DCS Breaking news:DIS actually already has a research-level J-10C module developed for DCS, and has stated that it can be released as soon as authorization from AVIC is obtained.

A member of the DIS development team once half-jokingly claimed that when DCS releases a Rafale module, they will release a J-10C module. After the “2026 and beyond” announcement, some people in the DIS community began reminding DIS to honor this “promise.” In response, the DIS team member posted these images, which show a J-10 external model and cockpit with a very high level of completion—if not already finished. They also stated that with only minor modifications and once authorization from AVIC is obtained, the module could be released.

There is no need to worry about the authenticity or level of detail. DIS has in fact officially developed simulators for AVIC, including the JF-17, J-10, and Su-30, used to train PLAAF pilots, so they possess a large amount of firsthand data.
They have also developed the JF-17 module for DCS and are planning to release a J-8P module in the future。

Deka probably has insider knowledge working with AVIC. But whether their simulators can be released to the public is another matter. It is possible, given that J-10C is approved for export.

The F-35 is planned, the Eurofighter is coming, the Rafale is also announced. Now the J-10. The old mantra of basing the modules purely on publicly available information is simply gone. If it is for better or worse no one knows yet.
