***********************************************
The J-8 was the first PLAAF aircraft of domestic design, with design work beginning in 1964.
The overall configuration is a rather straightforward enlargement of the MiG-21/J-7 layout
to accomodate two engines. Although it resembled Mikoyan's experimental Ye-152A, contrary
to some early reports, it was not based on that aircraft. Production began in December 1979,
with about 100-150 units of the first configuration entering service. Design work on the
improved J-8-2 began in 1980, with production beginning in the late 1980. As with the cancelled
"Super 7" upgrade to the single-engine J-7, the J-8II completely reworks the front end of the
aircraft, adding a much larger radar and ventral air inlets, along with various other less
pronounced improvements. The best that can be said of the J-8 is that once upgraded it will be
no more than an advanced obsolete aircraft, comparable in configuration and aerodynamic
performance to the Su-15 FLAGON.
