J-20's Chin-mounted EOIRST is an exact replica of F-35's. Moreover, the locations of 5 other apertures are also same !!View attachment 8521

Chinese got a lot info from cyber attack on F 35 development file but its fair ,even Russia,France and US copy system

Out of the 6 cameras of AAQ-37, only 2 are dedicated to Air-to-Air scanning. However, it seems to be adequate,

Certainly because the EODAS is nothing but a glorified MAWS. It's principle duty is to alert the F-35 pilot to incoming missile threats from the ground & air.

F-35 is a Joint Strike Fighter. It's not designed as an air-superiority platform so obviously it's sensors & systems have a greater emphasis on ground/surface targets rather than aerial ones. For the USAF, the F-35 in a contested airspace will depend upon the support provided by the F-22 and F-15C air-dominance aircraft.

The RAF/FAA F-35s will depend upon the Eurofighter Typhoon for air cover.

considering JSF's advanced data fusion which gets inputs from satellites, ground based radars and AWACS.

Sensor & data-fusion is not a capability that's unique to F-35. And neither is the availability of support assets only present on the Western side.

:biggrin2: Why can't we ?

I have always been for beg ,borrow steal.If we do not get ToT then steal it ,for eg we need full ToT for SPECTRA then only thing that Rafale has which other does not ,if French does not give it then copy it ,That why I say Mig 35 and advance F 18 SH are better as we get full ToT and advance F 18 SH has some of avionic derive from F 35 ,so India must serious consider this deal.

A rear MWB aerodynamics in action - special measures create a "wave curtain" over the bay, protecting weapon from doors and airframe chockwaves before launch and the bay itself from weapon chockwaves after the launch.

and extrapolation to forward MWB:

Beautiful!

Take Off: India & Russia Poised to Agree Development of Fifth Gen Fighter
India and Russia are set to embark on an ambitious mission to co-develop one of the most advanced Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA). Experts say hail the decision, as western countries are reluctant to actual transfer of technology.

New Delhi (Sputnik) – One of the biggest defense deals between India and Russia is likely see the light of day very soon. Indian Defense Minister Manohar Parrikar has confirmed that the final agreement on developing the FGFA between India & Russia will be formalized in the coming days.

Russia, India Resume Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft Talks

In an interview with The Tribune newspaper, Parrikar said, "The Design and Development contract for the fifth generation fighter aircraft (FGFA) with Russia will be signed soon. It will take 8-10 years (for the project to be completed)."

With an approximate cost of $4 billion, the two countries will be working on a fifth generation aircraft prototype. During the negotiations held in December last year, India and Russia agreed to lower the cost of the project by 40% from the earlier estimate of $5.5 billion. As per the Inter-Governmental Agreement signed in October 2007, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) is the designated implementation organization from the Indian side.

Defense Minister Parrikar stated in August last year, "As per the draft R&D contract, the delivery of FGFA to the Indian Air Force has been envisaged to commence after 94 months from the start of the R&D contract. India has spent Rs.1483.15 crore ($295 million) on the preliminary design stage of the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) program. The primary stage was completed in June 2013 based on a contract signed in December 2010 with the Russian side."

Amit Cowsish, former financial advisor, Ministry of Defense, told Sputnik, "I do not think money should be a problem; certainly not at this stage as the R&D cost will be spread over several years. To my knowledge, funds are not earmarked for specific projects over a long period of time, but allocated every year to meet the committed liabilities arising from ongoing contracts and for advances, and possibly one or two installments, against new contracts. Therefore, it cannot be said that allocation for the FGFA project, or for that matter any other project, is generally at the cost of some other project."

Experts are aware that India needs a wide range of aircraft from trainers to transport aircraft and from refuelers to fighter aircraft. The FGFA fits into this assessment because it is a futuristic air superiority aircraft, and also because of the experience gained from the success of the BrahMos missile.

Bharat Karnad, former member of India's National Security Council and security analyst told Sputnik, "Informed speculation suggests that the Modi government has weighed the danger of Russia simply terminating all engagements in the military sphere, which will create a big void that cannot be filled in terms of sourcing hardware and technical assistance for advanced and sensitive projects that cannot be filled, because while Western countries will be happy to sell "cutting edge minus-quality" weapons and weapons platforms, they will be unwilling to cooperate in actual technology transfer of the substantive kind, let alone co-design and co-develop sophisticated weapons platforms of tomorrow."

The Indian Defense Minister also mentioned that three squadrons of Sukhoi will reach India very soon which will keep the Indian Air Force fully operational. Currently the Indian Air Force has 33 squadrons of fighter jets against an actual need for 42.

And surely the Iranians will buy PAKFA, but yes that picture of Darius from 300 is hilarious, even the Iranians dont acceppt that he looked like a wimp
