Yeah, I saw that. Looks interesting. Still, I don't think anyone's gonna catch the US and its defence industry/war machine in a long time. With the sheer amount of money sunk into defence, it just doesn't add up if anyone else catches up.
Not so stealthy when it gets caught on camera!
Don't be silly, Russia doesn't build planes
I didn't see anything?
looks kinda nice
Its got that stealthy look, yet holds that Russian styled design.
Pretty neat.

noice 
I bet they will only build like 2 and go bankrupt again, kinda like their SU37, SU47 programs.
Unless Chinese or Russians hack into our security.Mekstizzle wrote:

The irony of guns, is that they can save lives.
I think it would be more stealthy if they flew with the gear up...

It's darn ugly! Also, I doubt this thing comes close to the Raptor. Only took them 20 years to catch up
And above your tomb, the stars will belong to us.

at the first testflights, it's standard procedure to not fly with the gear upeleven bravo wrote:

if the engine fails the tires serve as a safe cushion for a crash. russian technology is amazing

China would make a cheap copy of the F22 and crashes after 4 minutes due to shit quality maintenance.War Man wrote:

They know the undercarriage is going to be there when they want to land.11 Bravo wrote:

They'll just test it flies on the first few flights, then they'll check all the systems later. Don't want to find out it doesn't fly well if you can't get the undercarriage back down
thats why every modern airplane has a gravity drop emergency release system.PrivateVendetta wrote:

That i'm sure has to be tested

Reminds me of an F-22 that has collided with a YF-23.cl4u53w1t2 wrote:
