T-50-1 is now history。Front side it is marked 52 and at rear it is marked 51 why?? anyone?
oh boyT-50-1 has been grounded forever。
Others are being checked for major structural problems,ie cracks in the airframe。
Yet our Indian friends are still dreaming about T-50-4 and T-50-5 on April Fool's Day。
Must be fun: Pak-Fa news thread part 20 - Page 5 - Key Publishing Ltd Aviation Forums
Hmm, that makes sense.T-50-1 is now history。
It has been found with major structural defects and has been accordingly permanently grounded。Its parts,in this case the tail, have been "salvaged" for use on its younger brothers。 Hence the 51 tail and 52 head seen on the picture。
4th and 5th are production models and its minimum one year away from making its first flight.WElll it's april fool's day prank ,but obviously it's fact that PAKFA would have it's new 4th protype revealed to everyone as soon as possible
unfortunately,you won't see them flying in Indian colours before 2020。i wish to see pakfa asap in IAF
