I’d at least check some forums with a more specific military orientation before dismissing the PAK FA totally out of hand. First off, it’s really not close to an imitation of the F-22—unless you’re going to claim that seeking a low RCS is a sign of F-22 imitation. Additionally, I really doubt that that anyone has the foggiest idea of it’s thrust-to-weight ratio. After all, the prototype isn’t even fitted with the engines that are going to be used in the production version.
Have some links?
I would like to think we are ahead, but hard data (or pointers to hard data) are a lot more satisfying...
I look to milcraft experts here at FR to help me. I am an affectionado of milcraft and study them judiciously. But many here actually have flown or have studied harder than I.
But I do think I can reason to logical conclusions...
