True, the mig 1.42/1.44 tails and canards style don't look so sympathetic in term of stealths. However, I feel the need to point out that all the extra stuff popping out from the planes are just doors for weapon bays and of course, the wheels. Though fanart, it's still a good impression of one of the two Shenyang design.flateric said:pleasant to eye, but *underpowered* monster (judging from the nozzles size) with *bad* aerodynamics and zillion RCS hot spots
Sometimes, I have no idea what you're saying.r16 said:a serious find , a trove of treasure for a less than stable mind called r16 who thinks at least half of the nearly 50 pictures he saved should be in series production , at least as a plastic model .

That looks a lot like the F-35, except with two engines...

It is believable that FSW was one of layout of PAKFA before 2007 and China has almost no experience with FSW ergo they won't take such risk to put FSW on their new generation fighter which is so important to them.

100% for sure not !!!
This is a "design" made by an allmost famour Chinese artist named "LEGO" ... just take a look thru this tread, there are several from him !
Sadly he stopped posting new designs at about 4 years ago ... ???

really? How did you know this layout which clearly was come from Russ 4 years ago or just was a coincidence?
hesham said:Hi,
is this a real design ?.
I've heard that too, but I'm not quite sure if that must be the case. I saw some concept art for the JSF that had canards. The complaint I've heard about them is that they constitute a large moving surface in front of the wing. That might be fixed if one were to have the FLCS freeze the canard during cruising flight to prevent RCS-enhancing deflections. Perhaps one would utilize elevons and TVC for pitch during that regime of flight. During WVR, the canards are unfrozen and can act to control the airplane, which is where low RCS is less important.blackkite said:I heard that canard has bad influence for stealth.
RCS hot spots? Where do you see them? I'm not saying you're wrong, it's just that I'm interested in learning more about LO design.flateric said:pleasant to eye, but *underpowered* monster (judging from the nozzles size) with *bad* aerodynamics and zillion RCS hot spots
Wow,historiaMore than just a fan, this guy submitted these designs as part of his thesis in a Beijing university concerning the topic of strake generated vortice interaction with canard vortices.
