to mean 300km range against a bomber-sized non-stealth target, so basically a chink AIM-174hardly a wunderwaffen to shout about
>>65201907>leakedChina "leaks" shit after 3 levels of government approval, same as "senior sources say" in western governments.
>>65201911To be better safe than sorry, we need an a2a missile that's 600km in range
Implessive "leaked" "true" performance!
>>65201981No no, chinkoids just have magic tech where with the power of Mao they get 150% more range with the same volume and missile diameter compared to whitey
>>65201999>same volume and missile diameterlolpoint out where in the chart they claimed thatjust like in the ol Soviet days, it'll probably have to have a bigger and less efficient missile body
>>65201907>variable thrust national body engineI'm going to go out on a limb and say that is a liquid fuel engine. National body implies the structure and the engine are integrated. Its probably non-cryogenic binary liquid propellent but may be storable liquid oxidizer/solid fuel. Some interesting exotic storable propellant(s) likely.
>>65201907+100km for every successor. man I can't wait for the PL-23 so we can see 1000km!
>>65201911Who's Gionee?
Konchiwa dude!
>>65202039>national bodythe word appears to be 国体maybe they mean domestically designed?
>>65202039Third option: Gas based propellant created by combining a solid fuel with a stable liquid, like making acetylene gas by combining calcium carbide and water.
>>65201927Meteor bros :(
>>65202199I wonder if MBDA can say "fuck it" and create a missile based on Meteor engine but scaled up to the size of AIM-174 or AIM-260
Wow, that's so sad.500 billion to israel.
>>65202208I don't think there is a technical reason why they could not.It's really about use case (i.e. shooting tankers and AWACS), and target acquisition (how do you even find a target at that range? Forward operating radar UAS to find tankers? Suicidal AWACS that flies within 250 km of you for no reason?)
>>65202216Netanyahu doesn't want the money anymore It's over
>>65202208>range +1000km
>>65202351>ICAAMeIntercontinental Air-to-Air Missile
>>65201907>>65201911This looks more like a marketing slide than an official internal document.
>>65202628what would be the difference?
>>65202628it's an official internal marketing slide
>>65201911>it is now 10 meters long and weighs 6 tonssuccess!
>>65202638Presentation and intent of communication
>>65201932phew, we sure are lucky that the airfleet is completely made up of 5th generation fighters!Imagine if there was stuff like awacs, tankers, conventional bombers, 4th gen jets, sub hunters, logistical planes....that would be troublesome!
