well if its nato reporting name is really 'Firefox' then the russians oughtta beware of Clint Eastwood :P

Engines are not 117S , they are 117 150 kn thrust as compared to 145 kn the IR reduction has been attributed to some engine sleeve sort of system , so it can be integrated i suppose but nothing can be said for sure , can be integrated on current engine or can't be but they have been saying it...

The russians have been shouting their lungs off about this, but you would never believe would you. My god!!!!!!!!!! more swept back wings, lower weight , higher thrust engines,internal weapons bay = greater supercruise speed. Lol good one , i laughed :D

First one is PS'ed......................

Great renderin there , looks really sweet

I thought its use as rivets was new. anyhoooo

Thanx , thats what i also thought, a new material for rivets and fasteners.

Nice post there gb009 Clears a couple of points and raises a few 1. AESA will not be gimballed 2. No rear looking radar (this one really bothers me) but lets see, could be a mistake by the video maker also because the 2 wing mounted L bands will work as one. The slanted thrust vectoring might...

It took me an hour to write that post because like you i don't write BS without thinking , i am patient and i weigh and write my words carefully , and the main reason why it takes me such a long time to reply to you is not because i don't know the principles but the opposite you don't know the...

Stumped means to be at a loss or having no clue , but the russians said we are facing difficulties but work is continuing , maybe you should go check a dictionary . because i don't need to keep up with someone who changes his opinion every other day , first it was a modified flanker then it...

Concession speech ?? i have already buried you . everybody knows that except you that is because you don't want to know , don't worry i will reply just one last time to that BS post of yours as soon as i get time. in the meanwhile you can start a poll and let people vote as to whose technical...

Thanks :) even i am going to stop now , takes too much of time (which i don't have anymore)

Just because you say so? For once stop putting words in people's mouth , all they said was that they were facing difficulties. facing difficulties and being stumped are two very different things. First you say it looks like YF-23 , now you agree it looks like Su-35 geez make up your mind. What...

Just because you said so ? You mean to say those thousands of engineers at saturn and Salyut have been doing nothing but drinking vodka for the past 3 years ? the influence of Su-35 is also evident in Pak fa , which is at the apex of maneuverability.influence is influence it doesn't define the...

My sincere sympathies are with you , but this is not worth wasting our time over. Lets see what you wrote in you previous post You give me a 2007 link in which two companies are at each others throat and you tell me the competition hasn't even started yet. moreover the aircraft will still...

Credible people over at MP.net are saying it is a real photo and there is going to be a flood of them soon by sukhoi PR people. Edit : might be PS'ed too . i dunno , lets wait and see :)

given , you had deleted your posts so i couldn't find it. They made AL 41 ,they used its tech in 117, its not like they are starting from scratch. and you need to brush up your definition of research , research is done on existing technology also , why don't you give me a credible source which...

Very nice!! When kopp's analysis supports your view you use it as an undebatable source and when it doesn't then you just blast him, i remember back in the day when you and P2prada were having a long drawn argument about mmrca and MKI vs SH you were quoting APA as a credible source, good going...

Kopp's Article is out, it is huge ....here it is I just posted the Abstract , the rest of the Article can be read here http://www.ausairpower.net/APA-2010-01.html#mozTocId233428

Why would a SAM operator take such a risk? Agreed, an LPI radar does decrease it to an extent, legacy RWR systems would be rendered quite useless against an agile beam in search mode. if you have any data regarding the performance of modern sensor systems like ALR-94 against an AESA do...
