the air intake doesn't look stealthy at all.

We'll be able to afford about 3. We couldn't even buy 200 F-22's, this requisition will be a shitshow just like they all are.

Russia isn't going to meet us in the air to beat us. They're honing their cyber-attack skills,(chicks dig skills) and they're using our own social media to breed disdain, mistrust and plant the seeds of socialism.

Its probably a massive piece of crap


It’s probably intended to spur us to buy more expensive, shitty F-35’s, while they continue to produce planes that actually work, like the SU-27 family.

You mean like German technology in WWII? What won it for the Allies was the massive production effort by the USA. We provided most of the equipment for the Western Front and the ability for the Russians, along with equipment to mass produce for the Eastern Front.

Will it work as well as their subs?

I guess I am trying to say, will we have to constantly rescue Russian pilots?

Well, they may be right. The US brass are wringing their purses over having something called an intake MANifold.

Thank you comrade.... we like to think since the times of Sputnik, when the world trembled at the sound of our rockets... nevermind.

Intakes look like huge radar reflectors. So much for stealthy.

Russia has always lagged WAY behind the US in aviation engineering/technology.

The Mig-25 (First flight in March 1964) says "Hi"
FWIW, the F-15's first flight was in '72


And I'm thinking the name is actually 'Czechmate'
