Now look at this figure and tell me what u see..........................COST CUTTING
I APPRECIATE UR ANSWER MAN..........I have been saying the same thing but s-duct has stealth advantages.
can u pls clarify if j-20 has s-duct??
this is correct
PAK-FA intake is not so straight as some member believe.Nozzles of Type-30 engines will be radically different with serious stealth consideration(From VIAM chief).
Intakes are different,2nd YF-23 prototype also had F/A-18 landing gears and some part to reduce development cost.There is nothing wrong to cut development cost by using existing parts.
You do understand that that image is of a prototype????????
Since there is little citable info on J-20/31's radar,engine,RAM it is pretty hard to compare it with other fighters.Blended fuselage not flatfuselage is good for RCS considerations,but one thing is common in all 5th gen. fighters that they are all edge aligned.again i agree completely.....our budget cannot match chinese or usa
point is that ppl here are challenging me claiming j-20's shaping is inferior to pakfa..........i refuse to accept it.
to compensate for speed,agility,lift etc it had to compromise on stealth on key areas,,,,whats to hide in this??

Now back to J20
1)j-20 has s-ducts,pakfa dosen't. DONT show a fanboy paint job for proving your point. I can easily make it a Y duct using paint
2)j-20 has internal EOTS........pakfa has suspended pod. J20 using EOTS is fanboy info.
3)J-20 dosen't mount its irst like a ball at the front...............pakfa does. Have you seen the bulky wing actuators of J20?? they are far worse then the small IRST
4)the underbelly of j-20 is optimized,,,pakfa's is not. Again, having smooth surface doesnot mean optimized. And Russians are far more experience than the chinese when it comes to designing fighter planes .
Provide some concrete proofs, not opinions based on looks or fanboy images
it's obvious that PAK-FA (current prototypes) are not as stealthy as the raptor --- however PAK-FA might have the edge of IRST which raptor doesn't have
raptor is out of question............it won't be deployed imho..,,,,,but f-35 will be and USA is gonna induct 1800 f-35
@BlueDot_in_Space
read this too..........its not fanboy art
Chinese Military Aviation: Fighters
J-20's Stealth Signature Poses Interesting Unknowns

whats that then?? I can write one about Tejas extolling its stealth capabilities with small size, Y ducts and far less moving parts. Did you even care to read those articles and authenticate its sources?? blogs that you quoted are nothing more than speculations without any concrete source. Can you do better than look based opinion, fanboy paint job and speculative blogs???
