Actually, the visibility rearward looks excellent to me. It isn’t like the pilot can see through the ejection seat. Besides, if they end up with a system like the F-35 has, it won’t matter.

In that regard, it’s looks pretty comparable to the F-35. And besides, I have no doubt this thing has a serious sensor package if the reports are to go by.

YES WE DID!!!!!!! YES WE DID!!!!!!!!…….YOU ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL BAAAAAAAADAAAAAAAAASSSS-MOTHAUKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

………BYE-BYE F-35…..(0.5m^2- DON’T MAKE MY SLIPPERS LAUGH!!!!!!)

Are we gonna have to put you back on the tranquilizers for the day, Otaku? :p

It almost looks as if there is a DSI ridge inside that intake.

/first speculation :diablo:

EDIT: There is currently over 200 viewers watching this thread. Wow.

Quit pretending like F-22 look-a-like intakes, exhaust, or anything else is the only way that works. Thousands of engineers worked on this multi-billion $$ project. They know better. 😎

Oh, and this is only the beginning.

I called it, the very first pictures would have someone calling it an F-22 ripoff within five minutes! I called it!!! 😮

You mean QuadroFX…!! Link-1, Link-2

Not QuantumFX 😡

Good lord, how did this happen here? QuantumFX, QuadroFX, who’s copying whom?

Boeing does it again. :rolleyes:

“Sixth Generation” my ass. I just love Boeing’s advertising. I would like for them to actually, you know, define the term “Sixth Generation” instead of just using it as a promotion buzz word. For real results, they should just go ahead and call it a tenth generation fighter jet…

UAC CEO Alexey Fyodorov, former head of the Irkut manufacturing plant, has confirmed on numerous occasions that there are ambitions to develop a light fighter complement to the PAK FA. The priority for the moment, however, is the PAK FA.

Theres always been talk of a lightweight 5G fulcrum successor, but this is the first I’ve heard of them seriously considering it by any means. Do they even have the money to support two 5G programs at this point? :confused:

Any word if it will be MiG?

U.S. Air Force Lt. Gen. Daniel J. Darnell, deputy chief of staff for air, space and information operations, suggests that the Su-35 is “equal or superior” to the F-15.

:diablo:

What the hell is a “Talarion”? :confused:

It shows that any advantages that extra control surfaces and/or Thrust Vectoring provide can now be emulated by relaxed stability FBW.

Some time ago they modified the flight software to the TVCless Su-35. At an airshow, the Su-35 emulated the maneuvers of the Thrust-Vectored Su-37 perfectly, without thrust vectoring.

That and they decided to remove the canards to improve it’s stealth signature. That being said, the canards are still offered as an export option.
