…

Thats because there was a comment/rumor that SAC may have got some info on CAC designs and thats how SAC came up with the ‘Anjian’ Dark-Sword UCAV concept (So SAC is not only copying from Sukhoi but from CAC too :eek:). One rumor was that the CAC design was a very long flat triangle (not too unlike the X-36). But these are all rumors. Nothing official.

…
I say China’s stealth fighter will fly in 2012 and will not have canards and will have DSI.

Yeah, I would say 2011 if all goes well, but probably around 2012. But we will have to wait an see. And even in 2012 it will have to fly with an uprated FWS-10 or a Russian engine and the 5th-gen engine won’t be ready for at least another 8 years.

IMHO the Chinese J-8II is but a modernized Su-15. There are quite a few similarities once you get past the more readily discernible, dissimilar features. I find it difficult to believe the Chinese made a leap from the J-8I to the J-8II without stealing from the Su-15’s basic layout.

Errrr……..no….

The J-8II is a J-8I with MiG-23 style nose and intakes

Raptor got nothing on this thing! :diablo:

Maaaan….. Thats some really fine @SS!

Its not a straight line. There definitely is some curving inside. I seriously doubt the whole compressor face is visible. Whatever visible parts should be taken care of by that blocker.

This pic was taken under similar conditions (if not the same night/morning), with the same downward LEVCON deflection. Rotating left, who in their right mind would think the c-face would be visible? :rolleyes:

…where are the landing-gear shadows on that ‘photoshop’ pic, there appear to be multiple light sources- but where are the shadows?

Damn……!!!

She gets prettier every day….
