I wonder why КнААПО (largest aircraft-manufacturing company in Russia) would place a photoshopped F-22 in there official website labeling it as PAK-FA....!!

Speculations my friend.
Is there any one who has not seen a pic of the yet to be discovered "Aliens" ?
Its like "Probable" design. Moreover as far as i remember its Artistic Impression never given any Serious consideration.

confermation of flight testing
traslation
18/01/2010
The rise in the air the fifth generation fighter will take place before the end of January
Interfax-AVN
Finalized the first flight of long-term aviation system Frontal Aviation (PAK FA), told Interfax-AVN on Monday a source in Komsomolsk-on-Amur.
"The exact date of recovery in air the fifth generation fighter will be determined during this week. The very first flight is planned to meet before the end of January," - said the agency.
According to him, now at the airport of Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Production Association (KnAAPO) conducted extensive ground testing of the first flight model of PAK FA.
"Already implemented a number of runs a fighter for the runway, during which the aircraft engines are tested at various operating modes, braking system, control system and a fighter, etc." - the source said.
According to him, "no failures during the runs was not, which gives hope that the timing of lifting fighter in the air will not be transferred."
Earlier, the president, chairman of United Aircraft Corporation Alexei Fedorov told that we are considering two options for the first flight of the fifth generation fighter. One - in Moscow, based on the Flight Research Institute named after Gromov, the second - in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. "There are pros and cons of one and the second option, however the process of preparing the first flight is moving fast enough" - he said.
Under development by Sukhoi Aviation Complex promising Frontal Aviation has a high intellectualization side. Characteristic features of the PAK FA are also multi-functionality (ability to solve problems defeat both air and ground targets in all weather and time of day); maneuverability, low visibility in the optical, infrared and radio wavelengths, the ability to take off and land using land runway 300 -400 meters.
According to prognoses, the fifth-generation combat aircraft will be able to make long flights at supersonic speeds with multiple refueling in the air, have a qualitatively new electronics and maximum automation of the flight.
Among other qualities of combat aircraft - multi-use weapons, the possibility to simultaneously attack multiple air targets and ground targets with high precision weapons, powerful airborne defense, high efficiency and safety.

21.01.10 ?????? ????? ????? ????????? ?? 29 ?????? - ??????? ???????
FIRST FLIGHT PAKFA HELD UNTIL 29 JANUARY
The magazine Asas ( «Wings, January 20, 2010) published an article that the first flight PAKFA inevitable and will be held in the near future.
Industry sources said Russia's defense industry, which first flew fighter Sukhoi T-50 (PAKFA) may occur in the period until next Friday, January 29. :twizt:
In December 2009 the aircraft was delivered to the airfield KNAAPO for testing and has already conducted ground running, where the tested control system, brakes and other elements. Interestingly, the prototype was delivered to the KNAAPO to the Far East of Russia, although traditionally the first flights of prototype aircraft with the 30-ies of the past century, traditionally held on the test airfield in Zhukovsky near Moscow.
"Transfer" of the aircraft KNAAPO can be regarded as a desire to hide from the eyes of a prototype of the world press, at least during the first flights.
To date, despite numerous speculations on the appearance of a fighter, not a single reliable picture of T-50, not even the image model airplane

An aa bhi jaa PAK FA. Itna time toh ladkiyan bhi nahi leti.
^^^
Bhai Sahab ... Larkiyon ko Laser guided bomb, BVR, Sleath tech, Engine etc etc nahi hota na isliyeh time lagta hai ...

kya baat kar rahe ho? Tumne kabhi laser guided bomb nahi dekhe? Aur unka engine toh bohot powerful hota hai, Aur hum unhe BVR se dekh lete hain. lollllllllll

They would be better served to release the pics for propaganda purposes. I'm sure U.S. intelligence already has close up pics of it from it's taxi run.
might be might be not, if they r not using blind spots , ur smoke screen ,

?????????? ????????. ????? - ??
- It is said that this Thursday will be the first flight of Fifth-Generation Fighter. Meanwhile in the U.S. the prototype heavy fighter YF-22 took off back in 1991. Now the U.S. Air Force has more than a hundred front-line F-22s. Why are we so far behind the U.S.?
Before the collapse of the Soviet Union, the rate of fifth-generation fighter development in both countries were generally comparable. The prototype aircraft developed by Russia's Mikoyan firm (product 1.44) was ready to fly in 1994-1995, but due to lack of financial resources has made two flights in 1999 alone, and the programme was discontinued.
In conditions of chronic under-funding of Russia's military-industrial complex, it was not possible to create such a complex weapons system, like fifth-generation fighter, equal to U.S. standards. In fact, the normal budget Financing project was open only in 2005-2006, but up to this point work was carried out mainly at Sukhoi's own expense. From this point of view, if we can assume that the real hard work on the PAK-FA programme began only in mid-decade.
In addition, by following the Americans we can minimize the conceptual and technical risks, to avoid the mistakes that were committed by the leader of the race. Also note that Russia remains the only country, except the United States, with a capability to create a fifth generation fighter.
In the World there'll probably be only three such states- the United States, Russia and China.
- Why was Sukhoi declared the winner of the 5th gen fighter contest when MiG, as you said, already had a flying prototype of this aircraft?
In 2002, the most important factor in choosing "Sukhoi" as the winner was the ability of the OKB to begin work on the PAK FA with the company's own funds. Sukhoi beat "MiG" not only in the financial sense, but also, most importantly, had a much more impressive capacity to innovate. But now in the United Aircraft Building Corporation will open prospects for subcontracting the PAK FA programme.
-The U.S., along with the heavyweight F-22, has created an easier and cheaper mass-produced fifth-generation fighter- F-35. Why has Russia gone towards the creation of a heavy machine, but not a cheap lightweight fighter?
This is quite justified. Russia and our partner on this project, India - are countries with vast territories, and in any case, we need a powerful machine with a big heavy capability and increased radius of action.
- It is considered that the distinctive features of a fifth generation fighter - are low profile RCS, radar with active phased array antenna, supersonic cruising speed and maneuverability. Will PAK FA have all these attributes?
Yes. The aerodynamic configuration of PAK FA is slightly more conservative compared to the F-22, but without a doubt, measures have been implemented on the aircraft to reduce it's visibility in all (not just radar) physical fields. For the PAK FA is being developed not just a radar with an active antenna, but an entire multi-purpose integrated radar system, which will contain five built-in antennas.
-When the plane finally actually appears, won't it will be "golden"? So expensive that it will not find buyers. What is your prediction: How many of these machines are the Russian and the Indian Air Forces planning to buy?
Based on the economic opportunities in Russia and the needs of its air force, we can assume that prior to 2025-2030 we should have to buy from between 150 to 200 fifth-generation fighters. Today, however, to accurately predict this, is of course, impossible, because the real economic situation for Russia in 2020 is unknown.
The Indian Air Force, I think, will order a minimum of 200-250 such aircraft, and India's the rate of economic growth remain at levels of the current decade, that is about 7-8%, we can hope for larger purchases.
