The jet is not in a beauty contest. If you want to see an ugly plane search up the x-32.

India has china to fight while Russia wont be needing too many jets to combat any particular country Moreover, too much military hardware is among the reasons for the collapse of the USSR. remember that before the US built a nuclear submarine, Russia had around 200 diesel subs. Then, they went on to build another 200 nuclear submarines, which, rusted in peace in the russian dockyards after the collapse.
Moreover, America has only 187 Raptors. so 200 is enough.
India is aiming at keeping a new generation of jets matching the ever-growing number in the chinese arsenal. So, it is an inevitable decision to be made....

Fifth-generation fighter will soon suffer the maneuverability
Fifth-generation fighter PAK FA (T-50) will soon begin testing maneuverability, said on Thursday honored test pilot and Hero of Russia, Sergei Bogdan.
Currently involved in testing three prototypes fifth-generation fighter. This year, to connect the fourth plane.
"The plane of the fifth generation in the near future, the program proceeds to test for super maneuverability. And those figures who now plays Su-35, T-50 aircraft in the near future will also be ready to perform," - said in an interview Bogdan "Russia 24" .
He noted that unlike the Su-35 (which is a plane 4 + + generation), the fifth generation fighter aircraft greater wing area, larger volume of fuel, the engine with higher thrust.
According to Bogdan, agility T-50 is just more, despite the great demands of his "signature." "There are all conditions that the aircraft will be significantly better than the Su-35", - said Bohdan.
Comparing the T-50 aircraft with an American fifth-generation fighter F-22 "Raptor", he said that our T-50 came later, so all the shortcomings that were identified from the Americans, were taken into account when creating a Russian aircraft.
"Our Su-30MKI in 1997 on the handling characteristics showed no worse than the" Raptor ". Have passed since 15 years. By the fact that" Raptor "shows now, we can judge that by handling it does not beat that plane , "- said Bohdan.
He stressed that the tactical maneuvers with the aircraft Malaysia and India show that Russian planes prevail in a "skirmish."
"I think our strike aircraft developed in the right direction", - said Bohdan.

Sukhoi T-50 Stealth Fighter Completes Tanker Plug Trial | Defense | RIA Novosti
Russian fighter maker Sukhoi's T-50 fifth-generation stealth fighter has completed initial approach trials to a flight refuelling aircraft, the company said on Tuesday.
The aircraft, T-50-2, made approaches to an Il-78 tanker in company with a Su-25UB trainer/strike aircraft.
The second prototype, T-50-2 is currently conducting a range of flight trials to test the new plane's flight envelope in subsonic and supersonic regimes and in different configurations.
The first prototype, T-50-1, is undertaking preparation for a flight test program involving flight at super-critical angles of attack and super-maneuverability.
In August, T-50-3 will start full tests of the aircraft's new active phased-array radar system and avionics, which the company says has already shown impressive results in air-to-air and air-to-ground tests.
The NII Tikhomirova radar will allow T-50 to attack targets at long-range in simultaneous air-to-air and air-to-surface modes, detect and classify group and single targets and simultaneously attack several targets at once with precision-guided weapons and also perform electronic warfare functions.
A fourth T-50 will join the test program later this year.
The T-50 is due to enter Russian Air Force service after 2015. A derivative of the aircraft is also due to enter service with the Indian Air Force at a slightly later date.

I GOT SOME INTERESTING ANALYSIS DONE BY A MEMBER ON KEY PUB ,I THOUGHT I SHOULD ALSO POST IT HERE

Russian fighter jet T-50 will protect from the "freezing"
Ministry of Industry industrial technology needed to create electronic filling for fifth-generation fighter PAK-FA (T-50). For the development of integrated modular avionics (IMA) combat systems department is ready to pay almost 68 million. Requires the development of data-processing modules that are responsible for the implementation of most processes, aircraft navigation, on-screen display, navigation, and many others - with the exception of the primitive sort of conditioning and landing gear.
In fact, the PAK FA is ready, the first batch of aircraft should, according to the plans of the Ministry of Defense, to get off the assembly line in 2015. Three prototype cars are undergoing flight test program. Therefore the Ministry of Industry is required industrial technology of thin avionics.
Most of the information about the characteristics of the T-50 is kept secret, it is known only that the aircraft meets the fighter of the fifth generation: developing a supersonic speed without afterburner turn, has a low radar visibility, maneuvers with significant loads.
According to the tender documents, the main objective of the project - to move from classical multimachine computer system to an integrated under the concept of IMA.
- A rejection of the system in which each individual task solves a single machine. Embedded systems, where many tasks can be executed on a single processor, - explained the "News" Konstantin Egorov, modular avionics specialist, head of the laboratory at the Research Institute of Aviation Systems.
Yegorov said that the technology is being promoted in the civil aviation, and, obviously, should be present in a military aircraft. IMA is less expensive than the conventional system, and thus may provide better performance. Each process gets a priority level, the most critical run first, so the system is protected from "freezing."
If the transition to the IMA does not happen in the T-50, it will affect the entire industry, because the creation of the fighter - one of the main incentives for the development of military-industrial complex of Russia, stated in the tender documentation. Global aviation industry has been transferred to a new integrated avionics system for more than ten years ago.
- Preservation of the classical scheme will increase the gap from the world of practice and finally make the domestic aviation industry uncompetitive - the authors predict that the terms of reference.
- This is a critical step forward for the Russian avionics - agrees expert in defense research, a senior fellow Ilya Klabukov MIPT. - From the point of view of improving military equipment and improve the country's defense program claimed no objection.
The specialists are advised to pay attention to the technical requirements for systems to be developed for the fighter. According to them, the equipment with the stated performance is unlikely to provide the technological superiority of Russia.
- The approach to its design is similar to both the designer and the Lego obsession to catch up with Lockheed Martin (a company specializing in the field of aviation. - "News"), and not on the technology of military superiority, - complains Klabukov. - As the basis for a system of standards is taken and the American Association of ARINC VITA, as if not designed avionics for the PAK FA, and for export Sukhoi Superjet.
Klabukov assumes onboard digital computer will
collected from refined CPUs development of JSC "MCST". In his view, the domestic circuit quite well for military equipment needed for the fighter class products military and space, where reliability is important. Even if you want to use chips from overseas that idea did not work out would be for this, Russia would have to either join, or seize equipment fraudulently. It is unlikely that any of the leading manufacturers of this equipment will sell Russia chip construction fighter.

Because India has the most need of such a huge number...... It is the best jet in design now(considering the costs) that can be inducted into the IAF. so, buying in plentiful is a good decision........

Flat Nozzle for 3D TVC... a good art.
For a moment I though it was real
However this is not a "flat" nozzle,,,but it can be said to be Stealthy IR signature-reducing nozzle.
