PAK-FA takes to the sky!

[ptldM3]

No offense but i am bit disappointed at the Russians on this one. The appearance of PAK-FA design looks no where as stealthy as F-22 or even F-35 but I am not denying that the Plane is a 5th generation Stealth air craft. The rear of PAK-FA is exposed for IRST systems which have the capability to detect BVR..

So is the F-35...

belly of PAK-FA is not as sleek as F-22 and F-35 meaning the RCS is not going to be as less as the American stealth fighter.
.

What about the YF-23? it has a similar belly to the Fakfa, and the YF-23 is said to have a smaller rcs than the YF-22. Also Sukhoi has said it is vertually invisible to radar.

agreed with growler pak-fa is nuts russians are making fool of india i think Latest F 15 eagle have a kill on it i dont see pakfa capable ruling over any 5 generation fighter jet im not doing this becoz of it is for india but reality is that so much hype was created waste trillions of dollars on this machine is in garbage bag no use any latest 4 gen fighter jet will bring this pak fa down

How can you tell an aircrafts capabilities just by looking at it? The Russians have reduced the RCS dramatically on the SU-35, so this should be a leap. About the F-15, the SU-30mki can match it, and the SU-35 is superior to the MKI. The F-15 would have a hard time trying to kill something it can't see. Moreover, the Pakfa is to have AESA and a new generation of weapons.

Remember this is just a prototype, the final product will look very different, i'm sure. Everying looks stealthy except for the rear, but i excpect that to be changed to some extent.

Look at the F-22 and YF-22 prototypes, they're very different.

well well well,look wat we got here.
congratulations Indians and Russians,we finally saw PAK-FA,with an awesome side view.
its rear part look cheap and landing gears too similar to old birds even no new jet engine.but yes its first prototype,have to go a long way.

it doesn't look like to those fantasy bird that we use to see.but some how looks similar to f22.
well done

buddy please check pics and vids thread in indian defence section. There is top view of pak-fa and check my profile. i added Pak-fa pic. Wow it is a beauty and a beast both.

and for Pakistani bros.
stop making fun of their new aircraft,they some how have started a stealth project which is easily viewable to everyone that means they can get a complete successful fighter after few years with more development.
but what we got in answer NOTHING.!

and USAs airframe designs doesn't reflect stealthy or non-stealthy nature of any aircraft.no metallic materials also not visible to radar.stealth design is a combination of not metallic or composites air frame and radar rays reflecting design,which can be different to f22 or f117.u can see b2,f117,f22 n f35 are different in designs.
so better not make fun and wait for details.
and hope that our country do something for this.

Congratulations Indians

I think the Russians need to be congratulated first as its their technology and a very little will be from Indian labs except for the investment.

It's just a prototype it's not even painted. I really want to see this plane in a dark grey or black paint scheme.




Super Falcon what's not stealthy? It has all the stealth features, nose, intakes, v-stabs, and smooth lines. Minus the conventianal engines nozzoles it looks similar to the YF-23, which was said to me more stealth than the YF-22. Even Gambit said it looked nice.
