1. The design is obviously pre-stealth..possibly not that important i that it seems to be viewed as a defensive fighter..protect the Rodina..
2. Why all the talk about the plane's radar..I thought that now, if you turn on your radar..you'r dead. Period..

That plane the F-25 was designed as an interceptor.If it really got into a dog fight it would have been turned into dog food since it had very poor maneuverability.
