Talk:Chengdu Super-10
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Is this aircraft actually planned, or speculated? -- Adeptitus 18:48, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
I remember reading an article about this on Sinodefense, I think its planned, but of course China is not going to release any info on it me thinks.
- Come on guys! That's a MiG 1.44, not J-10. Unless a Super-10 is a MiG 1.44.
It would make sense, since the J-10 already looks very similar to the 1.44 (infact it was inspired by the 1.44 & the Eurofighter), plus MiG is helping on the project...
In the photos, it has 2 engines. That would be a heavily modfied aircraft. Hoewver it does not make sense, because China is researching on the J-12. The J-10 is meant to be a cost-effective multirole aircraft, with only one engine.--Arado 08:49, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
The J-12 (being made by Shenyang) is a stealth aircraft, made to compete with the F-22/F-35 and the PAK FA. This one (Super-10/J-13) is more of a upgrade to the Chengdu J-10 to compete with the Eurofighter. http://www.sinodefence.com/airforce/fighter/jxx.asp

- I am a little confused. Is the Super-10 and J-13 the same project? If they are, why not merge the two articles to prevent confusion? -Heilme 02:03, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
