Such a fountain of knowledge!
Stops by for a cheap shot. Too cowardly to put his own alleged knowledge up for scrutiny.
Say what?

what are you showing me here ? Those spots are more from just heat dissipation no ?
2014, Aviadarts in Voronezh.

That chopper toward the end was epic.
Are those intakes even curved at all because they look arrow straight but slanted?
They are very curved. But they don’t look very curved in some angles. At this vantage point, they are very curved. Nothing looks lined up

That would show up like a lighthouse at midnight to every vertical or circular polarized radar in the area.
No it wouldn’t. That is just a myth floating around out there. The YF 23 Widow has lots of engine fan exposed yet it had better stealth than the Raptor
i am a bit underwhelmed with the size of the armament bay considering the size of the jet. I thought they could have more room extending further toward the back of the body.
Really? Are you serious? Why would you think i’d believe this CGI is real?
was just providing a depiction.
I wonder if the Pak-Fa will ever open its weapons bay doors. J-20 did it in flight and have yet to see the Pak-Fa do it while static.

The J 20 is more of a “hey look, I have a 5th gen stealth fighter” project than the Pak Fa is.
If it’s an Israeli munition that caused that explosion then it’s not materially different and yet, you know that was not my point.
Anyway, RT is not a valid source unless you want me to post videos of Russian action in Syria on the BBC?….
RT is a valid news source. Russia is not anti Israel.
It is generally accepted that dropping large explosive weapons or weapons which target areas of land in an area populated by civilians is unacceptable. Look at the discontent Israel provoked last time it moved into Gaza (using weapons far more accurate and far less destructive than Russia/Syria are). What were your reactions to that conflict?
There is plenty of evidence that the bombing of Aleppo has and is involving weapons which are being deployed indiscriminately. The Assad regime sees anyone still in that section of Aleppo as an enemy and is consequently trying to kill them. Russia wants Assad to stay, so they are targeting them too.
The international community views those people as civilians.
The “international community” uses these outrages selectively. The US has been bombing the middle east since 2002 and only this year, after Russia steps in to protect its interests, all of a sudden, there is outrage for civilians.
US wants to build an air base in Kherson, Ukraine, under cover of #Boeing reserve landing field.

The serial production J-20 looks really great! :applause:
@ QuantumFX : thanks for the hirez pics. :eagerness:
I still think the Chinese are tricking everyone into believing that the jet is ready for mass production and commissioning. They will probably make a few copies and fly them around a bit and claim that its in service. While they still do a couple years of leg work behind the scenes
Su-25 ready.
