Modern Chinese Aircraft

Lips McGee · 14-12-2007

Hey guys and gals.

Was doing some research and thinking of building some of the more modern Chinese fifth generation fighters. (J-10, FC-1, etc). Does anyone know of any 1/48 kits out there for these?

Hi Mike,

Not sure about 1/48th scale but kits do exist for the J-10 - check the following link:

Might be worth checking them out to see if they do a 1/48th version.

Regards.....Mark

Thanks, Mark. Now I at least have a starting point.

No Problem Mike,

As you have probably guessed that is the Trumpeter Kit, they do some nice models in their range too.

Meanwhile, Howabout a pair of Radio Controlled J-10'S both powered by Turbine engines..??

I've done a few trumpeter kits and have enjoyed them immensely, they are typically of high quality and a pleasure to build as a result. I'm still on the fence about getting this one... I'm almost religious about 1/48 stuff.

As far as the video... holy smokes. That kind of timing control is hard enough from the cockpit, let alone from a hundred meters. Impressive video, thanks!
