This jet was developed to test superhigh AOA manuevering for fighters. Its a FBW canard/delta with thrust vectoring paddles on the exhaust nozzel. Want to know how much the entire project costs? $100M, no kidding. Instead of waiting for J-10s or $70M typhoons, I wonder how many countys would be interested in this as a low cost daylight interceptor?
