Knowing some of the chinese online aviation communities, I think the guy might be posting stuff along the line of "more confirmation that su-57 is not true stealth therefore inferior to j-20"
Isn't that literally what almost everyone on the West's side did at the sight of this image of a prototype?Knowing some of the chinese online aviation communities, I think the guy might be posting stuff along the line of "more confirmation that su-57 is not true stealth therefore inferior to j-20"
Someone made a meme report of Su-57 defecting to Hokkaido based on Zhuhai Airshow image.
I was addressing the video right above, which is the current material we have of the day. Should I also add a footnote underneath my original comment: "also western media also have in the past erroneously attribute a lack of technological advancement to early prototypes".Isn't that literally what almost everyone on the West's side did at the sight of this image of a prototype?
I find it hypocritical to criticize a large group of people for what just a couple of dudes with a camera have done, while at the same time paying no mind to objectively how the majority on the other side have behaved.

My point is, no matter which side you're on; we all have to be above this "haha Russian equipment junk" idiocracy if we have not just functional brains but are also as enthusiastic as we claim to be.

Let the speculation and artist's impressions begin.
Paralay draw everything a long time ago.Let the speculation and artist's impressions begin.

Fast rewind four years back.Any pic to share?
Why is he protesting for?Just visit his profile, although he has deleted most as a sign of protest, some of them are still accessible.

It's been something like 5 years and you're still on this.Thanks @snne but the drawing doesn't reflect what we are seeing here. For example the bay door unfold downward.
@flateric : yes, I will eat my hat if that is a missile bay. But that's not what we are seeing yet.
For example there is no apparent mechanism to refrain the door from closing due to the airstream. Two of the frwd latches are affixed to what appears to be a sliding tray but their geometry don't include fasteners that would counteract repetitive loadings from the airstream. I think that's why @paralay choose to make it open upward despite the lack of available volume, as it is evident in the picture.
Also do you guys really think that this opening is at least 0.5m wide (the span of the suspected missile seen in the alleged launch video)?
What's the point?Do people realize that this this thing was getting unloaded from an an-124
This has happened before, it seems in 2014Do people realize that this this thing was getting unloaded from an an-124
They have been in service with the RuAF for decades now since the fall of the Soviet Union doing heavy lifting and large payload work? Nothing funny or ironic about it.Do people realize that this this thing was getting unloaded from an an-124
It was built in Russia. Only limited number of An-124 were built in Ukraine.from an aircraft built in Ukraine.
And again, without even deploying flaps...P.s.: Short take-off in Zhuhai:
Post in thread 'Su-57 intakes, supercruise performance and 2nd stage engine'The legitimacy of Hurin's posts is usually questionable at best and this is a surprising development, but is this our first pic of the naked engine?
