The Chengdu J-10 fighter family has just taken a major leap forward with the latest development variants known as the J-10B. These upgraded models boast significant enhancements to their airframe, avionics, and armament systems. Currently in production is the J-10B, which took to the skies for the first time in December 2013 and was fully operational by 2016. Outfitted with an advanced AESA radar and cutting-edge air-to-air missiles, the aircraft is quickly closing in on achieving 4.5-generation fighter standards. Initial flight testing of the J-10B single-seat fighter commenced in December 2008. A key feature that sets this variant apart from its predecessors is the chin-mounted diffuser supersonic inlet (DSI). By integrating a one-piece bump at the top of the inlet, this design eliminates the need for any movable parts, resulting in reduced weight and a significantly minimized radar signature.
