My opinion is that the F-23 should still have won the challenge... it's a class of it's own ;) and maybe it would already have gone faster (production wise) then it has been with the F-22, but that is just guessing...

This fighter of Sukhoi is a realy stunner... It looks like a mixture of S-37 (su-47) and a raptor... it's realy looking aggressive... ;)


T-50 for the RNLAF... HELL YESS!!!! ;)

The PAK-FA made her 2nd test flight on the 29th of January 2010. And yes, that is a rather enthusiastic female news presenter... :lol:

It might just be my point of view but this planes looks a lot like the YF-23 with an SU-27-series rear end :mrgreen:

... and :shock: 10 more years waiting for the serialproduction is expected to takes place

According to experts the T-50 is far from stealthy at this point and serial production in 2015 would be very optimistic. Time will tell...
