IAF Chief Naik witness flight demonstration of PAK FA in Russia

the article on wikipedia made me believe that the FGFA will also have carnards

Doesn't appear to have canards, and judging from the PAK-50, I doubt if the FGFA would have them. But then, as far as the FGFA goes, these are just speculations.

Any random Tom, Dick or Harry can edit Wikipedia :P

watch your language : dont use bad words for that rickshaw driver. i guess he has troubled life so he came here as false fag so as to gain happiness by harrasing Indians.
 
They should use the remaining space for weapon bays or missiles

i agree with bolded part. it will increase depth of weapon bays. this way pak fa will be able to carry bigger weapons in its weapon bays like novator k 100.

That place is actually for the internal weapon bays.The current prototypes are built to test various aerodynamic performance parameter

when i said i agree with bolded part. it will increase depth of weapon bays. i was talking about internal weapon bays.

Something that I would have prefered as well, but the space is needed to create lift and add to it's aerodynamic performance, which the FGFA might need even more than Pak Fa, because of the additional weight.

When it is used for weapon bays, since the plane is stealthy, the underpart will be flat so there is no loss of lift . There is no need to worry about the air escaping from sides as it will be perpendicular to direction of motion so it doesnt effect the drag & lift. Not mention the vertical thrust vectoring increases the lift and the best thing in PAKFA is the whole vertical stabilizer acts as a rudder resulting in high angle of attacks and more maneuverability.
 
It's there you do not need to troll.... soon you will see PAF flying j-20 before your PAK-FA

These are absolutely stupid comments by black bird . I think in disscussion there should be no personalisation . . Dont wast the thread and try to absorb the countermeasures by the opposition , if you want to live in fools paradise . ok dear .

That's part of the lift body design, just like Flankers, Mig 29s, or F14 has it and flat fuselage doesn't mean more stealthy, the YF 23 fuselage has a similar design to create more lift and was considered to be more stealthy the the F22. The engine coverings of the Pak Fa needs to be shaped/angled and would be stealthy as well.

Even Mig1.44 is considered to be more stealthy than F-22. Flat belly helps in close A2A dog fights and flat belly makes even rcs of plane unlike others which will have some increased signature when it is on a maneuver.
