… Then the Russians revealed the PAK-FA out of nowhere, that too almost in record time!!!

Pardon, but when was the T50 first aimed to enter service ? In what numbers and …

Come on ! In the same way You are mocking how much these F-22-lovers are exaggerate – and You are right – You are hyping a fighter, that is late even by official sources, delayed with nearly all development schedules, probably still hampered by issues and will be introduced in much lower numbers than expected.

In Germany we always say: Wer im Glashaus sitzt, sollte nie mit Steinen werfen :stupid:

INS Vikrant, going the same way as INS Vikramaditya. The shipyard gets all the blame for funding and other policy/decision related problems.

Interesting. in comparison to the last image I know (from April I think) they removed all the scaffoldings.

However it does not look as if any sensors are installed ??

Deino

^ so no new comparisons or analysis coming out of chinese outlets?

No problem with that, but if You look at the last posts they all circle around when the €F was is or was able to carry what load under what circumstances and at best in comparison to the mighty MiG-29/RD-33-combo. This second page does not even contain one single notion of the FC-31.

Do we again need to trash a thread – here on the FC-31 – with a penis-contest on MiG-29 vs €F ??? 😡

We once again see, JSR is living in an alternative universe !

Finally a new good image…

Sadly I cannot upload.
