Flateric can you tell us about what you mentioned at paralay forum? Are there one more secret PAK-FA prototype or a different type:confused:

by secret I mean a reason of 50-1 fligh tests break

And when will the sukhoi start show?:D

waiting as much as you do. rumors that before end of November. surely much pressure from tops to fly at least one PAV before the end of the year

it’s frameless on F-35. transparency is seamless, and just has support bow inside and has nothing common in design to MiG-21F-13 except way of opening of course

wrong statement to assume that the T-50 will not have a frameless canopy

it’s correct statement. bow here to stay. T-50 transparency is silica glass, not acrylic/polycarbonate, due to temperature stress limits, and was never intended to be single-piece as it allows to save weight and add strength
‘articles’ you are referencing to is actually a description of R&D codenamed ‘Ashug’ and it only tell of frameless canopy transparency, not canopy+windshield combo (easily calculated while compared transparency size mentioned in Ashug description, to size of T-50 canopy).
that was already achieved at T50-2
like designers of B-2, F-117A, F-23A, Sukhoi designers went for framed canopy

Bogdan was at controls today

i was refering if those probes will be deleted.

nose boom? turn on your logic

also i would like to see one piece canopy 😀

sci-fi and fanart is in other department store
