Didn't Northrop Grumman build the B-2? The YF-23 rejection was certainly strange. On paper it was the better fighter.

I wouldn't have said that. The MiG-29 has been continuously upgraded and the MiG-35 is a decent step forward. What 'failed' projects they have had didn't fail as hard as Boeing's X-32. Boeing is very much a large aircraft company not a fighter manufacturer, all they have is McDonnell Douglas legacy work wrt fighters.

It does look like something that was added after build. Maybe for testing purposes.

Not looking at the X-32. Every good fighter Boeing is now involved with was designed by McDonnell Douglas pre-merger.

Emergency stop button?

God.

Well the F-18E is just an upgraded C. That's why it's still an 'F-18'. Their last attempt at an all-new aircraft looked like that below. Now some people argue that the F-35 is ugly, but this looks like a primary school lego build. This actually appears to have been built by people who weren't protesting about their pay scale at the time. It still looks better than the X-32 even in actual lego.

So the brochure said.

2-way thrust vectoring. Greater thrust-to-weight ratio. Better climb rate. Up to 10g load. Optical tracking of stealth targets at 45km. What about the 1.44 too? MiG Skat? Boeing basically just gets its ass kicked by Lockheed everytime.

Why is there a tail of an aircraft protruding from a wall in background?

Well the bitch is still producing new fighter planes like the MiG-35 and has had other projects like the 1.44. Boeing bitch on the other hand....

It'll be interesting to see but the US only really have one fighter aircraft manufacturer now. Russia still have two.

These missiles look too small to take down an aircraft.

It's a pigeon blender. Don't know.
