@Humair4561 @Sooba_Hazara_ I think UAVs have taken the role of CAS at least partially.

Ukrainian aviation channel about duels and encounters between the F-16 and Russian Su-35, including this morning.

They acknowledge that the R-37Ms and R-77-1/M are great.
It's worth reading.

@RealAirPower1 Going for so many different types will always end badly for any Airforce.

[Skysentinel @Findnoname123]

@kaskaide1 @j26760 How they got firing solution with R-77 when the BVR skirmish was 150-200+Km?
I don't think there will be more than one friendly fire.

@PLA_MilitaryUpd Too big for Jeff to carry them.

@OSPSF Hind is missing.

@FirstDagger @Fighterman_FFRC @HLC_actual They will be likely still canards so not a big RCS compromise. But it may not be the most stealthy 6th Gen fighter considering Chinese 6th gen designs which I find more stealthy.
Electronic stealth is although more important, sensors having low LPI/LPD in which US excels.

@Mohsin_o2 It's Su-22.

[Skysentinel @Findnoname123]

@kaskaide1 It's YJ-91 based on Russian Kh-31 Anti-radiation missile.

The PL-15 AAM versus the PL-16 AAM :

[Skysentinel @Findnoname123]

@martialdcs J-16 is better currently at least in air superiority role.
Things may change after the operationalization and integration of AIM-260.

[Paradox (8-nil) @altfoxb]

If you notice on AESA equipped Chinese fighters & in F16 B60 that they have slightly slanted nose cones.

This might be due to the fact that slant offers more physical space to install larger apertures. The extra space would also come in handy if swash plates are added.

@altfoxb JHMCS I mogs JHMCS II

[Paradox (8-nil) @altfoxb]

Some JHMCS drip for ma avgeek fellas.

[Skysentinel @Findnoname123]

@AirPowerNEW1 Basically USA equivalent of PLAAF J-16.

[Skysentinel @Findnoname123]

@BrahMosSpeaks Ya it's a fact. Even if IAF go for F-35s, PAF will get it's hands on Saudi F-35s for exposure.

@RehanSiraj1 He was the first to use TWS mode to shoot two targets simultaneously using AIM-120Bs.
