Fudd Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 I am sure US spy satellites and intelligence have PAK-FA photos already ;] The US already has one and has been flying it around Groom Lake for the past two weeks. Forward flight = checks good. :D The code is probaly in Russian anyway.
Shaman Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 Considering that all US satellites position are known and tracked real time, taxi-tests were done when US spy sats were not in position to take photographs or mother nature helped with overcast =p 51PVO Founding member (DEC2007-) 100KIAP Founding member (DEC2018-) :: Shaman aka [100☭] Shamansky tail# 44 or 444 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 100KIAP Regiment Early Warning & Control officer

Vekkinho Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) ^^^ Actually...Yes, that's about it... ...of course it's a render but looks most likely as I've read that some MiG-1.42 design solutions are also included with PAK-FA... Edited January 28, 2010 by Vekkinho [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Boberro Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 Nice render :D Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D ಠ_ಠ ツ

Fudd Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 This add was seen in the Moscow Times today: For Sale: High Performance 5th generation Stealth jet fighter, fully armed, new paint. Looks very similar to US F-22, but without the added reliability, functionality or air superiority. Airframe has only 10 hours in the wind tunnel and less than 1 mile taxi distance. All serious offers considered. Will trade for the RoKAF trainer by the same name or similar functional aircraft. :D The code is probaly in Russian anyway.

How similar it is to F-22 is to be seen, and about reliability, functionality, air superiority... It`s the prototype`s first flight for God`s sake :doh: And the last part I hope it`s a joke (like the rest) cause I don`t see how someone can compare these two aircraft (PAK-FA and T-50 Golden Eagle) in terms of functionality.
