Russian design is crude.A russian may have developed a lower RCS formula years ago, thats great. We have had stealth tech since the 80's. Russia still doesnt have a stealth aircraft and needs the Indians help for funding. Pathetic.

May be pathetic for you. But I won't open the sceret for you if tell you taht Ufimtsev designed firstly was accessed by soviet military designer. And turned down beacuse they knew taht Ufimtsev design may be stealth only in very narrow band of electomagnetic emmitions.

For example. Old soviet radars which works on meter wave length see "stealth" aircraft with same easy as ordinary aircraft. Russian anti-aircraft system use such radar for early warnings. For fine targeting they use bgger freauwancie. But at that stage when you alredy know wher those stealth are, the narrow beam pointed to tagret directly will make reflection no matter stealthy or unstealthy.
So no american "stealth" aircraft will be stealthy over Russia:). Recall U-2 and colonel Powers. They told then that that soveit missile cann't shoot him down. But it happened. Don't make same mistake twice:).
