More beauty in lovely poses

@gadeshi Something equivalent to DAS for Pak FA on cards?

101KS bi-spectral DAS elements are clearly visible and are not a news for today.
Looking forward December the 16-th to look at T-50-6-2 Stage 2 airframe...

All these backflip, spinning tricks are very nice. But i'm still waiting for the T-50 to pull a takeoff like what the F-22 did in Fairford 2010:
Mashallah !! kya ishtyle hai :cool2:

To isko kya kahen? Subhanallah?!!!!!

Almost all fighters with TWR over 1 can make the same move! F22 is not an exception.

Jō Asakura of the keypubs forum hassomething interesting to say
i quote.............
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Excerpt taken from an official company document from earlier this year:
http://www.aviationunion.ru/Files/Nom_5_VIAM.pdf

Впервые в России разработана технология изготовления цианат- эфирных связующих, обеспечивающих работоспособность композиционных материалов до 200°С. Разработанные связующие и композиты обеспечивают конечным материалам комплекс ценных свойств: теплостойкость, высокие прочностные характеристики, ударостойкость и низкое водопоглощение. Модификация циановых эфиров термопластами позволило значительно повысить их вязкость разрушения с сохранением исходных свойств. Разработанные пластики могут быть длительно использованы при температурах до 170°С...

Материалы на основе разработанных связующих (препреги) использованы в ПАО «Компания «Сухой» для изготовления стекло- и сферопластиков перспективных радиопрозрачных обтекателей; углепластики используются при разработке основных силовых конструкций перспективного многоцелевого истребителя -индийского варианта Т-50,а также при отработке возможности расширения области применения ПКМ в существующих изделиях, с учетом более высокой теплостойкости новых материалов.

For the first time in Russia the technology of manufacturing cyanate-ester binders has been developed, enabling the performance of composite materials up to 200°C. Designed binders and composite materials provide a final set of valuable properties: heat resistance, high strength characteristics, impact resistance and low water absorption. Cyanate esters' modification of thermoplastics greatly improve their fracture toughness while maintaining the original properties. The developed plastics can be used for long periods of time at temperatures up to 170°C...

Materials on the basis of these developed binders (prepregs) are used by JSC Company"Sukhoi" for the manufacture of glass and micro-sphere plastics for the future radome; carbon composites are used in the development of the main high strength structures of the future multipurpose fighter - the Indian version of the T-50, as well as when developing the possibility of expanding the scope of PMC composites in existing products, taking into account the higher heat resistance of the new materials.

Either the wording "Indian variant" is basically a discrete way of saying 'Stage 2 prototypes'...or the differences between the Russian and Indian types is more fundamental than just 'source code'.

Russia's T-50 5th Generation Fighter Jets to Enter Service in 2017

26.09.2015

Russia’s Sukhoi T-50 fifth generation prototype fighter jets will enter into service with the Russian Armed Force in 2017, Russian Air and Space Forces Commander Col. Gen. Viktor Bondarev told reporters Saturday.

AKHTUBINSK (Astrakhan Region)(Sputnik) — The T-50 is currently undergoing flight tests that have so far been successful, Bondarev said. Previous reports stated that the aircraft would enter into service in 2016... “Under the program, we will finish testing next year and will begin to receive the T-50 jets in 2017," Bondarev said.

According to Bondarev, the aircraft fully meets the requirements...

Beautiful picture.

Imagine the Sun is the radar transmitter, transmitting in visible spectrum and the camera is the bi-static receiver, receiving in the visible spectrum.

Ignore the colors. Watch only the play of 'illumination and shapings'.

Well now, what do you think?

 

[akshay m]

this is an image of T50-7

sorry, i am not so sure now that it is the T50-7 NOW,


could be the T50-6

ANY WAY GOOD NEWS IS HERE

Current dates for T-50-5R: ( the frankestien prototype the russians created by combining the burnt t50-5 and the unfinished T50-6)
07.10. - The first flight,
11-17.10. - Completion compartment NNPU (cannon) and the fuselage, with the removal of SUNGLASSES left, left and left GO OT,
22-23.10. - Frequency test
09.11. - Distilled in Zhukovsky.


first flight of prototype T50-5R on October 7

No, it's the old T-50-0 static airframe

Yeah, T-50-5-R is not the new one, but repaired T-50-5

[ashdoc]

from the above link it appears that the aircraft may never fly in indian colours

 

[gadeshi]

ok so why is the deal for 36 still struck on costs when the 36 are mfg by dasault and to be brought by india in Flyaway condition from dasault ?

now HAL is out of the picture so why is costs stillan issue ?

HAL wants to get a technologies, which is very reasonable.

The Sukhoi/HAL Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) is a fifth-generation fighter being developed by Russia and India. It is a derivative project from the PAK FA (T-50 is the prototype) being developed for the Indian Air Force (FGFA is the official designation for the Indian version).
